Blasberg was found dead in her Henderson, Nev., home on May 9. She was 25 years old. According to the coroner's report, Blasberg took her own life by asphyxiation.
Blasberg was found with a plastic bag over her head, the report revealed, and toxicology screenings showed "toxic levels" of prescription drugs in her system, including drugs to treat cough, headaches and anxiety, plus painkillers.
An arrest warrant was also issued today for Dr. Thomas Hess, who is charged with obstruction of justice. Hess, according to the warrant, is alleged to have removed items from the scene of Blasberg's death before police arrived. No foul play is suspected, according to the Las Vegas Review-Journal.
The newspaper reported:
"The case was initially complicated when Hess, who reported the death, admitted to altering the scene and would not cooperate with investigators, authorities said."Hess admitted removing a suicide note, hiding it in his vehicle along with prescription medications taken from the house."
