The autopsy report for Casey Johnson is in. The socialite/Tila Tequila pawn died of diabetic ketoacidosis. Also, the autopsy report for Jay Reatard shows acute cocaine toxicity with alcohol. The moral of these stories is: take your insulin, don’t mix the Kate Moss dust with booze, and don’t touch Tila Tequila. These things would not have saved Brittany Murphy, though. TMZ reports:
Sources involved in Brittany Murphy’s autopsy tell TMZ her death was “preventable.”
Sources say the primary causes of Murphy’s death were pneumonia and severe anemia. L.A. County Coroner officials believe Brittany’s condition was “treatable” but no one took her to the hospital in time.
As for the multiple drugs found in her system, we’re told they were both prescription, including medicine for cramps, and over-the-counter medications, including cough syrup. Our sources say the drugs “pushed her over the line” but the underlying problems were the pneumonia and anemia.
People asked Brittney’s gorgeous widower Simon Monjack what he thought about the report, and he said:
“I expected [the cause of death] to be her heart.” She was “not that ill,” he said. “She wasn’t coughing up. I’ve had pneumonia and coughed up handfuls of spittle. So yeah, everything surprised us, everything.”
Well, there goes his whole “cartoon penguins broke her heart” lawsuit and defense. How will he get money out of Hollywood now? Maybe Coraline was the one who infected Brittany. And the Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs guys stole all her iron.
