The gory details of Whitney Houston's death have been released.
As the L.A. County Department of Coroner previously announced, the singer was found by her personal assistant submerged under water in the bathtub of her room at the Beverly Hilton hotel.
But the final coroner's report, obtained yesterday, provides a more extensive picture of Houston's condition when she accidentally drowned on Feb. 11 with traces of cocaine in her system.
The report states that Houston was discovered face-down in "extremely hot water," and there was a scald burn on her back. The report, investigators found in the bathroom, a small spoon with a "white crystal like substance," as well as a "white powdery substance" on the counter and a portable mirror with traces of the same powder on it.
There was an open bottle of champagne in the bedroom, as well as a dozen prescription bottles, including three empty bottles of alprazolam (Xanax), the antiinflammatory Prednisone and antibiotics.
Kristy McCracken of the Beverly Hills Police Department wrote in her final report that, upon completing her investigation, she had determined that Houston "possibly overdosed on a narcotic substance, prescription medications, over the counter medications and alcohol."
