Daveigh Chase's former manager questions alleged boyfriend's GoFundMe

John Ryan, Daveigh Chase’s former manager, urged fans not to donate to a GoFundMe set up by Roy Hernandez, saying he and Chase’s close circle do not know the man. Ryan told TMZ, “Neither her family nor her close friends know who this person is,” and added, “I can confirm Daveigh has a SAG trust account with more than enough funds to cover all medical and related expenses.” Hernandez has said he intends to use the fundraiser to give Chase a “proper memorial.” One campaign has raised $3,924 of a $5,000 goal, while Ryan alleged Chase left behind millions in residuals and claimed she was “too far gone” on heroin and fentanyl to claim them despite his attempts to help.

Chase died at 35 after meningitis and a related blood infection led to sepsis. Before her death she was hospitalized for malnutrition and was seen living in Downtown Los Angeles’ Skid Row.
