Confirming what most suspected, the British Columbia Coroners Service revealed Tuesday that “Glee” star Cory Monteith’s death was caused by a mix of drugs that included heroin and alcohol.<\/p>\n
“Post-mortem testing, which included an autopsy and toxicological analysis, found that Mr. Monteith, aged 31, died of a mixed drug toxicity, involving heroin and alcohol,” reads the official statement.<\/p>\n
Added the statement, “It should be noted that at this point there is no evidence to suggest Mr. Monteith\u2019s death was anything other than a most-tragic accident.”<\/p>\n
Once investigators officially ruled out foulplay, it seemed inevitable that drugs and\/or alcohol played a role in the actor’s passing. Still, given the fact that he had just completed a rehab stint for an admitted drug problem, many held out hope that there was some other freak factor at play.<\/p>\n
The thirty-one-year-old actor, who played Finn Hudson on “Glee,” was found dead in his hotel room Saturday afternoon.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0},"categories":[3],"tags":[496,68],"adace-sponsor":[],"yoast_head":"\n
