Andre Young Jr.’s Autopsy Offers No Clear Death Explanation
August 29th, 2008Cause of death to rap heavyweight’s son still unknown
It could be several weeks before the cause of Dr. Dre’s son’s death is known. The L.A. County Coroner says further tests have been ordered, since the reason for Andre Young Jr.’s passing wasn’t revealed in an autopsy. He was found unresponsive by his mother this past weekend after he’d reportedly been out with friends. Jenita Porter, Young’s mom, says she’d heard her son snoring a few hours earlier at about 5:30 a.m. “We don’t know yet why he died,” police Capt. Ed Winter tells People magazine. “There were no signs of trauma or foul play. We’ll be doing toxicology and other tests, which will take up to six weeks.” Young was 20.

I saw your segment on voting rights restoration. The best way I found to get the rights restored faster is by the ACLU. Yes, I know of some one who went through the regular hoops to get her rigths restored. When I told her about the ALCU. She completed another application and they say that this new application will be looked at faster. She now has two aplications in. Try the ACLU!!! This was done for free.

I am so sorry to hear about the lost of your son I will have you and your family in my prayers…..
BET you have the wrong picture posted on your website. That is Curtis aka the hood surgeon.
No one can understand the pain,grief a parent feels when you lose a chld unless you have been there. i have recently lost my 18 year old son . he was an innocent bysander to a drive-by shooting. my life as dre’s is forever changed you go thru so many emtional rollercoaster rides wanting the nightmare to end but it never does. People say stay strong which is hard to do and doesn’t make sense when you’ve buried your child but GOD gives you what you need to make it and the days you feel you can’t He carrires you thru. sometimes you cant utter a prayer for yourself so we all must pray for dr.dre and family. its gonna be a long road as i’m trvaveling the same road but we must continue to walk the path and journey by FAITH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! LOVEYA DRE!!!!!!
