Each death investigated by the CCOCME involves gathering information and may include testing of blood, body fluids, or tissues that is done outside the CCOCME by forensic specialty laboratories and consultant agencies, their website states.

"The CCOCME maintains compliance with national death investigation standards by completing investigations on 90 percent of cases within 90 days. Many death investigations will be completed in a much shorter time frame, although a few will require a longer time frame to adequately evaluate all evidence and information."

Toxicology results may later confirm Adam tragically died of a fentanyl overdose following the update from his grieving father, who is devastated over losing his son.
