The Office of the Chief Medical Examiner has determined that Lauren Smith-Fields died of "acute intoxication due to the combined effects of fentanyl, promethazine, hydroxyzine, and alcohol," and her death has officially been ruled an accident. 

On what would have been Lauren Smith-Fields' 24th birthday, hundreds of people marched from the police department headquarters to the doorstep of the mayor’s office Sunday to demand answers and to call out the cruel and indifferent behavior the Bridgeport police are accused of.
