Turns out Anne Heche wasn't high at the time of her death, after all.
Anne Heche’s final autopsy found “no evidence of impairment by illicit substances” at the time of the car crash that led to her death earlier this year, according to a report by the Los Angeles County Medical Examiner-Coroner’s office.
” Fentanyl was also detected in her bloodstream, though the report determined that it had been “obtained after she received treatment at the hospital and therefore is consistent with therapeutic use.” The report, made public Tuesday, corroborated an earlier finding that Heche’s death was due to smoke inhalation and thermal injuries. It noted that the effects of the smoke had been exacerbated by a sternum fracture, which would have made breathing significantly more “painful.
