Sargent was found dead in her Capitol Hill apartment on June 28, 1992.[1][4] After consuming alcohol and using heroin at a party after having been sober for eight months,[5][6] she returned home and passed out on her back.[5] She died of asphyxiation after vomiting, having failed to wake up.[5][6] Sargent died while 7 Year Bitch was recording their first full album, Sick 'Em,[7] which was released in October 1992 and was dedicated to her.[8] 7 Year Bitch's second album, ¡Viva Zapata!
