What else did Liam Payne’s autopsy say?
According to the release, coroners reported 25 injuries in Payne’s autopsy that were “compatible with those caused by a fall from height.”
“They also pointed out that the head injuries were sufficient to cause death,” the release continued, “while the internal and external hemorrhages in the skull, thorax, abdomen and limbs contributed to the mechanism of death.”
In addition, the release said forensic experts found “no defensive injuries” after examining the One Direction alum and that “no injuries were observed that would suggest the intervention of third parties.”
Still, questions remain—including about the state Payne may have been in at the time of his fall.
“The prosecution said that, given the position in which the body was left and the injuries from the fall,” the release added, “it is presumed that Payne did not adopt a reflex posture to protect himself and that he could have fallen into a state of semi- or total unconsciousness.”
As medical examiners seek more answers, the release noted, they’ve requested histopathological, biochemical and toxicological studies.
“At this point,” the release read, “the analysis of the stomach contents, alcohol and toxins in the blood, vitreous humor, bile, nasal swab and urine for the determination of alcohol and toxins was required.”
While a full toxicology report has yet to be released, a preliminary report revealed Payne had drugs in his system at his time of death, an official with direct knowledge told The New York Times.

The Federal Road Safety Corps (FRSC) has explained how Faisal, son of former Governor of Kaduna State, Senator Ahmed Makarfi died in a fatal accident.
Faisal died in a tragic auto crash along the Kaduna-Kano highway on Saturday.
Kabir Nadabo, the Kaduna State Sector Commander of the FRSC, confirmed the incident to the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) on Sunday.
Nadabo also reported that two other individuals involved in the accident remain unconscious.
The crash occurred at Lambar Zango on the Zaria-Kaduna highway around 6:15 p.m. Nadabo explained that the accident was caused when the front right tyre of a KIA vehicle traveling from Zaria to Kaduna detached from the vehicle, causing it to somersault.
He said three male were involved in the crash and that a rescue team from RS1.17 Birnin Yero responded to the scene but found that arrangements had already been made to transport one of the victims to a hospital in Kaduna.
Nadabo added that it was later revealed that Faisal Makarfi, son of the former governor, was one of the victims, saying that he was confirmed dead upon arrival at the hospital, while the other two victims, including the driver, remain unconscious.
Faisal has since been buried after prayers were offered for his at the Sultan Bello Mosque, Unguwar Sarki, Kaduna.

Jigawa State was rocked by tragedy on Tuesday as a fatal motor accident claimed the lives of 14 passengers and left four others injured near Kanya Market.
The accident occurred when a Toyota Hiace bus, overloaded and speeding, attempted to bypass an immigration checkpoint by veering into the opposite lane, colliding head-on with a DAF truck. The Jigawa State Police Command confirmed the incident through its spokesperson, DSP Lawan Shiisu Adam.
“Today, Tuesday, 16th of July 2024, at about 1120hrs, information at the Command’s disposal revealed that there was a fatal motor vehicle accident involving a DAF truck with reg. no. GMB 242 KD, coming from Kanya market,” said Adam.
He continued, “On reaching an Immigration checking point, another vehicle, a Toyota Hiace with reg. no. XA 381 GAS, was also coming from the Kano to Kanya market with overloading and at a high speed. When the immigration officers stopped it, the driver refused to stop and attempted to get around the checkpoint by veering into the other lane. As a result, he collided head-on with the aforementioned DAF truck.”
The impact of the collision was devastating, with 14 passengers losing their lives instantly and four others sustaining severe injuries.
Upon receiving the report, the Divisional Police Officer (DPO) of Kanya Division and his patrol team rushed to the scene. “On their arrival, corpses and injured were evacuated and rushed to Kanya Babba Hospital.
