Los Angeles County Coroner report on Carrie Fisher's death

A Los Angeles Coroner's report says cocaine, methadone, heroin and ecstasy were in Star Wars actress Carrie Fisher's system when she died in December 2016. The coroner's report listed sleep apnea as the primary cause of death with drug intake as a contributing factor. The report stated Fisher's family objected to a full autposy and coroner's investigators had access to limited toxicology specimens. Fisher died on December 27 four days after going into cardiac arrest on a flight arriving at LAX from London. The report states Fisher's assistant was on the plane with her and the assistant reported she was awake and normal at the start of the flight but had "multiple apneic episodes, which was her baseline" during the journey. The report states Fisher may have taken the cocaine as early as three days before the flight. Fisher's mother Debbie Reynolds died the day after her daughter. 19 Jun 2017 Pictured: Los Angeles County Coroner report on Carrie Fisher's death.
