Beverly Hills authorities have also released 1-minute-long 911 call made by a hotel staff in which a hotel security officer said the woman who called for help from Houston's room was "irate and pretty much out of it."

Investigators "found no evidence of foul play," a police statement said. "Based on the findings of our investigation and our review of the coroner's report, we have determined that this is not a criminal matter," said Lt. Mark Rosen, a spokesperson for the Beverly Hills Police Department while presented a detailed report of investigation. 

The report found that Houston was waterlogged in bathtub for almost an hour before a personal assistant found her dead and called for any help. The 41-page coroner’s report provided new details on the death of the 48-year-old singer.

On the initial stages of investigation, authorities suspected that some combination of narcotic substances, prescription medications and alcohol played a role in Houston’s death.
