Hayden Panettiere
Died From Fentanyl-Laced Oxy, Sources
Drug Dealer DEA Target

Hayden Panettiere took one fatal pill the day she died, and multiple law enforcement sources believe it was oxycodone laced with fentanyl.

Our sources — all connected to the case and with direct knowledge — say Hayden had a “long time drug dealer” in Los Angeles, who was providing her several black-market prescription drugs, including oxycodone.

We’re told Hayden took several drugs she purchased from her dealer on the flight from L.A. to South Carolina the day before she died. Authorities believe she took an oxy the morning of her death, and they think that pill was laced with fentanyl.

We’re told the DEA in Los Angeles is actively piecing together the relationship between Hayden and her drug dealer, attempting to trace the fatal pill back to him.

The case has shades of Mac Miller, where a drug dealer was convicted of supplying the rapper with drugs — including some laced with fentanyl — that killed him.

Our law enforcement sources caution … everything hinges on the toxicology results which are pending, but their working theory is that a fentanyl-laced oxy pill killed Hayden.

As we reported, when first responders arrived at the condo where Hayden and her boyfriend, Brian Hickerson, were staying, he gave them a bag of her prescription meds. It would be telling if some of those pills were fentanyl-laced.

Brian administered Narcan to an unresponsive Hayden before paramedics arrived, to no avail.

In addition to South Carolina law enforcement, we’ve learned the DEA in both South Carolina and L.A. are conducting the investigation.

Brian Hickerson’s magnetic charm kept Hayden Panettiere coming back to him despite their rocky relationship over the years, this according to Brian’s sister.

Ashley Hickerson told the Daily Mail … “If I can say one thing about Brian, it’s that he is the most charismatic person and he draws you in.” Ashley also said she understood why Hayden was with Brian, who’s fun and can make you laugh no matter what.

Hayden and Brian began dating in 2018 and stayed together on and off until the actresss’ suspected overdose death on August 16 in Greenville, South Carolina. Brian and his brother, Zach, found Hayden’s body and called 911. Her cause and manner of death are pending the results of toxicology tests.

As you know, Brian had a history of domestic violence against Hayden, who accused him of punching her in 2020, according to court docs, obtained by TMZ.

The docs say Hayden called the cops on Brian after an argument turned physical in their L.A. apartment. Bryan was arrested and charged with felony domestic violence, but he later reached a global resolution in that case and one in Wyoming. He was sentenced to 360 days in jail with 358 days suspended, and he also served 12 months of unsupervised probation.

Court docs reveal that Bryan even sent Hayden threatening text messages after his 2020 arrest for domestic violence. In addition, Brian was reportedly arrested in 2010 and charged with assault and battery by mob, which did not involve violence against Hayden.

Brian’s sister, Ashley, told the Daily Mail … “He did seek treatment and he was getting help. He did own up to his s–t.” Ashley went on … ‘We all have our demons. Brian was not raised that way. It wasn’t until he got into drugs that he went south.”

Hayden Panettiere Found Dead by a Friend, 911 Call of a Female in ‘Cardiac Arrest’

Hayden Panettiere
Found Dead By Friend In South Carolina Home …
911 Call For ‘Unresponsive Female’ In ‘Cardiac Arrest’

Hayden Panettiere was found dead by a friend inside a South Carolina home … and Emergency Medical Service workers responded to a call of a person in “cardiac arrest” and an “unresponsive female,” TMZ has learned.

Law enforcement sources tell us … Hayden’s friend called 911 at 1:51 pm Sunday to report that the actress was unresponsive and in cardiac arrest inside the residence in Greenville, SC. It’s unclear if Hayden’s on-again, off-again boyfriend Brian Hickerson placed the call.

We’re told Greenville police officers and EMS workers quickly responded and paramedics attempted to resuscitate Hayden using “advanced cardiac life support.” Our sources say this treatment builds on CPR by adding special medicines, breathing tubes, and heart rhythm tracking.

We’re told paramedics also did chest compressions on Hayden, but nothing could bring her back to life and she was pronounced dead at 2:32 p.m.

Police say there were no initial signs of foul play and the circumstances surrounding Hayden’s death did not appear to be suspicious. The Greenville County coroner will perform an autopsy Monday to determine a cause and manner of death.

Hayden began her career as a child star in TV and film, and was best known for her roles in the hit series “Heroes” and the musical drama “Nashville.” She also landed major roles in other movies such as “Remember the Titans,” “Raising Helen,” “Ice Princess” and “Scream 4.”

Hayden was 36.

Hayden Panettiere is opening up about a terrifying experience she had with a naked Hollywood star, revealing she was trapped alone in bed with him on a boat.

The actress sat down for an interview with Jay Shetty during Monday’s episode of his “On Purpose” podcast and, at one point, their convo turned to the traumatic boat incident, which Hayden wrote about in her new memoir, “This Is Me: A Reckoning.”

Waiting for your permission to load the Twitter Tweet.

Check out the clip … Shetty first brings up the harrowing memory, and then Hayden goes into a long explanation, saying she was only 18 at the time and incapable of being fully aware of her surroundings. Even worse, Hayden said she was set up by an industry friend she trusted and viewed as a protector.

That so-called friend led her down into a small room on the boat while at sea and physically put her into bed with the “undressed man,” who Hayden described as “very famous.”

Hayden said after the friend left the room, she became “ferocious,” telling herself “this is not happening,” while scrambling around for some place to hide. Watch the rest of the clip to find out how it all ended.

Scary stuff!
