Following the death of Daveihg Chase, who was known worldwide for the character Samara she portrayed in the 2002 film The Ring and the voice of Lilo in the Lilo & Stitch animation, details about her legacy emerged. It was claimed that the actor, who died at the age of 35, left personal assets worth approximately 400 thousand dollars, but did not prepare any will.
According to the report of the Los Angeles County Coroner's Office, Chase died on June 16, 2026, due to complications related to AIDS. The report stated that chronic polysubstance use was one of the factors contributing to his death. It was also reflected in official documents that he had been homeless in recent years and had been staying in the Skid Row area of Los Angeles.
According to the documents submitted to the court, while there was no real estate registered in the player's name, assets worth approximately 400 thousand dollars were detected. Since he did not leave a will, his mother, Cathy Chase, applied to the Los Angeles Superior Court to take over the management of the inheritance. The court is expected to consider the application on August 12.
Speaking after her daughter's death, Cathy Chase stated that she had been trying to save her for years and that her addiction process started with the painkillers she was given after her motorcycle accident in 2016. Responding to the criticism about her, mother Chase said, "I never kicked my daughter out. As a mother, I never gave up on her and always hoped she would come back home one day." He used his expressions.
