After new details on Aaron Carter's death have come to light, his team is speaking out.
The Los Angeles County Medical Examiner-Coroner determined that the "Aaron's Party" singer died from drowning in a bathtub from the effects of alprazolam and difluoroethane, according to online records obtained by E! News April 18. Following the news, Kelly K Public Relations and Holly Davidson of ICT PR, who represented the former child star, shared that closing this case allows them to move forward with honoring him.
"We are glad this case is finally closed so we can have a celebration of life and send him off to rest," they noted in part in an April 19 statement to E! News, adding, "Our team actively tried to implement a plan to rehabilitate a recovery to health, however, due to outside influences and triggering dysfunctional relationships, these circumstances made it a challenge."
The reps also noted that they "don't believe the story ends here."
As noted in the coroner's report, Aaron's death—which was ruled an accident—listed the effects of alprazolam, which is commonly sold under the brand Xanax, and difluoroethane, a compressed gas found in air spray cleaners, as secondary causes for his passing.
Aaron died at the age of 34 on Nov. 5. At the time, his rep confirmed to E! News that the "Candy" singer was found unresponsive that morning in his Southern California residence.
The LA Sheriff's Department said in a Nov. 5 press release to E! News that deputies responded to a 9-1-1 call from a house sitter, who stated that she found a male unresponsive in the bathtub of the house. Per the release, the house sitter was asked to begin CPR before deputies arrived. Shortly after the deputies' arrival, members of the fire department arrived and pronounced Aaron dead at the scene.
Following the loss, Aaron's twin sister Angel Carter honored him by co-hosting the Songs For Tomorrow benefit concert with Lance Bass. At the Jan. 18 event, Aaron and Angel's older brother Nick Carter performed a few songs, including a new single inspired by his late brother, "Hurts to Love You." The gathering raised money for the children's mental health organization On Our Sleeves.
Aaron's passing came nearly one year after he welcomed a baby boy named Prince with Melanie Martin, who also spoke out after Aaron's cause of death was determined.
"I am still in shock and still miss Aaron every day," Melanie told TMZ April 18. "I don't understand the chain of events and this report only has us asking more questions."
