Autopsy on Whitney Houston to begin Sunday

Beverly Hills police confirmed to KCBS that Bobbi Kristina was transported at 10:30 a.m. PT to Cedars-Sinai Medical Center.

A Beverly Hills Police Dept. watch commander told CBS that Bobbi Kristina was treated for anxiety at the scene.

CBS2's Joy Benedict was on scene when Brown was taken.

According to Benedict, the teen was with three young men who were clearly distraught. They rushed to their car to follow the ambulance, Benedict said.

Benedict was told by police that Brown is expected to be OK.

Houston was pronounced dead Saturday afternoon in her room on the fourth floor of the Beverly Hilton. She had been planning to attend a party that night at the Hilton.

"There were no obvious signs of any criminal intent," said Beverly Hills police Lt. Mark Rosen.

An autopsy was set to begin Sunday.

That poor child is just 18! So much loss and trauma for such a young person. I've read that she and Whitney were very close. I wish Whitney had exercised more self-control for her daughter's sake.

She did it to herself. She knew what the trash was all about.

Substance abuse is a part of self-medicating toxic feelings. She's no different than any of us. Harvard just brought the science of "toxic stress" to light last week. ACE, toxic stress lead to a shortened life by 20 years. She would want us to understand this. RIP, dear Whitney. You taught so much.
Google: ACE, toxic stress, Harvard.
Hopefully Demi can be a spokesperson.

The music made you want to dance with somebody and the sad news made you so emotional, knowing that she almost had it all. But like every woman, she gave good love, which is the greatest love of all. Step by step, she was saving all her love for you, and in the end, we believed in her and tonight she will be our baby. And we will always love her.

Wonder where Whitney got the drugs all these years? To bad she was sooo special, protected from her illegal substance abuse by all her crackhead friends in Hollywood. Seems like there is a recurring theme here, wonder who will be next? Lesson in life here, one article is about Gabor being 95 years young celebrating her birthday. Then five articles about a crackhead being dead at 48.
