TMZ reports that the Fulton County Medical Examiner has ruled that Bobbi Kristina Brown’s official cause of death was similar to her mother Whitney Houston. The autopsy was not able to rule if the death was due to foul play. Brown died due to “immersion of face in water complicating mixed drug intoxication.”
The drugs found in her system included marijuana, alcohol, a cocaine-related substance called benzoylecgonine, benzodiazepines (prescription anti-anxiety medication) and morphine. It’s unknown if the morphine was related to heroine. The full cause of death is pneumonia and encephalopathy. This means that her lungs were filled with water and her brain was injured due to how much time she was under water. She was found in her bathtub on January 31, 2015.
It’s a similar to Whitey Houston, whose official cause of death was drowning in a bathtub, complicated by cocaine use and heart disease. She was found at the Beverly Hilton at the time.
Bobbi Kristina’s autopsy results were sealed until this morning so it wouldn’t interfere with an ongoing criminal investigation against her boyfriend Nick Gordon. A judge unsealed the report after Atlanta station WXIA filed documents arguing about its First Amendment rights. However, the medical examiner wasn’t able to tell if the death was “due to intentional or accidental causes,” which could help Gordon. Brown’s estate filed a $40 million wrongful death lawsuit against him, claiming that he gave her the drugs that killed her. She was removed from life support and died on July 26 at a hospice in Georgia. She would have turned 23 today.
