The reality television world was shaken by the sudden death of Keke Jabbar, a beloved star from the hit series “Love & Marriage: Huntsville.” At just 42 years old, Jabbar’s life was cut short, leaving behind a grieving family and fans. Recent reports have confirmed that her official cause of death was carbon monoxide poisoning, a tragic incident that has raised awareness about the dangers of vehicle safety.
The circumstances surrounding Jabar’s death
Jabbar, whose real name was Ne’Keshia Dawson-Jabbar, was found deceased in July, nearly two months before the cause of death was revealed. According to reports, Jabbar had spent the night with her sisters and accidentally fell asleep in her car. A friend mentioned that Jabbar often fell asleep wherever she was when she was extremely tired. On that fateful night, she had slept in her vehicle, which was already showing signs of malfunction.
Coroner’s findings
Coroners have corroborated the account provided by Jabbar’s friend. Documents released indicated that Jabbar had a dangerously high level of carboxyhemoglobin in her blood — 64%. For context, normal levels for non-smokers are typically 2% or below, while smokers may have levels of 5% or below. This alarming statistic highlights the severity of carbon monoxide exposure.
Additional toxicology reports
In addition to the carbon monoxide findings, a toxicology report revealed that Jabbar had oxycodone and oxymorphone in her system at the time of her death. However, it remains unclear whether these substances played a significant role in the tragic outcome.
