New theories emerge in the murder of PR QUEEN RONNI CHASEN as coroner’s report rules homicide!
The Los Angeles County coroner’s office has completed its’ autopsy for Ronni Chasen, the top Hollywood publicist, who was shot five times before crashing her Mercedes-Benz in Beverly Hills after the Burlesque preem.
Winter said there will be no toxicology tests conducted in connection with the killing.
Chasen, 64, had attended the premiere and after-party Tuesday evening for the Cher film Burlesque. She was shot five times while driving home, and then rammed her car into a light-pole at around 12:30 a.m.
She was transported to Cedars-Sinai Medical Center in L.A., where she was pronounced dead.
The death sent aftershocks through Tinseltown, where Chasen was lauded for her long career and Oscar winning clients.
Former top cop, Andrew J. Scott III, retired police chief of the Boca Raton, Florida Police Department gave insight into the unexpected homicide scenarios.
"Clearly, this crime does not fit the MO of Beverly Hills ,which suggests to me that this is not a random killing. If this were a random act of violence, usually it’s going to be one or two shots — definitely not five," he said.
"Normally a contract killing involves multiple shot to the head.
"She was shot in the chest … and to me, clearly the individual did not want to damage her face. This could be a lead and it’s interesting to me she was NOT shot in the head."
Other theories suggest a new mob has moved onto the Hollywood scene and THEY wanted to send a big message to the powers and shakers that they mean business.
