Judge orders release of Bobbi Kristina Brown's autopsy results
- 8 years ago
Autopsy results for Bobbi Kristina Brown, the daughter of singers Whitney Houston and Bobby Brown, could be released on Thursday after a judge in Georgia ordered the report to be unsealed.
Prosecutors opposed the report's release, arguing in a court document that it would "compromise the integrity" of an ongoing criminal investigation into the celebrity daughter's death.
Last August, the conservator of Bobbi Kristina Brown's estate filed a wrongful death lawsuit accusing her boyfriend, Nick Gordon, of causing the death.
Fulton County Superior Court Judge Henry Newkirk told Reuters he unsealed the autopsy report on Thursday at the request of Atlanta television station WXIA and it could be made public later in the day.
