At just 25 years old, the star of the hit reality TV show 'Sister Wives' was found dead in his Arizona home, with an autopsy report revealing a heartbreaking cause of death. This article delves into the details of Garrison's final days, his battle with personal demons, and the legacy he leaves behind.
A Battle Behind the Scenes
Garrison Brown (25), known for his vibrant presence on the TLC series 'Sister Wives,' has left the world in a manner that has both fans and family seeking answers and solace. The Coconino County Medical Examiner's report, obtained by 'People' magazine, confirmed the young star's cause of death as a gunshot wound to the head, ruling it a suicide.
While Garrison's life on screen portrayed the complexities of polygamist family dynamics, off-screen, he faced his own profound challenges.
The autopsy report highlighted a contributing factor to his tragic end: ethanol intoxication. With a blood alcohol level far exceeding the legal limit, it's clear Garrison was struggling with more than just the pressures of fame.
The report notes a contributing factor in his death was ethanol intoxication, otherwise known as alcohol poisoning. Per the autopsy, Garrison's blood alcohol level was .307% based on his iliac blood analysis and .370% based on his vitreous analysis. (The legal limit in the U.S. is .08% and anything above .40% is considered potentially fatal.)
As news of Garrison's passing spread, his mother, Janelle Brown, took to Instagram to express her grief, describing her son as "a bright spot in the lives of all who knew him."
"Kody and I are deeply saddened to announce the loss of our beautiful boy Robert Garrison Brown," she captioned a series of images of her son. "He was a bright spot in the lives of all who knew him. His loss will leave such a big hole in our lives that it takes our breath away. We ask that you please respect our privacy and join us in honoring his memory." (Kody also posted the same statement on his own Instagram page.)
His father, Kody Brown, echoed these sentiments, leaving fans to mourn the loss of a young man who had become a familiar face in their lives.
Garrison's death comes at a time of significant change for the Brown family. With Janelle and Kody's separation announced just months before, and other family members also going their separate ways, the family dynamic that fans had come to know on 'Sister Wives' was already shifting. Garrison's passing adds a poignant and painful chapter to the family's public story.
