The sudden death of Prince has been engulfed with malicious rumors that the real cause was due to cocaine and prescription drugs overdose. The dedicated investigators who are still on the course of fact finding will be joined by the United States Attorney and the Drug Enforcement Administration.

According to USA Today, the federal law enforcement agencies released a statement that they could help investigate with the local authorities in order to easily solve the mystery behind Prince' death. This has been confirmed by Chief Deputy and the lead investigator for Carver County Jason Kamerud.

"They have agreed to provide resources and expertise in our investigation," the Chief Deputy said.

Media organizations seeked help in DEA after the breaking news that prescribed painkillers where allegedly found in Prince' home right after his passing. Despite the rumor of a "cocaine overdose", they are currently finding out if the medication had instead taken a toll on his life.

The angle of death by substance overdose was brought up when authorities pulled out a police call, which was a year old, as per Belfast Telegraph. The unidentified woman, who made the call, allegedly said that Prince had "advised her last year in Germany that he cannot control his habit and she was advised to report it."

On the other hand, there was also a speculation that the legendary artist died because of AIDS. A source reportedly revealed on Radar Online that Prince has been taking medication which is the treatment for HIV.

"The last night, though, we sensed he was in trouble. One girl said he had foreign medication and thought it was Zika virus or something, but my friend who knows the meds says he's sure it was HIV meds."

Prince was pronounced dead on April 21 at 10:07 am. His greatest hits include "Purple Rain" and "Cream."
