Charlbi Dean died of bacterial sepsis in August, the New York City medical examiner confirmed to Fox News Digital. She was 32.

 

Dean's death was ruled an accident. The medical examiner listed her cause of death as "bacterial (Capnocytophaga) sepsis complicating asplenia due to remote blunt force trauma of torso."

 

Dean was reportedly involved in a car collision in 2009. In addition to the removal of her spleen, she suffered broken ribs and a broken back.

 

Dean's brother, Alex Jacobs, spoke to "Rolling Stone" a few days after her death and explained that Charlbi had experienced "minor" symptoms. She asked her fiancรฉ, Luke Volker, to take her to the emergency room. She died a few hours later.

 

At the time, it was revealed her death was due to a "sudden illness."

 

 

"We still aren't entirely sure [what happened]," Jacobs told the outlet. "There's an autopsy being done, which we know might take quite a while. But what we have heard [that] there was a viral infection in her lungs."

 

"[The spleen is] involved in fighting off infections, and that could have had something to do what happened," Jacobs said. "Her spleen not being there just added on to the reason why she perhaps couldn't fight it off."
