Brittany Murphy

Earlier this week, the cause of Brittany Murphy’s death was pinned down by the coroner’s office. The LA County Coroner has determined that Brittany Murphy died on Dec. 20 at the age of 32 due to pneumonia and an iron deficiency anemia that was worsened by being intoxicated by several different drugs. A toxicology report that could reveal what those drugs were will not be completed and released for several weeks. Officially, her death has been ruled an accident.

It’s being said that the pneumonia and anemia would not have killed her if she had received the proper medical treatment. Not to mention the condition was potentially made fatal because of the drug involvement.

It’s still a sad scenario to see someone so young die, but it always involves drugs. So people in Hollywood- STOP IT.
