Singer Aaron Carter's Death Ruled Accidental Drowning Due to Inhalants and Sedatives

Aaron Carter's death was ruled an accident caused by drowning after inhaling compressed gas and taking Xanax.
Carter accidentally drowned in his bathtub due to inhaling difluoroethane, a propellant in air dusters, and taking alprazolam, a sedative.
The coroner determined Carter was incapacitated in the bathtub, leading to drowning, from the effects of the substances found in his system.
Carter had struggled with addiction and mental health issues throughout his life.
He found fame as a child singer, appearing on Nickelodeon and Disney Channel, and later released an album in 2018.
