Chester Bennington’s Autopsy, Toxicology Report Released
LAS VEGAS, NV - MAY 19: Chester Bennington of Linkin Park performs during CBS RADIO's two-night "SPF" concert at The Chelsea inside The Cosmopolitan of Las Vegas on May 19, 2017 in Las Vegas, Nevada. The band's performance coincided with their highly anticipated seventh studio album release, "One More Light."
One of the final reports regarding Chester Bennington’s death was released today by Los Angeles County.
Obtained by TMZ, Bennington’s autopsy and toxicology reports show that the Linkin Park singer had a trace amount of alcohol in his system at his time of death.
As for other substances, one out of three tests performed found ecstasy in Bennington’s system, but since the drug only appeared on just one test, coroners determined that he was not under the influence of drugs when he hanged himself on July 20 in his home in Palos Verdes Estates, Calif.
