According to her death certificate, the 24-year-old child star was pregnant when she was found dead on April 14. Vermont police have launched a probe, with “foul play” now a focus after her mother suggested drug use, RadarOnline.com can reveal.
The outlet also reported the Mammoth actress was discovered “lifeless on a riverbank” near a high school in Bennington around 4 a.m. on April 14.
An autopsy has been completed on Sophie’s body, but the cause of death remains undetermined.
Sophie, who was discovered alongside a man when authorities arrived, was “declared dead at the scene.”
While the man was said to have “cooperated with cops,” he is reportedly not being treated as a “suspect or person of interest.”
Her family released an online obituary, where they shared the news and opened up about her personal struggles.
“She wrote and drew voraciously, and much of this art depicts the depth she had, and it also represents the pain she suffered. Many of her writings and artwork are roadmaps of her struggles and traumas.”
They continued: “Even with those roadmaps, diagnoses and her own revelations, those closest to her, plus therapists, law enforcement officers and others who tried to help her, are heartbroken their efforts couldn’t save her from her fate.
“She repeatedly said she would ‘handle it’ on her own and was compelled to reject the treatment that might possibly have saved her life.”
She said: “We are very distraught and mourning. All I can say is her time acting was brief but very happy. She wasn’t a child star in the least and wasn’t subjected to anything hurtful on those films.
She added: “My knowledge is she was using drugs and was a tiny young woman. She was with other people when she died.
“I didn’t know them. There is an investigation ongoing. The autopsy results are not in. They said it would take 6-8 weeks. So I can’t say definitively.”
She made her final on-screen appearance in a 2015 episode of the latter.
