(L.A.) Jeffrey Peterson, 41, Died at a Residence

Case Number: 2023-15255

Los Angeles County is reporting the death of a 41-year-old White/Caucasian male that occurred at his residence.

The coroner’s office has identified the man as Jeffery Peterson.

Manner of Death: Accident

Cause of Death: Fentanyl Intoxication

RIP JEFFREY PETERSON (March 14, 1982 – November 6, 2023)

Formal pronouncement of death was made on Monday at 3:14 p.m.

The government investigator had originally misspelled the decedent’s forename as Jeffery before correcting it to Jeffrey.

The Department of Medical Examiner publicly disclosed the COD ruling on January 19, presumably after the results of tox screening came back positive for the drug.
