The cause of death of Lamar Odom’s best friend, Jamie Sangouthai, who passed away on Sunday, (June 14, 2015) has now been revealed.
While there was much speculation about how Sangouthai passed away, it was learned that while his death was drug related, it wasn’t an overdose.
According to reports Sangouthai died from a “flesh-eating disease caused by dirty needles.” The Los Angeles County Coroner says it was necrotizing fasciitis, a bacterial skin infection, and intravenous narcotism, IV drug abuse.
It’s also being reported that Sangouthai went to the hospital to get treated for an infection in his arm, but, according to the coroner, “the disease spreads quickly and often becomes life-threatening.”
On Sunday, Sangouthai passed away in a Los Angeles hospital. Shortly reports started surfacing, Odom’s estranged wife Khloé Kardashian took to Twitter and confirmed the news.
