RIP BRETT FARRELL RUBALOFF (November 26, 1984 – September 10, 2024)

Formal pronouncement of death was made on Tuesday at 7:33 p.m.

Ruling by the deputy medical examiner was published on December 12, presumably after the results of tox screening had come back from the lab.

It appears the individual experienced extreme heat exposure leading to heat stroke.

The decedent had been arrested the evening of September 8 on a misdemeanor charge and released at 1:47 a.m. on September 9 on his own recognizance. He was to be due back in court on October 2.
