Mark Ruffalo’s brother reportedly shot himself during a dangerous game of Russian Roulette, while under the influence of drugs.
“We expect the coroners report to show the shooting was a result of the victim’s chronic playing of Russian Roulette and his dangerous playing with firearms while under the use of controlled substances,” lawyer Ronald Richards said to the Daily News.

“My client was a good friend of the victim and is very sad for the loss of his family. However, she played no role whatsoever in his accidental death,” Richards said.
Shaha Adham, 26, surrendered Monday when Beverly Hills issued an arrest warrant for attempted murder.
Scott Ruffalo, a married hairdresser, died late Monday when he was taken off life support, a week after he was found with a gunshot wound to the head in his Beverly Hills condo.
“I can confirm that my client was present when Mr. Ruffalo shot himself,” Richards said Tuesday. “She was picking up some keys.”
The gun reportedly belonged to Scott Ruffalo, and he had been known to do cocaine and play with guns in the past in front of many witnesses.

Adham is the daughter of wealthy Saudi businessman Mishaal K. Adham.
Beverly Hills Police Lt. Tony Lee was unable to comment on Adham’s story due to the ongoing criminal investigation.
Surveillance video at Scott Ruffalo’s condo showed Adham and Brian Scofield, 28, at Ruffalo’s place that evening.
