Bobbi Kristina Friend Dies, Family Believes He Overdosed After Relapsing On Heroin Sad news… One of Bobbi Kristina’s friends, former roommate and admitted sometimes dealer Steven Stepho has died. According to Radar Online reports : Bobbi Kristina Brown‘s former drug dealer Steven Stepho was found dead of a suspected overdose Monday, RadarOnline.com has learned exclusively. A source close to Stepho told Radar that his “family and friends suspect it was a drug overdose,” and that the 22-year-old had a fatal relapse after trying to turn his life around. “He’s been on the path to sobriety for a while — attending AA meetings — but they believe that he fell back into using heroin or with mixing it,” the source said. Radar confirmed Stepho’s death with the Fulton County Medical Examiner’s office, who have yet to determine the exact cause of death pending results of a toxicology test, expected in about two weeks, as it’s being conducted in a private lab. On a page of Georgia’s Roswell Funeral Home , Stepho’s family said they “would appreciate [if mourners would not] wear black to the Celebration of Life Service, [as] his favorite colors were Blue and White.” Stepho told Radar less than four months ago he’d helped Whitney Houston‘s daughter and her partner Nick Gordon “get [drugs] sometimes, but not regularly.” As RadarOnline.com previously reported, the 22-year-old Stepho has been twice arrested over the past two years in connection with possession of and intent to sell heroin. He was found with 5.8 grams of heroin and arrested in connection with drug trafficking in Oct. 2013, at a time when he had already been on probation. After pleading guilty, Stepho was sentenced to up to a year behind bars and placed on probation for 11 years. In his chat with Radar in March, Stepho claimed that he’d turned over a new leaf when it came to drugs, as he said he had “a great job and a child on the way.” “That part of my life is way in the past,” he said. “I made mistakes and have paid my dues for those mistakes.” Brown, who remains clinging to life in an Atlanta area hospice, had other friends caught up deep in drugs, such as her childhood pal Chelsea Bennett, who fatally overdosed last year; Paige Thompson, who was imprisoned after heroin was found in her home; and Gordon, whose own issues with drugs have been well documented. This is sad. We don’t understand how people start using heroin in the first place considering how lethal it is. Facebook

Family Hires Additional Security For Bobbi Kristina’s Looming Death Bobbi Kristina’s family and friends are gathering to say goodbye to her as she rests in hospice and has been taken off all life aides. In the meantime, to preserve her dignity after death, the family is taking extra precaution to make sure that no one is able to snap intrusive photos on the day her body is eventually removed from the building. Via FoxNews : Bobbi Kristina Brown’s condition has worsened and she is barely clinging to life, a source close to the family tells FOX411. “She barely has any signs of life, hardly any vitals,” the insider said. “Security has been beefed up and even local law enforcement have been called because the families have been told that death is now imminent and they want to make sure that photographers don’t get pictures of her body being removed.” Brown, 22, was found face down and unresponsive in a bathtub in her Atlanta area home on Jan. 31. Last week she was removed from the hospital, taken off all medications and moved to hospice care. Prior to being moved to hospice, Bobbi Kristina was airlifted to specialists in Chicago to get a second opinion on her condition and options for treatment. “They too confirmed what Atlanta doctors had been saying that there was no hope”, the source continued. “That’s when she was taken off all meds and any artificial means of support.” We are told the trip was made to Chicago to convince Bobby Brown that he “truly had done all he could” in helping his daughter. “It seems that he had to get a certain amount of confirmation before really letting go,” the source added. “That trip is what convinced him to allow them to take her off her meds and to ‘go naturally’.” So sad.
