CELEBRITY AUTOPSIES WITH DISTURBING DISCOVERIES
AMY WINEHOUSE
With her throwback style and soulful, dazzling powerhouse vocals, British singer Amy Winehouse earned comparisons to traditional pop singers and jazz greats like Billie Holiday and Sarah Vaughn, according to AllMusic.
London's Metropolitan police told The Guardian that they were summoned by ambulance dispatchers to go to a home in north London on a Saturday afternoon in July 2011, where a woman was found deceased. When they arrived, officers pronounced 27-year-old Winehouse dead.
The results of the first investigation into the cause of Winehouse's death were voided, when authorities discovered that the coroner hired to examine the singer's remains didn't have the proper credentials, according to The Guardian. A second inquest into Winehouse's death ruled that Winehouse died of alcohol poisoning. After a period of abstaining, Winehouse drank heavily, with a level of "416 mg of alcohol per deciliter" of blood, enough to trigger a comatose state and disable her ability to breathe.
