Amy Winehouse Autopsy Results: 'A Violent Or Unnatural Death'


An autopsy was done on Amy Winehouse's body in London Monday morning and it revealed that the singer may have "died a violent or unnatural death."

The coroner has labeled the case a Section 20 postmortem, which means "there is reasonable cause to suspect that a person has died a violent or unnatural death or in any other way which would require an inquest."

At the location of Winehouse's death, police conducted it as a "non-suspicious," but the coroner's findings indicate that a more lengthy investigation will now begin. Toxicology was done but results are not yet available, which usually takes a few weeks.

The singer's body was identified by her parents early Monday morning and will be released to her family soon so that they can prepare a memorial service. Winehouse's family released a statement saying they have "been left bereft" by her death.

A shrine made from fans can be seen at her London home -- candles, photographs, flowers are all over the street.
