The autopsy report is finally in, and it reveals that Aldridge died alone with no sign of drug or alcohol ingestion, but that he was wearing two rubber suits, had bound his own hands and feet behind his back, and died from “accidental mechanical asphyxia”, or hypoxyphilia. “It is not a criminal matter at this point,” a prosecutor said.
