Read_Carrie_Fisher_s_autopsy_-_Documents_-_Los_Angeles_Times_-_2017-06-19_13.08.55Carrie Fisher died with cocaine, ecstasy, and heroin in her system. She also died of sleep apnea. All of it caused a heart attack. The tragedy is that Carrie had everything going for her. She had the renewed success with Star Wars. It didn’t matter. She herself said she suffered from mental illness. It turns out were lucky to have her as long as we did. RIP at last, Carrie.
