But the official cause of death for Ms. Kilgallen is still inconclusive. The cause is listed as "likely" and likely implies some doubt. So the medical examiner hasn't really resolved anything.It's listed as "likely" on Wikipedia with no citation. If the medical examiner wrote the Wiki article, you might have something, but as it says in the November 15, 1965 Journal-American: "The death of Dorothy Kilgallen, Journal-American columnist and famed TV personality, was contributed to by a combination of moderate quantities of alcohol and barbiturates, a medical examiner's report stated today...In his report today, Dr. James Luke, Assistant Medical Examiner, said that although Miss Kilgallen had only 'moderate amounts of each,' the effect of the combination had caused depression of the central nervous system 'which in turn caused her heart to stop.'" No "likely" there. |
