According to the results of the forensic report, Payne would have been "unconscious or semi-conscious" at the time of the fall, suggesting that he did not assume a defensive posture to protect himself during the impact. The incident occurred at the Casa Sur hotel, located in the Palermo neighborhood, where Payne had been staying for several days prior.
The details of Liam Payne's autopsy are revealed
The medical report indicates that the singer died as a result of multiple traumas that caused internal and external hemorrhages. The cranial injuries were particularly severe and are considered to have been the main cause of his immediate death. The prosecutor's office in charge of the case has stated that, although other possibilities have not been ruled out, there were no signs of third-party involvement in the singer's death.
However, toxicological studies are being conducted to determine if Payne was under the influence of substances at the time of the fall. In the room, medications such as clonazepam were found, as well as a bottle of whiskey and fragments of objects that could have been used for drug consumption.
The police report also mentions that the place where the body was found showed a considerable disorder, including a broken TV screen and other damaged objects. These circumstances, along with the testimonies being collected, are part of an ongoing investigation to determine with greater certainty the events that led to Payne's fatal fall.
