A Connecticut man, Anthony Federline, 39, has been charged with first-degree sexual assault and risk of injury to a minor following the death of his 12-year-old stepdaughter, Eve Rogers. Authorities reported that she was found dead on March 18 with a lethal dose of diphenhydramine, the active ingredient in Benadryl, in her system. Investigators are examining Federline's social media accounts and other digital records as part of the ongoing investigation into her death. Toxicology reports indicated a diphenhydramine level of 23,000 ng/ml in Rogers' blood, significantly above the lethal threshold for children. Additionally, fluoxetine, an antidepressant not prescribed to her, was also detected. Federline has pleaded not guilty to the charges and is scheduled to appear in court later this month.
