RIP SADIA MALLORY (November 4, 1970 – January 18, 2025)

Formal pronouncement of death was made on Saturday at 1:21 a.m.

Ruling by the deputy medical examiner was published in mid-April, presumably after the results of tox screening had come back from the lab. This is considered an accidental, i.e., unintentional, drug overdose.

In the medical examiner’s parlance, “private residence” indicates it was not the decedent’s own home.
