Another Angels employee connected Eric Kay with drug dealer in Tyler Skaggs case, prosecutors argue
LA TimesTyler Skaggs pitches for the Angels against the Oakland Athletics on June 29, 2019. Prosecutors on Friday argued that another Angels employee connected Eric Kay with the person who supplied the drugs that led to Tyler Skaggs’ death in July 2019. She said Skaggs quit the drug “cold turkey.” Sedwick testified the records show that Kay and Smith, after the initial communication June 19, were in touch the next day but not again until June 26. Shortly after Skaggs’ body was found, Sedwick testified, records show that Smith called a T-Mobile customer service number at 5:10 p.m. A text was sent from the phone number two minutes later. Less than two hours later, Sedwick said, another phone number registered to Smith sent a text message to Kay at 7:05 p.m. and a text to Vazquez 30 seconds later.
