New details about the tragic death of Naya Rivera have been made public.
Full story below…
The ‘Glee’ actress lost her life after accidentally drowning in Lake Piru during a boat ride with her four year old son, Josey.
Today saw the findings of her autopsy shared and paired with previously unpublicised information about the 33-year-old’s final moments.
Per the report from the Ventura County Medical Examiner, Rivera climbed into the water and swam together with her son. But once she had helped him back on to the boat, he “noticed the decedent put her arm up in the air and yelled ‘help.’ The decedent then disappeared in to the water.”
As for what may have caused Rivera (who the report notes “knew how to swim well”) to drown, the following noted that she had previous problems vertigo, a recent sinus infection, and had a small sums of prescribed amphetamines in her system.
Regarding specificity of the latter, toxicology tests showed she had small, therapeutic amounts of the anti-anxiety drug diazepam. Also identified in her system were traces of appetite suppressant phentermine.
Rivera’s blood alcohol concentration was 0.016 and discovered at the scene were “Three 12 ounce White Claw alcohol cans were located near [her] purse. One of the cans was empty, one was open and was about 3⁄4 full, and one was unopened. There was a bag with food items on a bench seat near the front of the boat.”
It’s important to note, however, that they did not identify physical conditions or drugs as factors in her death – the cause of which has officially been deemed accidental drowning.
Though Rivera died on July 8, she was found five days later. A fact that the Ventura County Sheriff’s Office attributes to the likelihood of her trapped in thick vegetation underwater for several days before floating to the surface.
Our thoughts and prayers remain with Rivera’s loved ones.
That place is cursed. I’m not trying to be funny but she was a great swimmer and took her adderall. Something pulled her under.
yeah. i personally think the water called her too.
I just don’t understand how she was able to swim with her son, helped him in the boat but wouldn’t swim and saved herself? I also can’t imagine someone going into a lake who couldn’t swim well. So heartbreaking
It’s difficult to image what happened exactly.
If she had reached the boat super close then all that wouldn’t have happened.
Her son was wearing a vest, I’m assuming she got him as close as possible to the boat and then the tragedy happened.
Her body probably got exhausted from swimming. Perhaps she got a feet cramp because of changes to the temperature in the water??
Her ex white husband probably hired a hit man to drown this poor chick smh. White men love to do this sh#t, learned it from sister act!
You are evil trash mocking her, I hope it happens to someone in your trashy family if the drugs or alcohol abuse don’t kill them first.
Clarkson, you are certified retarded lmao…I can see you now sitting in a chair trying to act like you can function without the medications 🤣 You don’t even know how stuck on stupid you truly are! Get that life 😂
I’m about to say… I know this ain’t fancy bish. She won’t say this evil stuff unless somebody stay in her lane. Clarkson u nasty troll a$$. U White little ding-dong 🥢🥢🥢
You tell her.
Nessie got her 😂🤣😂🤣 she’s a mermaid beneath the sea now.
Your day will come.
I’m all for let’s laugh about anything, but there are limits to everything.
Some of you people are heartless.
If you look up the history with that lake, it’s said from previous victims and victims’ families that there are whirlpools and suction zones. People will swim and just be pulled under. She prob was being pulled down from the whirlpool :/ it also should be noted that for DECADES…the families of past victims have been pleading with the government to put up signs regarding the hazardous conditions of the lake but clearly they won’t do anything. It’s disgusting the government knows about this yet decides to ignore their pleas and pain. It’s just a tragedy, gone way too soon.
Now the last memory her child will ever have of her, is her screaming for help. Sounds like pills and therapy for life to me ugh
It’s still strange that there were 7 other reported deaths between ’94 and ’00, and zero for the last 20 years.
So are you saying that the Nessie is real?
