Claudine Barretto Died of Drug Overdose; Victim of Death Hoax



Claudine Barretto is not dead, despite rumors to the contrary.
 The Filipino actress did not die of a drug overdose, her lawyer emphasized after rumors started spreading via social media websites on Tuesday.
 Ferdinand Topacio, the lawyer, told DZMM that he has enlisted the help of the Philippine National Police Criminal Investigation and Detection Group (PNP-CIDG) Cybercrime Unit to deal with the rumor.
 The rumor fooled multiple media outlets, including the usually-solid ABS-CBN.
Tapacio said that it is a “cruel joke” and admonished whoever is possible.
Her estranged husband Raymart Santiago accused Barretto of using illegal drugs last year, but the actress tested negative for drugs.

She’s also dealing with controversies involving her sisters.
