My Reapers Died, but Why? I need help.

So I lost both of my Carolina Reapers due to some disease or something. I need help figuring out why this happened. 
 
First they were doing great, then something started happening to the leaves:

The leaves began to fall off the plants rapidly till none were left. Some other forums said it was a ph problem. Checked the soil and it was at 6 ph. Then someone said it was iron deficiency, so I bought an iron additive but it did not resolve the problem. 
 
Anyone know what this is?
 
ouch.... can you uproot a dead plant and post a picture of the roots?... and show us what the plant itself looks like plox :)  Im guessing its a pathogen of some sort....

Yes, I will dig one up after work today and take a pic of the roots. What does "..plant itself looks like plox." mean? Sorry if that's a noob question.
