Brittany Murphy's death caused aroused speculations of foul play or drug abuse but the autopsy shows a "normal" death took place.

Murphy, 32, was found dead in her bathroom early Sunday morning from cardiac arrest, unable to be revived by paramedics.

Despite husband and screenwriter Simon Monjack's to not have her body autopsied, the LA County Coroner Ed Winter said "other issues" he can't talk about were reason enough to investigate.

TMZ reports today the autopsy proved "normal".

"There were no signs of foul play," TMZ reports. "There was nothing that pointed to a cause of death. The cause of death has been "deferred" pending other tests."

Other sources say the L.A. County Coroner has not made conclusive findings and is still waiting on the the toxicology report and histopathology (organs and tissues) and neuropathology (brain) tests to come back.

Even still, sources involved in the investigation say Murphy's body appeared "normal" and TMZ's report notes the actress did not appear "emaciated" or "overly thin" as portrayed in photos taken earlier this month.
