and the first police indications have pointed to a

drug

overdose

.

The newspaper

The New York Post

has published some of the data from the police reports detailing that "Auster, 44, was found

with an accumulation of drugs

and a dose normal to the one he used to take, which means his death may have been accidental."

on bail

on involuntary manslaughter charges in the death of his daughter Ruby.

A dramatic event that placed Daniel in the headlines of the international press on November 1 after the protagonist of the events himself

called the police
