Brittany Murphy's Mom Says Death was from Natural Causes

Because Hollywood is apparently Africa, Brittany Murphy's mom is certain that she died of natural causes at the ripe old age of 32. I still don't buy it, but the Associated Press has the story:

A month after her sudden death, Brittany Murphy's mother and husband say they are convinced the actress died of natural causes, not drugs or an eating disorder.

In an interview with The Associated Press on Tuesday, Sharon Murphy and Simon Monjack said that Murphy did not use drugs or alcohol and that they are awaiting a determination from coroner's officials that will end speculation prescription medicine caused Murphy's death on Dec. 20 at age 32.

Monjack said some of the prescription medications found in the couple's Hollywood Hills home belonged to him.

I'm not saying she was a crack addict or anything, but when you find enough medication to take care of all of Wyoming for a year beside her bed, that's probably a clear sign that drugs had something to do with her death. It's kinda like finding a dead guy with a noose around his neck and blaming cancer. Sorta.
