A judge at the Fulton County Superior Court in Georgia has ordered Bobbi Kristina Brown's autopsy result to be released to public.
It will now be clear as to what happened to Whitney Houston's 22-year-old daughter who died eight months ago after falling unconscious, reported Ace Showbiz.
The autopsy was unsealed on Thursday but the medical examiner's officer "has not received a signed authorization from the court indicating whether we can release information and, if so, what type of information can be released."
Meanwhile, District Attorney Paul Howard begged to differ and wanted to keep it off public for "safety and investigative reasons".
"It is our feeling that those valid reasons still exist; however, as citizens and officers of the court we must, nevertheless, follow the orders and instructions of the court," Howard said in a statement.
"We would hope that news agencies and the media receiving the report would do so with the discretion and dignity a family who has lost a loved one deserves. Our investigation into the death of Bobbi Kristina Brown will continue."
Speculations and accusations surrounded Bobbi Kristina's death.
She died in July last year, six months after she was found unresponsive in a bathtub in her Atlanta townhouse.
She was reportedly using heroin and other drugs when she was found in the bathtub.
Bobbi Kristina's court-appointed conservator Bedelia Hargrove filed a wrongful death lawsuit against Bobbi Kristina's boyfriend Nick Gordon, alleging he "injected" her with a "toxic mixture".
