"In the event of my Demise
when my heart can beat no more
I Hope I Die For A Principle
or A Belief that I had Lived 4
I will die Before My Time
Because I feel the shadow's Depth
so much I wanted 2 accomplish
before I reached my Death
I have come 2 grips with the possibility
and wiped the last tear from My eyes
I Loved All who were Positive
In the event of my Demise"

By Tupac Shakur

Autopsy Report :

Tupac died at 4:03 pm at the Intensive Care Unit of the UMC's Trauma Center. He was pronounced dead by Dr. Lovett of respiratory failure and cardiopulmonary arrest.Afeni made a possitive identification of Tupac's body at 5 pm.A mortuary van took his body to the Clark County Coroner's office at 5:10 pm.They did an autopsy. It determined that Tupac didn't have any illegal drugs in his body,but was heavily sedated.The autopsy report is on file at the office. Below ya can see the official report,some details are made unreadable,'cause they would invade to much of Afeni's privacy. I cannot say it is the real one. A fan told me: I have read in many sources that he weighed 165 lbs.and stood 5"6, but on his "Coroners Report". it said he weighed 215 lbs. and stood 72.00 inches, Thats exactly 6 feet. There is no way in the world he is 6 feet tall. So if ya think about that,this report cannot be real. It could also be a mistake on purpose, but....
Cathy Scott was asked about this "problem" and her answer was:Per your question,I could only go with what the Coroners office released. It wasn't like Tupac was a sports car with his height and weight previously released as part of his stats. That's what they said he weighed and that's how tall they officially said he was. Unless someone could have measured him themself, I have to go with those figures.

Peace !
