A picture of Michael Jackson's autopsy will reportedly be released because an unidentified person has claimed to obtain the image.

It appears that the public will soon see the picture of Michael Jackson's autopsy. Writer Gerard Posner from The Daily Beast said he recently received a phone call from an unidentified person who allegedly obtained a picture of the late singer on autopsy table. "The picture is of Jackson's head only, and taken from the corpse's left side, from someone who was standing, and at about a 30-degree angle toward the body," Posner described the image as being told by the unknown person.

"The front of the pop star's skull is shaved. His ashen face is stripped of any makeup. The lips are flat and wide, but without lipstick. A scar, which he had hidden under makeup whenever he went out, is visible on his left check. His tattooed eyebrows are the only other visible mark on his face," Posner continued. According to Posner's source, the photo was not taken by cellphone because "the quality was far too good."

Michael Jackson passed away on June 25. Two months later, the Los Angeles County Coroner's Office has released a statement that mentioned the King of Pop's death has been ruled homicide. The 50-year-old pop singer has been laid to rest on September 3 at Holly Terrace in The Great Mausoleum at Glendale Forest Lawn Memorial Park in Glendale, California.
