Though he refuses to release any details on results of Michael Jackson's autopsy, Assistant Chief Ed Winter claims the complete results will be announced immediately.

Partial results of Michael Jackson's autopsy, which can reveal the cause of his death, are in. However, Assistant Chief Ed Winter tells Radar Online that he won't release any details until the whole test results are complete. "Some of the test results are in for Michael Jackson, not all of them. We don't release a partial list of results, we wait until all of the results are in and then make it public," Winter says in a statement.

Winter promises that his office will make public the results by Friday, July 17 or earlier next week. "We are going to try and give the media one day notice about the announcement. I can't comment on if the brain of Michael Jackson has been returned to the family, nor any other elements of the investigation," he continues telling Radar Online.

Michael Jackson passed away on June 25 after suffering cardiac arrest. Earlier autopsy, which was held a day after his death, showed no external trauma and indication of foul play. Craig Harvey, the chief coroner investigator of L.A. County Coroner's Office, said Jackson took "some prescription medications" before suffering cardiac arrest, but he could not say what those drugs were until some further tests were taken.
