An attorney for Bobbi Kristina Brown’s boyfriend says he hopes new details about what led to her death puts to rest “all the negativity” that surrounds his client.

The 22-year-old daughter of singers Whitney Houston and Bobby Brown was found face-down and unresponsive in a bathtub in her suburban Atlanta townhome in early 2015 and died in hospice care about six months later.

A medical examiner says Bobbi Kristina Brown’s face was immersed in water and she had cocktail of drugs in her system, which led to her death.

The medical examiner says investigators could not determine if the death was accidental or intentional, or if it was a suicide or homicide.

Randy Kessler, an attorney for boyfriend Nick Gordon, said he wasn’t surprised by the findings, and that Gordon has “always maintained his innocence.”
