Juice WRLD's Photographer Disputes the Details Of His Death

The word has always been that Juice WRLD ODed after swallowing pills to hide them from the police who had just entered his plane.

Juice WRLD's photographer Chris Long, who was on the plane with him, says that narrative is false.

"I can’t do this anymore. I give up," he typed on Twitter. "Thanks for all the messages. I’m trying so hard. But if I can’t do it let’s make sure some things are clear. J did not swallow a bunch of pills because the police where [sic] at the airport. We gave no f*cks about them being there. He could have flushed them down the toilet if he cared. J was just hooked bad. The amount he took daily was absurd and he hid how much he really took from mostly everyone. Everyone around him tried really hard to get him to slow down. When he agreed to rehab it was because he wanted to lower his tolerance. He didn’t want to stop. J was supposed to go to rehab that month. We tried so hard to do positive things everyday like ride dirt bikes or paintball to keep busy and not do pills but every night once he hit the studio that was it. He loved it. I never thought he would od I was always scared of getting bad pressed pills so got test strips. I tested every batch he got, but no one knew how much he really took because he was hiding it. Once max and I really started counting how much he had and how fast he went though them."

Long went on to say he took a gun charge for the team during the raid because he had a clean record and that he watched Juice die at his feet.

Here are all of his Tweets:

I miss him so much. Everyday. I miss having someone to talk to that understood me and cared. I miss goofing off. I miss filming him freestying for me because he knew I loved it. I miss making him Red Baron pizza at 3:30am and he liked it burned af. Shit I miss rolling his blunts

I never did pills like that maybe occasionally take a half they always scared me. I’d sip sometimes for sure. Now I want to take percs and sip and get fucked up as possible to feel like those times when actually I did do it with him.

I had to watch little bro die at my feet. I had to look in his eyes while he was dying and I could do anything about it.

He had nothing to worry about. He knew the cops where there before we landed. We put that strap in my bag it was all good I had a clean record and I’m a register owner. I had no problem taking that charge.

That man treated me better than any other human on earth. Just on a personal level. He cared about me just like all his friends. It was so genuine and pure.
