Márta Bárány grieves as she looks at her deceased daughter Jazmin during her funeral service while her other children Bende, 5, and Málna, 7 (right) stand with her at the Diablo Valley Funeral Home in Concord, Calif., on Saturday, May 18, 2024. Jazmin, who suffered from mental health issues due to childhood sexual trauma, overdosed on fentanyl. The medical examiner said, ‘Jázmin is dead,’ and the whole world went black," Marta said as she described her overwhelming shock and disbelief upon learning of her daughter's death. "I just couldn’t believe it. I heard their words, but I did not believe it." Jazmin's death marked the end of a two-year descent into severe mental illness and drug use triggered by childhood sexual trauma. As her mental state deteriorated, she began experimenting with illicit substances, including fentanyl.
