I don't know all the legal stuff, but I assume it's up to the family for it to be confidential or a public record.

No, celebrities belong to the public in life and death.

It's up to the family.
If they want to share the details with that person's fans, then so be it.

Who cares. What they did while they were alive is all that matters. They are gone. The End.

I think people, especially fans of the deceased, deserve to know.
People invest a lot of interest, money, love and admiration and they too are mourning the loss. It's closure.

Who cares if it gets released, the person is dead anyway.

There are some newspapers that post all of the divorce filings every month at the courthouse
Kinda off-topic but I always thought that was wrong!

Why out of some false sense of respect, ppl are always going to want to know why someone died, you can't stop that.

Aren't all records of death public information?
Whatever the case, I don't think celebrities should be treated any different than everyone else.

No, he was famous. It should be public.

I think if it's circumstantial, then no, it's the public's right to know.
