(ATLANTA)— Lawyers for Bobbi Kristina Brown’s partner on Tuesday called on a prosecutor to tell the public she wasn’t murdered.

Joe Habachy and Jose Baez, attorneys for Nick Gordon, released a statement calling on Fulton County District Attorney Paul Howard to acknowledge there was no evidence of wrongdoing in Brown’s death.

“Frankly, the right thing for the District Attorney’s office to do right now is to tell the public the truth … that this was an accident … or even a suicide, but not a murder,” the statement says. “And the right thing for everyone to do is let Nick live his life now and let Bobbi Kristina rest in peace.”

Howard spokeswoman Claire LaBriola said in an email that the district attorney had no comment. Howard said last week his office’s investigation into Brown’s death would continue.

Brown, daughter of singers Whitney Houston and Bobby Brown, was found face-down and unresponsive in a bathtub in her suburban Atlanta townhome Jan. 31, 2015. She died in hospice care July 26.

Howard had asked a judge to seal the report from Bobbi Kristina’s autopsy while his office investigates. The judge did so in September, but last week ordered it unsealed after two television stations challenged it.
