My father passed in 2022 by “accidental overdose” which I just can’t accept. He was the epitome of a functioning addict. I personally believe that the town it happened in was just too overwhelmed with drug related deaths that they brushed my father’s death under the rug with no real investigation. Just a few weeks prior he had an altercation with the person that was with him at his TOD. They seemed to conveniently make up the day of his death and did some cocaine together. My father started having chest pains and told them to call an ambulance but that call wasn’t placed for another 21 minutes. By the time ems arrived he had passed alone in his room while the other party was outside with his phone,wallet and god knows what else of his. 
THE CRAZIEST PART! The police found a video the other party took of my father seizing and foaming at the mouth which in itself should have got this person time in jail. 
My father had been doing speed since before I was born he didn’t even entertain anything that would slow him down but when ems made it to him they found a Xanax in his mouth that the other party had placed. Police chalked it up to the other party “doing strange things because they were high”. Days after his death the party involved was recorded bragging about giving my father a “speedball” to kill him over the former dispute yet nothing was EVER done. All too conveniently for the detective on his case he retired just a two months after my father’s death and nothing was ever fallowed up on.  I’m sick of the justice system picking and choosing who they deem important enough to give justice and leaving the family’s with nothing but questions. 
I know he’s never coming back but the least they could do is keep the other person off the streets. 
 

I don’t know how to live with the ruling of my fathers “Accidental passing”
