Malcolm was my person, more than a son. We had a bond and kinship that was deep and special and irreplaceable. We spoke nearly every day about everything - his life, plans, music, dreams."He would never knowingly take a pill with fentanyl, ever.

He wanted to live and was excited about the future. The hole in my heart will always be there."She went on to describe Miller's laugh as "infectious and bright" and talked about how her son's music "spoke to many people all over the world".The Los Angeles County Medical Examiner and Coroner ruled that Miller died as a result of a lethal combination of fentanyl, cocaine and alcohol.To stay up to date with all the latest news, make sure you sign up to one of our newsletters here.Reavis' lawyer, Cori Ferrentino, told.
