Ortensia Alcantara who was with Kevin Samuels and also reported his death has finally spoken. According to the woman, rumors that she had a one-night stand with Kevin are false.
She also says she’s going for a lawyer to make sure that the lies that have been spread about her concerning Kevin Samuels’ death are taken down from the internet.
Kevin Samuels’ mom Beverly Samuels-Burch confirmed his death after rumors went viral that he had died via NBC News;
His mother, Beverly Samuels-Burch, declined to release details about what happened. She said she learned of her son’s death from social media.
“That was a terrible thing for social media to put that out. I didn’t even know. I hadn’t even been notified,” she said in a phone call on Friday. “All I’m doing is requesting that people pray for us.”
The Atlanta Police Department said officers were called to an apartment on East Paces Ferry Road NE on Thursday morning “regarding a person injured.” By the time police arrived, first responders were performing CPR on an unresponsive man later identified as Samuels.
A woman in the apartment told officers that Samuels had complained about chest pain and that she attempted to help him but he fell, the police report states. The woman called 911.
Samuels was taken to Piedmont Hospital, police said. The Fulton County Medical Examiner’s Office said in a press release that it performed an autopsy and a cause and manner of death are pending.
There is a couple of issues with Alcantara’s story. The Instagram account this is coming from hasn’t been verified as her. It has no posts besides a message saying leave her and her family alone, so we can’t be sure this is actually her speaking on Samuels’ death. A Facebook account that was confirmed to be her was deleted.
We don’t have too many facts in the case, beyond we know that Alcantara spent the weekend together and on the day of his death she says he complained of chest pains before collapsing on her. She attempted CPR to save his life according to her but failed and he was pronounced dead a short time later.
As always there are many conspiracy theories going around, but until we know more from the police, Alcantara is sending out this warning, if it is really her.
