You may not remember her full name, but you probably remember the 90's R&B group, Brownstone. Charmayne Maxwell--one-third of the group, died Friday night in L.A. after her body was found bleeding from a cut to her neck. Initial reports are claiming that the star had suffered from a freak fall.
Reports coming in share that Charmayne had come home from her son's soccer game, and was home alone with him. Later in the evening, around 9 PM, her husband, music producer Carsten Soulshock, came home and found her unconscious and bleeding.

We're told it looked like Charmayne had fallen and cut her neck on glass, she was bleeding profusely, but still had a pulse. Carsten called 911, and paramedics transported her to Cedars Sinai Hospital, but she had lost too much blood. We're told she died on the way to the hospital.
LAPD went to the home and say that it was a broken wine glass that cut Charmayne's neck. Detectives do not suspect foul play.An adult has about 4 or 5 liters of blood. How long it takes for a person to bleed to death depends on the artery. With some arteries like the Dorsalis Pedis Artery it can take 6-8 minutes, but with the Aorta, Femoral or Carotid Artery, a person could drop dead immediately from the blood pressure drop, and bleed out in less than a minute.
