Disturbing Details Found In Lil Peep's Autopsy Report

Posted by Abbie Anker on Sunday, May 19, 2024

A few weeks after his death, Lil Peep's autopsy report was released. In the report, there were some disturbing details that highlighted what led to his death. Per Autopsy Files, his cause of death was the combination of alprazolam (or Xanax) and fentanyl — an opioid drug used for pain management — interacting in his system. Together these two drugs are considered to be a very fatal mixture (via Addiction Resource). The autopsy report concluded the use of those drugs by Lil Peep was determined to be accidental.

The report also revealed that his body had signs of medical intervention via defibrillator. When the rapper was initially found unresponsive on his bus, attempts were made to revive him, per CNN, but he never regained consciousness. Lil Peep was fully dressed when he died, wearing a vest, "multi-colored" pants, and even still wearing his boots. His fingernails had chipped red paint on them and dirt underneath. He was wearing a variety of jewelry and had multiple facial piercings. 

Overall, the autopsy reported that outwardly Lil Peep looked healthy and normal — if thin. He was about 6 feet tall and weighed 158 pounds. Likely due to his young age and outwardly healthy appearance, Lil Peep's death was a shock for many in the music industry, even though the rapper was very candid about his drug use and even rapped about it often (via Study Breaks).
