洛杉矶模特妮可·科茨的尸体在她的豪华公寓内被发现，被判定为意外事故
The drug-related death of a Los Angeles model has been ruled accidental after her body was found inside her luxury apartment last month.
上个月，一名洛杉矶模特的尸体在她的豪华公寓内被发现，她的死被判定为意外事故。
Nichole Coats, 32, died on Sept. 10 as a result of "cocaine and ethanol toxicity," according to the County of Los Angeles Medical Examiner.
据洛杉矶验尸官称，32岁的尼科尔·科茨于9月10日死于“可卡因和乙醇中毒”。
Her body was found by family members when they came to check on her after she failed to return their calls and texts. At the time, the Los Angeles Police Department told PEOPLE her death was not being treated as a homicide.
由于她没有回他们的电话和短信，家人来查看她的情况时发现了她的尸体。当时，洛杉矶警察局告诉《人物》杂志，她的死并没有被视为他杀。
However, Coats' family was not convinced, especially as another model, 31-year-old Maleesa Mooney, was found dead in her downtown L.A. apartment just two days after Coats on Sept. 12.
然而，科茨的家人并不相信，尤其是另一位模特，31岁的马莉萨·穆尼，在科茨死后两天，也就是9月12日，被发现死在她位于洛杉矶市中心的公寓里。
Coats' mother, Sharon Coats, told PEOPLE at the time that she suspected "foul play" in her daughter's death.
科茨的母亲莎伦·科茨当时告诉《人物》杂志，她怀疑女儿的死是“谋杀”。
“The police aren’t doing anything," she said. "They want to make it seem like there was no foul play. I just don’t buy it. I just want to rule it out.”
“警察什么也没做，”她说。“他们想让这件事看起来不像是谋杀。我就是不相信。我只是想排除这种可能性。”
Nichole's aunt May Stevens — who was one of the family members who discovered her body — agreed. “I believe it was murder, I really do," she told KTLA. "I feel that there’s a predator loose.”
尼科尔的姨妈梅·史蒂文斯是发现她尸体的家庭成员之一，她同意这一说法。“我相信这是谋杀，真的，”她告诉KTLA电视台。“我觉得有一只捕食者逃跑了。”
However, the LAPD later stated in a press release that “there is no evidence to suggest” that the deaths of Coats and Mooney are linked.
然而，洛杉矶警方随后在一份新闻稿中表示，“没有证据表明”科茨和穆尼的死有关联。
Still, Sharon said she had unanswered questions and described not knowing what happened to her daughter as "a nightmare."
尽管如此，莎伦说她还有一些问题没有得到解答，她说不知道女儿身上发生了什么，就像“一场噩梦”。
"I am trying to stay strong. I am hurt. I am heartbroken and I am severely devastated. This was totally unexpected," she told PEOPLE.
“我正努力保持坚强。我受伤了。我心碎了，我受到了严重的打击。这完全出乎意料，”她告诉《人物》杂志。
“I want to find out what happened to my daughter,” Sharon continued. “It was too soon. She was too young. She was doing well and then this happens. She was healthy. I am still trying to grasp all this. When she came in the room she brightened up the whole room. Her smile was like a diamond. She was like a gem.”
“我想知道我女儿到底出了什么事，”莎伦继续说道。“这太快了。她太年轻了。她本来很好，然后就发生了这种事。她很健康。我还在努力理解这一切。当她走进房间时，整个房间都活跃起来了。她的笑容像一颗钻石。她就像一块宝石。”
Sharon also shared that Nichole — who also worked as a beauty products sales rep — had been looking forward to an upcoming vacation to Cancun, Mexico, with some friends.
莎伦还说，妮可是一名美容产品销售代表，一直期待着和朋友们一起去墨西哥坎昆度假。
“I had to cancel her flights,” she explained. “She bought bikinis. They still have the tags on them.”
“我不得不取消她的航班，”她解释说。“她买了比基尼。它们的标签还在。”
