A 20 year old Ventura college woman, Baylee Ybarra Gatlin, died on May 28, 2017 while attending the Lightning in a Bottle Festival in Bradley, California after being transported to the hospital after a "medical emergency". Her medical autopsy was released this past Thursday, August 3, 2017, by the San Luis Obispo County Sheriff's Offices coroner, saying the cause of her death was "acute LSD overdose". The Monterey County Sheriff's Office is leading the investigation.
However, the LD50, the dose given to humans where half the humans would die, extrapolated from animal data is 12mg-5g, which is 120x-50,000x the average dose. https://erowid.org/ask/ask.php?ID=220

This is hard for me to believe being that the strongest known psychedelic (DMT) is released every night during REM sleep.

I'm very skeptical of this, the amount of LSD you need to overdose costs too much money for the recreational user to accidentally acquire.

I agree. This sounds sketchy.
I haven't found any article in which they report the symptons or any kind of details of what organ was affected by the allegedly LSD overdose.
Citing Erowid:
"Put simply, LSD does not cause death at recreational or therapeutic doses (less than 500 ug / 0.5 mg). An increase in news articles in 2012/2013 suggesting deaths related to LSD are almost all related to 25I-NBOMe and 25C-NBOMe, two new chemicals, available on blotter, but completely different from LSD."
