Millionaire ‘Lilo’ Star Died Homeless—Progressive Compassion Is the Problem

A 35-year-old woman was found wasting away to skin and bones on Los Angeles’ Skid Row, barely conscious on the floor of a fetid tent, nodding in and out amid the fentanyl haze. She died on June 17, 2026, in a hospital bed of meningitis and sepsis triggered by terminal malnutrition. Her body surrendered. 

The woman was Daveigh Chase, the voice of Disney’s beloved Lilo in “Lilo & Stitch,” and the nightmare Samara crawling from the well in “The Ring.” She had millions in unclaimed residuals from her child stardom sitting untouched in accounts because she was “too far gone” on heroin and fentanyl.

Her longtime manager, John Ryan, and stepsister, Gaia Brown, had hired a private investigator months earlier after videos of her on Skid Row surfaced. They raced to intervene, but by then it was too late. Talent, youth, money, love—everything the homelessness industry swears the desperate lack—none of it could save her.

Daveigh Chase’s tragedy is a real and brutal case study in the lethal failure of progressive compassion.

Would LA Mayor Karen Bass’s taxpayer-funded dentures have saved her? 

Bass insists meth addicts “can’t succeed without teeth” and pushes public dental programs so the toothless can flash a smile at their next job interview. Give them comprehensive dental care, she says, and watch them waltz into employment and self-respect.
