Houston death not criminal, police say
Beverly Hills police said on Wednesday they had closed their investigation into the death of singer Whitney Houston in a hotel room bathtub two months ago after concluding no crime was committed, Reuters reported.
"Based on the findings of our investigation and our review of the coroner's report, we have determined that this is not a criminal matter," the Beverly Hills police department said in a statement. "The BHPD investigation has been officially closed."
Houston, 48, who had a long history of drug abuse, was found dead on February11, and an earlier Los Angeles County Coroner's report said she died of accidental drowning due to the effects of cocaine use and heart disease.
