Whitney Houston Final Autopsy Report: Drug Spoon, Cocaine Found in Hotel Room

As reported on The BoomBox: Last month, an autopsy report revealed that Whitney Houston died Feb. 11 due to "drowning and effects of atherosclerotic heart disease and cocaine use," according to the Los Angeles County coroner's office. Now a final autopsy report shows that a "spoon with a white crystal-like substance on it" and a "white powdery substance" were also found in the Beverly Hilton hotel room where the singer passed away.

TMZ reports that a rolled up piece of paper was found near the spoon, used to hold the drugs later identified as cocaine. The complete autopsy report details that a portable mirror on a base was also discovered in a top drawer inside the hotel room, beside remnants of a white powdery substance.

In addition, the autopsy report states, "[Whitney] possibly overdosed on a narcotic substance, prescription medications, over the counter medications and alcohol." Her body was discovered face down in the hotel room bath tub with a "bloody purge coming from her nose."

The "I Wanna Dance With Somebody" songstress was 48 at the time of her death. She is survived by her 19-year-old daughter Bobbi Kristina. Houston left an estate valued at close to $20 million to her only child.
