According to TMZ, a department representative denies the police indicated a robbery or homicide investigation was underway and couldn’t confirm a firm cause of death until the toxicology results returned. They did offer a puzzling addition to these details.
“We do not know at this time if she is a victim of a crime so this is a unique situation,” the Albuquerque Police Department representative added. Her family also wanted to note that Sophia Leone was merely a stage name, wanting to not draw more attention to the situation.
