Cardi B is not one to shy away from helping people in need. In December, 23-year-old Lauren Smith-Fields died while meeting up with a man she met on a dating app. On Monday (January 24), a medical examiner announced that Fields died from an accidental drug overdose, and her family is crediting Cardi B with shining a light on the case.
According to reports, Cardi’s tweet on Sunday calling for justice in Fields’ death helped turn it into a criminal case, and the family is thanking her. Police didn’t open an investigation until Cardi criticized the state of Connecticut in the handling of the situation.
