Tabloid reports that Michael Jackson's autopsy information was leaked — and that he was bald and emaciated — are completely false, the Los Angeles County coroner's office said Monday. Assistant chief coroner Ed Winter said details reported in the Sun did not come from either county autopsy or the private autopsy ordered by the family, according to a Reuters report.
The Sun story calimed a leaked autopsy report revealed that Michael was a "virtual skeleton," wearing a wig to cover his "peach-fuzz" bald scalp. It also said his hips, thighs and shoulders were riddled with needle wounds, and that his stomach was empty apart from partially dissolved pills.
The coroner called the report inaccurate:
"I don't know where that information came from, or who that information came from. It is not accurate. Some of it is totally false."
Sadly, we can expect much more of this from the tabloid vultures before all is said and done.
RIP Michael.
