Dead Singer Still Chillin'

Posted Apr 2nd 2008 10:00AM by TMZ Staff

The Cuyahoga County Coroner tells TMZ that no one has come to claim the body of Sean Levert.

According to the Coroner, the body remains a "guest" at the Coroner's office while Levert's wife tries to decide whether to hold a private or public service. The 39-year-old died late Sunday after being restrained in a Cleveland jail.

Since the death of his older brother Gerald -- and fellow Levert singer -- last year, Sean had been trying to get the band back together.

7. Whether his wife holds a private or public funeral, the body has to go to a funeral home for preparation. Why is it not at the funeral home? Is he going to be cremated? This speaks volumes....................


Mamie_Moanie, obviously, you didn't bother to read the story! HE IS ALREADY DEAD!

8. "Just chillin'" is callous, TMZ. The man died while in custody for a civil offense. He didn't commit violence or brutalize anyone that I know of. I thought our country didn't have debtors' prisons, but Levert was jailed for failure to pay child support. Same difference?

Rest in peace. I hope there's a full investigation and someone is held accountable for the "restraint" that may have led to this man's untimely death.

9. So you guys replace the Yamin comment with this one? So tactless. Get a life guys. No matter what you may think about someone or their family, the person is dead. Have respect for once.

10. once again u guys dont know what the hell ur talking about!! Dwight Thompson, a member of the "new" Levert that was recently formed, was on the radio this morning answering questions on behalf of the family. He said the funeral is gonna be on Sunday, 6th. So obviously the body has been claimed!!!! TMZ is ridiculous.

13. How sad for Eddie Levert to lose both sons in such a short time! He's in my prayers!

14. Hey #8! You obviously don't have to deal with a "father" who refuses to help with the finances of the children he helped bring into this world. Not sayin' the guy should have died, but don't open your mouth about "dead-beat dad's" if you don't have any frame of reference.
