Coroner’s Official Autopsy Results on Cause of Death of Whitney Houston … Cocaine “Exacerbated her Heart Condition” & Played a Role in her Accidental Bath Tub Drowning

It has to be the worst kept secret with regards to the death of singer Whitney Houston … according to LA County Coroner Craig Harvey, cocaine did play a role in her death and accidental drowning in the bath tub.

   There is no denying Houston was a great talent.

   In Oprah’s recent interview, it is obvious to me that her Sister in Law and Brother were also in denial about Houston’s chronic drug use.

   While it is not their fault she never gave up her bad habits, perhaps they could have done a better job with being honest with her and the public over her problem and poor health.

   I fear her daughter Bobbi Kristina will be headed down the same path.
