(L.A.) Justen Longobardi, 24, Ended His Life

Case Number: 2024-01234

Los Angeles County is reporting the death of a 24-year-old White/Caucasian male that occurred at his residence.

The coroner’s office identified the young man as Justin Longobardi.

Manner of Death: Suicide

Cause of Death: Acute Bupropion and Olanzapine Toxicity

RIP JUSTEN LONGOBARDI (February 3, 1999 – January 19, 2024)

Formal pronouncement of death was made on Friday at 6:21 a.m.

The government investigator had initially spelled the decedent’s forename as “Justin” on January 19. The spelling was changed to “Justen” on February 3.

Ruling by the deputy medical examiner was published on March 27, presumably after the results of tox screening had come back positive for the drugs.

Bupropion is a prescription atypical antidepressant medication that carries an FDA black box warning for increased risk of suicidal thoughts and behaviors in children, adolescents, and young adults up to age 24.
