Liam Payne’s toxicology results reveal new details about his death

New details have been revealed about Liam Payne’s death on October 16.

Thursday 7 November at press release from the National Criminal and Correctional Service Authority no. 14 revealed that the former One Direction member’s toxicology results are in and have been communicated to his family.

In the 72 hours before his death, Payne — who died in Buenos Aires, Argentina at the age of 31 — had traces of “alcohol, cocaine and prescription antidepressants” in his system, according to the press release translated from Spanish.

“This conclusion was reached after the complete toxicological examinations of urine, blood and vitreous humor,” the press release states.

On October 21, sources confirmed to ABC News that a partial autopsy revealed that Payne had “multiple drugs in his system” at the time of his death. According to ABC’s reporting, one of the drugs found was “pink cocaine,” a recreational drug that generally includes a combination of methamphetamine, ketamine, MDMA — and not necessarily cocaine — per National Capital Poison Center.

The sources also said that “an improvised aluminum pipe” used to ingest drugs was found in Payne’s hotel room.

The same Thursday press release stated that three people have been arrested and charged in Argentina in connection with Payne’s death after falling from a third-floor hotel balcony.

The suspects are charged with abandoning a person followed by death as well as supplying and facilitating narcotics. However, they have not been named.

After Payne fell from the balcony and died, “illegal conduct was discovered from which three individuals were charged with the crimes,” the release said.

One of the suspects is “is the person who accompanied the artist on a daily basis during his stay in the city of Buenos Aires.” Another suspect is a hotel employee accused of supplying Payne with cocaine, and a third is an alleged “drug supplier.”

Prosecutors also said in the release that “self-harm of any kind and/or physical intervention by third parties were ruled out” as contributing causes of his death.

A medical examiner concluded Payne’s death was caused by “multiple trauma” and “internal and external bleeding” from the fall, according to the release.

With relevant data gathered, prosecutors also concluded that the “Strip That Down” singer “was not fully conscious or experiencing a state of appreciable decline or loss of consciousness at the time of the fall.”
