Earlier this year, Lil Keed died at the age of 24 of organ failure. He had complained of stomach pain in the days prior to his passing.
Because of his age, cause of death, and past struggles with drug abuse, there has long been speculation he ODed on lean.
However, his family has insisted he died of natural causes.
This week, Los Angeles County Medical Examiner/Coroner’s Office released his official cause of death: eosinophilia.
Typically eosinophilia is caused by a parasitic infection, an allergic reaction, or cancer.
Keed's mom said the finding justifies what she has been saying about her son's death
“7 months after learning about the passing of my son, I’ve received his official cause of death from the doctors. In grieving my son’s death, myself and the rest of the family were caused a lot of pain by the lies and rumors spread on the blogs and the internet with false information about Raqhid’s passing,” Woods wrote. “Today, we’ve confirmed that Raqhid died from natural causes with no drugs or alcohol found in his system.”
She continued: “I’m still grieving and I’m still mourning from what our family has had to go through the last 7 months and I refuse to let the lies go any further. I’m glad that the truth is finally out and I ask that everyone please be respectful of his family and his legacy. Long Live Keed.”
