But it appears the 25-year-old had more concerns going on in his private life and turned to alcohol to cope with the pain.

As per The Sun, Garrison Brown had three roommates at the time of his death: Tyler, Cheyenne, and Addison. The publication also obtained access to the police report, detailing the horrific details of the day.

“Addison stated that he has had conversations with [Garrison] about him being depressed lately,” the police report allegedly says. “He stated that [Garrison] is an alcoholic and drinks every night.”

The report goes on to say that Addison alleged Garrison seemed “intoxicated” the night before his death. However, Addison did not seem to think that Garrison was in danger.

The Sun adds that Cheyenne confirmed Addison’s account. Cheyenne also believed that Garrison and his ex-girlfriend were having problems, which potentially contributed to his alcohol addiction.

The TLC Star Texted His Mother Before His Death

According to police records, it seems that Garrison also reached out to his mother Janelle just before his death. Janelle indicated that she received “troubling” texts from her son and believed something was wrong. The next day, she sent her son Gabriel to check on Garrison. Unfortunately, Garrison had already passed away when Gabriel arrived at his home.

In the wake of Garrison’s passing, many family members have posted on their own social media channels. They thank fans for their thoughts and prayers and ask for peace and privacy as they navigate this difficult chapter.

It’s not immediately clear what will happen to Sister Wives now, but many viewers think it’s time for TLC to end the series. The never-ending family drama was one thing, but now someone has died.

  1. I hope that none of the family of this young man will profit from his death. Sister Wives has run its course and should not return for this tragedy to be televised.

  2. since there are no longer any sister wives the show would be pointless regardless of anything else that happens.. They lost their religion, ran from state to state, and ceased to have a cohesive bond any longer. I saw their separation in Las Vegas. Prayers for them to heal from this loss.

  3. What I really want to see is the demise of Kody and Robin I haven’t seen any comments made by either of these to evil people Put that into the next season

  4. I think Kody is the biggest ass. He is a narcissist is the fully meaning of the word. I am so glad three of the women got away from him. I feel robin wants to, but thinks she has too much to lose. it is so sad Garrison lost his life because his father couldn’t get over his ego and make amends with his child. Garrison was very troubled by the “lose” of his father’s support and relationship. All because Kody thinks he is god. well Kody I hope you still feel justified with your selfish, egotistical way. So sorry to the family and this horrible loss. R.I.P Garrison.

  5. I think the show would be a great lesson showing how three sister wife’s escaped a very painful lifestyle, but went on to show how their life’s evolved. please leave Cory and
    Robin out of the
    show!!
