Los Angeles Model Nichole Coats' Death Ruled as Accidental Overdose, Not Linked to Other Model's Murder

Investigations continue into the homicide of model Maleesa Mooney, as the death of model Nichole Coats, earlier suspected to be linked to Mooney's case, is confirmed as an accidental overdose from cocaine and alcohol.

The death of Los Angeles model Nichole Coats has been deemed an accidental overdose from cocaine and alcohol, not a homicide as initially suspected. Coats' body was discovered in her downtown L.A. apartment on September 10.
Los Angeles County Medical Examiner's Office dismissed the possibility that Coats' death was linked to the murder of another model, Maleesa Mooney, whose body was found in her downtown L.A. apartment two days after Coats' death.
Coats' family, particularly her mother Sharon, expressed skepticism over the accidental overdose ruling, indicating suspicion of foul play. Her mother described having unanswered questions and described her daughter's death as a nightmare.
Coats also worked as a beauty product sales representative and had been anticipating an upcoming vacation to Cancun, Mexico, as indicated by her mother.
The death of Maleesa Mooney is still under investigation, treated as a homicide. Mooney was two months pregnant at the time of her death, as confirmed by her sister, Jourdin Pauline. Her family is seeking answers and insists on bringing the perpetrator to justice.
