The 39-year-old Levert died March 31 at a hospital after he was taken from the Cuyahoga County jail. He was serving a one year and 10 months sentence for failure to pay $89,025 in child support.
County Coroner Frank Miller says that Levert died from complications of sarcoidosis, an inflammatory disease. Miller ruled out foul play or trauma.
Levert and his brother Gerald formed LeVert in the 1980s with childhood friend Marc Gordon. Their hits included "Baby I'm Ready," "(Pop, Pop, Pop, Pop) Goes My Mind" and "Casanova."
Gerald Levert died in 2006 at age 40 of an accidental mix of prescription and over-the-counter drugs.

- Supermodel Naomi Campbell was "bitterly disappointed" that she had been charged with three counts of assault and other despicable behavior? I am bitterly disappointed and sick to death of rich bi*ch (i.e., female) celebrities acting out in public and endangering the rest of us! I can''t afford a lawyer so that I can take my rage out on law-abiding citizens. Lock the *** up!
