Autopsy Results Delayed (Again!)
Just when we thought we were about to get some answers, the coroner’s office has decided to delay the release of Michael Jackson’s autopsy reports again. Now the big reveal has been pushed back to sometime next week. We hope the coroners realize that all the rumors and stories about MJ aren’t going away until the tox reports and autopsy conclusions come forward. Even then, we’re guessing some people will never stop speculating about the singer’s demise – even in death, the King of Pop is larger than life.
From Mercury News:
The Los Angeles County coroner’s office says release of Michael Jackson’s autopsy results will be delayed.
Coroner’s officials had said they were going to release the results this week but Assistant Chief Coroner Ed Winter said Wednesday the announcement will probably not come until next week.
Winter did not discuss reasons for the delay, saying only that his office needed to “finish up a bunch of stuff.”
Jackson died June 25.
A law enforcement official has said investigators are working under the theory that the powerful anesthetic propofol (PROH’-puh-fahl) caused Jackson’s heart to stop. The official spoke on condition of anonymity because the investigation is ongoing.
Color us confused- why isn’t the autopsy ready? All of these extras delays makes us suspect that there are details within the report that authorities are afraid to let the public know about. But in reality, the extra waiting just makes us all the more eager to find out what’s going on. Stay tuned!
