Ray J, reality star and purported ex-boyfriend of Whitney Houston, is denying allegations that he had anything to do with the tragic death of the R&B icon. After the coroner’s report revealed that Houston had cocaine in her system, some critics — such as Bobby Brown’s sister Leolah Brown — pointed fingers at Ray J. The Huffington Post reports:

Whitney Houston’s official cause of death was deemed an accidental drowning, but the report also notes the singer suffered from heart disease and had cocaine and prescription drugs present in her system.

It’s the cocaine that has the singer’s former sister-in-law, Leolah Brown, pointing fingers at Whitney’s reported boyfriend at her time of death, Ray J.

According to the L.A. Coroner’s report, Houston used cocaine “immediately prior to her collapse,” but when investigators arrived on the scene they found no trace of cocaine or any other illegal drugs in the room. Sources tell TMZ the individual who removed the cocaine from the scene was also the person who supplied it to the singer.

Brown claims that Ray J provided Houston with the cocaine before she died. On CNN’s “Headline News” with Dr. Drew Thursday night, Brown claimed that she saw Ray J leaving Houston’s hotel room in a hurry on the night of her death. Brown also went so far as to allege that Ray J was never Houston’s boyfriend, but he was really her “runner boy,” and brought her the drugs she wanted.
