Mindy McCready, 37, is dead in an apparent suicide.
In detail, McCready's body was discovered on the front porch of her home in Heber Springs, Arkansas on Sunday, with the local sheriff's office announcing that McCready passed away from a self-inflicted gunshot wound.
It has to be noted that McCready had many personal problems in recent years, with her family committing her to a mental health clinic earlier this month before she was released for an out-patient program.
McCready's death comes shortly after the January death of her boyfriend, David Wilson, and just a few weeks after she slammed speculation that she had anything to do with his passing.
McCready's two children (Zander, 6, and Zayne, 9 months) were removed from her care on February 6.
Accrording to reports, McCready, who had a number of run-ins with the law, attempted suicide twice before, most recently in 2008, and appeared on "Celebrity Rehab" in 2010.
McCready released five studio albums during her career, with her first "Ten Thousand Angels" released in 1996 and going double platinum in the United States.
