Examiner Ready but Waiting to Reveal What Killed Anna Nicole

Someone out there knows what caused the untimely death of Anna Nicole Smith at age 39. But that someone won't be informing the public of his findings for at least another week. 

The office of Broward County Medical Examiner Joshua Perper said Wednesday that the doctor has determined the cause of Smith's death but will not be releasing his report until Florida police have concluded their own investigation into the matter, which could take anywhere from one to several more weeks.  

Perper, who performed Smith's autopsy and was one of the key proponents of having the former Playboy Playmate embalmed sooner rather than later to prevent further decomposition, wants to make sure that his findings do not influence or conflict with the authorities' investigation, his office said.
