Cause of death revealed for ‘Human Barbie’ influencer Barbara Jankavski

A cause of death has been determined for Brazilian influencer Barbara Jankavski, widely known as the “Human Barbie,” who was found dead last month at the age of 31.

Jankavski, famous online for undergoing 27 plastic surgeries, was discovered unresponsive on Nov. 2 inside the São Paulo home of 51-year-old public defender Renato Campos Pinto de Vitto.

Authorities have concluded Jankavski died of a heart attack from an accidental overdose of cocaine, according to local outlet g1. However, Jankavski’s family believes that she may have been murdered and are pushing to have the case brought before a court.

According to a police report obtained by CNN Brasil, De Vitto told authorities he spent the night with Jankavski after hiring her for “sexual services” and that the two used illicit drugs together.

De Vitto claimed that when he realized she wasn’t moving, he called emergency services and tried to perform CPR until paramedics arrived on the scene.

Jankavski was wearing only her underwear when she was found dead, cops said. She also had an injury to her left eye and marks on her back, according to CNN.

While a friend attributed Jankaviski’s facial injury to an earlier slip and fall, police initially ruled her death as suspicious.

A judge will ultimately decide whether Jankavski’s death will be classified as a suspected homicide.

Jankavski gained widespread attention on social media for openly sharing her numerous cosmetic procedures, including a facelift in June. She had followings of over 55,000 on Instagram and 344,000 on TikTok,
