Joan Rivers Cause Of Death Finally Released...lack Of Oxygen To The Brain by prechear(op): 7:40pm On Oct 16, 2014

Now we finally know what killed legendary
comedienne and Fashion Police host, Joan
Rivers. It was lack of oxygen to the brain
while under propofol
According to TMZ,
She died because she went into hypoxic
arrest during her throat procedure ...
cutting off oxygen to her brain -- but the
medical examiner is calling it a
"predictable complication."
The New York City Office of Chief
Medical Examiner released its findings
today, revealing that Joan was sedated
with Propofol during the procedure.
The investigation also revealed Joan had
the procedure to evaluate changes in
her voice and to deal with acid reflux.
Joan suffered brain damage due to lack
of oxygen. As for the "predictable
complication" ... it appears the Examiner
is saying her cause of death is simply a
risk associated with either anesthesia,
the procedure, or both.
