Zach Hickerson hopes an investigation into Hayden Panettiere's death produces definitive results.
Hayden Panettiere's friends and family "deserve the truth" about her death.
The actress passed away on August 16, aged 36, and Zach Hickerson, the brother of her on-again, off-again boyfriend Brian Hickerson, hopes the truth emerges soon.
Zach told TMZ: "There are a lot of assumptions, speculations and accusations currently swirling.
"The truth will come out as the authorities complete and release additional details from the investigation. And that is important because the people who loved and adored Hayden deserve the truth."
Zach described Hayden as "one of the most precious individuals on this earth".
He also argued that Hayden's friends and family should be allowed to mourn her passing without any "additional noise".
He said: "At this time, I want to clarify my involvement in effort to keep the focus on the fact that we lost one of the most precious individuals on this earth and to allow those that cared about her to mourn without additional noise, chaos, and misinformation being created and propagated by the media as well as the public."
