Miami Marlins pitcher Jose Fernandez had cocaine in his system and was legally drunk when he was killed in a boating accident last month, according to autopsy and toxicology reports obtained Saturday by multiple media outlets.
A toxicology report from the Miami-Dade County Medical Examiner's Department, which was published Saturday by the Miami Herald, showed that cocaine and multiple other substances were detected in Fernandez's blood.
Fernandez, 24, had a blood alcohol content of .147, nearly twice the legal limit, when he was killed Sept. 25.
