A former Angels employee reportedly told federal investigators he provided oxycodone to Tyler Skaggs and abused it with him for years.
The attorney for an Angels employee who reportedly provided opioids to Tyler Skaggs, described the pitcher as “an addict who overdosed.”
Angels spokeswoman Marie Garvey said Mead and the second team employee — unnamed in the ESPN story — adamantly denied knowing that Skaggs might have abused opioids.Asked how the Angels knew the identity of the second team employee, Garvey said the team obtained it from the ESPN reporter. She declined to disclose the employee’s identity.
Skaggs, 27, had the opioids fentanyl and oxycodone in his system along with alcohol when he was found dead in his Southlake, Texas, hotel room July 1 during an Angels road trip. The Skaggs family hired Houston criminal defense attorney Rusty Hardin to represent them. The Angels hired Fort Worth trial attorney John Cayce to represent them.
A review of Venmo transactions showed payments between Skaggs and Kay, although for what is not clear. The latest payment reviewed by The Times was from April.
