I don't think it was just cocaine...Doc Gooden did all sorts of Blow in the 80's and he's still here.
When I see words like "catastrophic organ failure", it lets me know his body shut down.
Maybe all that partying caught up to him.
I'm only speculating since Hanson was just 29, but damn RIP to the man.
This is sad.


Kidneys
— "Cocaine use can impair kidney function by a variety of mechanisms. Cocaine-induced rhabdomyolysis is a significant cause of acute renal failure. Cocaine use by hypertensive patients enhances their decline in kidney function and the progression from hypertensive nephrosclerosis to end-stage renal disease . While cocaine promotes atherosclerosis in renal vessels, cocaine-induced renal infarction is relatively rare."

"High doses of cocaine are also associated with toxic reactions including acute liver injury which can be severe and even fatal."

Also some Cocaine could possibly be cut with other dangerous substances or additives which in conjunction with the Cocaine can cause severe organ failure as well.

I hate to be that guy, but had this been a n1gga, drugs would be the first thing out of everyone's mouth... Everywhere I saw this story, for the most part the comments have been on some :whoa: about drugs being the cause.

Yeah the media clearly treating this with kid gloves. Unlike Odom a few weeks ago

He probably suffered deeply from depression and substance abuse (I'm guessing). But I hate to see anyone die this young in this manner.
