Malcolm-Jamal Warner's mother breaks silence over son's tragic death
Malcolm-Jamal Warner's mother has spoken publicly for the first time since her son's tragic death. The Cosby Show star, 54, died on 20 July after drowning during a family holiday in Costa Rica and authorities reported he was caught in a strong current while swimming on a beach in Limón. His mum Pamela Warner has now spoken about how she is dealing with his passing with a sense of peace and resilience – declaring: 'For those of you who are at a loss, pained by the suddenness of his departure, ache for his presence or just to hear his voice one more time, to see his beatific smile one more time, be comforted that he was at peace and more importantly, he did not suffer.' Pamela made her statement in a heartfelt Instagram post. Initial reports suggested malcolm's eight-year-old daughter was with him in the water where he died but was quickly pulled out. But the Judicial Investigation Agency of Costa Rica later clarified she had been ashore at the time of the tragedy. Despite efforts by bystanders and the Costa Rican Red Cross, Malcolm-Jamal was pronounced dead at the scene. No lifeguards were present, and officials noted the drowning occurred very rapidly. His official cause of death was listed as asphyxiation by submersion. In her statement, Pamela also reflected on the symbolism of water in her son's life and death, writing: 'Malcolm was birthed through water and transitioned through water. This was his time. 'His mission on earth had been completed.' She also honoured Malcolm-Jamal's legacy, saying he left 'an indelible mark on the world and on countless hearts' and that 'all who met him, however briefly, were better for the encounter.' Pamela described her son as a 'kind, loving man with a huge heart for humanity,' committed to helping others recognise their 'inner strength' and potential for transformation. She added: 'This was his latest mission and work, transformation, in order for you to be fully present in your life.' Pamela also praised Malcolm's talents as an actor, musician, teacher, coach and business partner, noting his Grammy nominations and win. She said: 'Hold close to whatever part of Malcolm's life that touched yours. 'In keeping it near, you keep his spirit alive – nourishing you with the peace, love, joy and light that embodied Malcolm-Jamal Warner.'

Police still investigating death of Brett Gardner's 14-year-old son as potential homicide
Costa Rican authorities are still seeking answers in the tragic death of Miller Gardner. The 14-year-old son of ex-Yankees star Brett Gardner died at Arenas Del Mar Beachfront & Rainforest Resort on March 21, with investigators continuing to determine if the cause will be homicide. 'The purpose of the investigation is precisely to determine whether or not we are dealing with a possible homicide,' a spokeswoman for the Prosecutor's Office of Costa Rica told ESPN on Thursday. 'For this reason, it is not possible at this time to confirm or rule out that a crime has been committed.' 3 Miller Gardner, 14, was vacationing with his family in Costa Rica when he died from carbon monoxide poisoning. Gardner died of carbon monoxide inhalation according to a toxicology report in early April, which noted 'high levels' of the noxious gas in his hotel room, which was adjacent to a mechanical room. The resort denied the validity of a report by the Judicial Investigation Agency of Costa Rica that revealed high levels of carbon monoxide in the Gardner family's hotel room, saying that the high levels were confined to the machine room. Authorities are seemingly still in the first stage of their criminal procedure of collecting and analyzing evidence, with a potential second stage involving formal charges before a trial. Gardner was initially theorized to have died from asphyxiation in his sleep after choking on vomit after food poisoning, but was later revealed to have no windpipe blockage. 3 Miller Gardner (second from right) was the son of Yankee great Brett Gardner (right). The Gardner family has not commented on Miller's death since publishing an obituary for the teen on March 31. 'The void Miller's passing leaves in the hearts of his family, friends, teammates, teachers, coaches and others will be felt for years,' the family wrote. 'Miller's time here with [his friends and family] was brief, but his spirit will carry on forever through those who were impacted by the way he lived. Miller was so blessed with experiences and friendships in his 14 years, and would want other children to have the opportunity to create their own wonderful memories.' 3 Yankees' Brett Gardner during a 2021 game against the Blue Jays. for the NY POST Brett Gardner, 41, played the final of his 14 MLB seasons with the Yankees in 2021. He won the 2009 World Series with the team, collecting an All-Star appearance and a Gold Glove throughout his career, all spent in The Bronx.
