The autopsy on the former Playboy Playmate Anna Nicole Smith on Friday did not immediately establish the cause of death, a Florida medical examiner said.
Broward County medical examiner Dr Joshua Perper said “it could take three to five weeks to finish toxicological and other tests. He said he could not rule out drugs or natural causes but she was not shot, stabbed or beaten.”
The sudden death of the former exotic dancer and billionaire’s widow on Thursday in Hollywood, Florida, at age 39 left myriad questions about her turbulent last months and the future of her 5-month-old daughter.
Frantic efforts to revive Anna Nicole Smith were filmed and sold by a paparazzi agency.
Flash Picture & News Agency accepted a bid of over US $500,000 from an anonymous organisation after conducting an informal screening and auction.
Personally I think the selling of this tape is absolutely sickening, and to make money from someone’s death in this manner is horrendous
Anna Nicole Smith, the former Playboy centerfold who married a billionaire and waged a legal battle for his fortune all the way to the Supreme Court, died Thursday after collapsing at a hotel. She was 39.
Anna recently became tabloid news again after the sudden, apparently drug related death of her 20 year old son, she was found unresponsive while staying at the Seminole Hard Rock Hotel and Casino.
Edwina Johnson, chief investigator of the Broward County Medical Examiner’s Office, said the cause of death is under investigation and an autopsy will be done on Friday.
