Aaron Carter's Toddler Son Sues Doctors, Pharmacies for Father's Wrongful Death

Suit alleges medications were improperly prescribed and dispensed without cause, resulting in impaired judgment, mental health deterioration, and ultimately, Aaron Carter's fatal accident.

Aaron Carter's nearly 2-year-old son, Princeton Lyric Carter, has filed a wrongful death lawsuit against doctors and pharmacies, alleging that they played a significant role in his father's death by improperly prescribing and dispensing medications that impaired his judgement and mental health.
The lawsuit, filed by Princeton's mother, Melanie Martin, claims that drugs including hydrocodone, oxycodone and alprazolam were prescribed without medical reasoning and knowing Aaron's mental health and psychiatric condition.
The prescription medications are reported to have led to a negative impact on Aaron Carter's wellbeing that ultimately led to his death, when combined with his known history of psychiatric conditions.
One of the named defendants in the lawsuit is Walgreens, among others, signaling that pharmacies are equally held accountable for the singer's wrongful death. The lawsuit seeks unspecified damages.
Aaron Carter’s death was initially attributed to the effects of difluoroethane and alprazolam and was ruled accidental. However, the lawsuit suggests that the cause of the singer’s death was more complex, taking into account the potential harmful effects of inappropriate prescriptions.
