Cory Monteith died of mixed drug and alcohol toxicity

Although it was reported that the autopsy results for actor Cory Monteith have been classified as “inconclusive,” the British Columbia Coroners Service announced this afternoon that the Glee star died of mixed drug and alcohol toxicity, with heroin being the main drug among the substances found in his body. In an interview with Global News yesterday, the actor’s cousin, Richard Monteith, asked the public not to let the autopsy and toxicology results influence their judgment. “His life was full of beautiful stories, triumphs, failures and successes that it does not matter what his problems were,” said Richard. He added: “It matters how many lives he changed and that he was genuine.” ~Alfonso Espina
