Since he died on October 16 after falling from a hotel window in Argentina, speculation and alleged leaks about the circumstances of the death of One Direction member Liam Payne have not ceased. Now, the Argentine prosecutor’s office has published a report in which it reveals the substances found in the singer’s body and the accusations made so far.
The Public Ministry of the South American country is investigating three people for “abandonment of a person followed by death and supply and facilitation of narcotics.” The first of the accused is the person who accompanied the artist on a daily basis during his stay in Buenos Aires and is accused of the three aforementioned crimes.
The second is a hotel employee who must answer for having provided cocaine to Payne in the hotel and the third is another narcotic supplier, who provided the drugs to the singer at different times on October 14, who is charged with the same crime. Both are charged with two clearly proven supplies.
The Prosecutor’s Office report also reveals the substances found in the One Direction member’s body. The results of the toxicological studies – carried out on urine, blood and vitreous humor and already communicated to his family – show that, in his last 72 hours, Payne “only” had traces of “a polydrug use of alcohol, cocaine and a prescribed antidepressant”.
The thanatologists from the Forensic Medical Corps (CMF) who performed the autopsy concluded that Payne’s death occurred due to “polytrauma” and “internal and external bleeding”as a result of the fall that the musician suffered from the balcony of the third-floor room of the hotel in the Buenos Aires neighborhood of Palermo where he was staying.
The report determines that all the injuries that the artist presented were compatible with those caused by the fall from a height and that self-harm of any kind was ruled out. and also the physical intervention of third parties. They also highlight that the victim did not adopt a reflex posture to protect himself during the fall, so, for the moment, it can be inferred that he could have fallen into a state of semi or total unconsciousness.
«For the Prosecutor’s Office, that situation also would rule out the possibility of a conscious or voluntary act on the part of the victim, since, in the state he was going through, he did not know what he was doing nor could he understand it,” the document continues.
