Daniel had arrived in the Bahamas on Saturday night to visit with his mother and his new sister. At one point he was believed to have gone to sleep. Said Reginald Ferguson, assistant commissioner of the Royal Bahamian Police Force, "It would appear from our report that the mother had gotten up, saw him in the chair and he appeared to be sound asleep. She tried to wake him up, he was unresponsive, and she sounded the alarm."

One report, which was quoted on PerezHilton.com, claims that Daniel may have died from a drug overdose. An insider revealed, "All we know right now is that he was on anti-depressants. Some things indicate that he probably overdosed on those drugs." This goes against a statement made on Anna Nicole’s website that claimed that drugs were not suspected in Daniel’s death. An autopsy was scheduled to take place on Monday, though the results have not been released.
