Why Brittany Murphy's Death Is Still Such A Mystery

Brittany Murphy won the hearts and minds of movie lovers with her performances in such late '90s and early aughts classics as Clueless, 8 Mile, and Girl, Interrupted. But Murphy suddenly died in 2009, and her death is still a mystery.

According to Los Angeles County Assistant Chief Coroner Ed Winter, Murphy's death could have been prevented if she'd just sought medical attention when she first started feeling sick. According to E! News, both Murphy and her husband, Simon Monjack contracted a virus while she was still a part of the horror flick The Caller, filming in San Juan, Puerto Rico. Winter claimed that she had been sick for at least two weeks.

Monjack had reportedly convinced her that too many trips to the doctor would draw unwanted attention and add credence to industry gossip that Murphy was a, quote, "difficult actress."

The night before her death, Murphy allegedly approached both Monjack and her mother, Sharon, who lived with the couple, complaining of weakness and shortness of breath, but by the next morning it was too late.
