Did law enforcement release the cause of death for Virginia Giuffre?

1. What law enforcement publicly said — “not suspicious” and an investigation under way

West Australia police told reporters they were called to Giuffre’s home and that Major Crime detectives were investigating; their early indication was that the death was “not suspicious,” a formulation repeated in contemporaneous accounts ^[1]. Coverage indicates police framed the matter as an active investigation rather than an immediate, final ruling of cause ^[1].

2. How family and representatives described the cause — “died by suicide”

Giuffre’s family issued a statement saying she died by suicide; major outlets such as NBC News and the BBC reported that family statement and characterized the death as suicide in their headlines and ledes ^{[2] [1]}. Her spokesperson and domestic legal representatives likewise described her death in terms consistent with suicide in follow-up pieces ^[4].

3. What the coroner’s role and status were in reporting

Multiple reports stressed that a coroner would ultimately determine the formal cause of death and that that determination was expected to be based on evidence collected during the investigation; Giuffre’s Australia-based attorney explicitly said the coroner would establish the cause “in due course” ^{[3] [4]}. Current reporting in these sources does not provide a final coroner’s report or a detailed forensic finding ^{[3] [4]}.

4. Conflicting voices and family disputes

Not all family members accepted the suicide characterization; some relatives publicly expressed disbelief and suspicion, with at least one family member quoted insisting she “didn’t die by suicide” and asserting “somebody got to her,” illustrating internal disagreement and fueling alternative narratives ^[5]. Coverage records both the family’s official statement and these dissenting family reactions ^{[1] [5]}.

5. Medical context and recent health incidents reported before her death

Reporting noted Giuffre had been hospitalized in late March after a serious car crash and had publicly said she suffered kidney failure; some accounts also referenced claims of other injuries and alleged domestic abuse in the months before her death. These medical and trauma-related details have been reported alongside the accounts of her death but are not presented as definitive causal findings linking those events to the death in the sources provided ^[6].

6. Posthumous accounts and how they shape public perception

Subsequent coverage of Giuffre’s posthumous memoir and interviews reiterates her traumatic history and the high-profile nature of her accusations against Epstein, Maxwell and others; that context has influenced how news outlets and readers interpret and react to the circumstances of her death, amplifying questions and skepticism among some observers ^{[7] [8] [9]}.

7. What the available sources do not say or confirm

Available sources do not publish a public coroner’s final cause-of-death ruling in the materials provided here; they also do not provide detailed forensic findings, toxicology results, or the coroner’s official narrative ^{[3] [1]}. If you are seeking the coroner’s conclusive determination or an official autopsy report, that is not found in the current reporting supplied.

8. How to interpret these competing statements

Journalistic practice and the reporting here separate: (a) immediate law-enforcement descriptions of an investigation and “not suspicious” initial impressions ^[1]; (b) family and spokesperson statements declaring the death a suicide ^{[2] [4]}; and (c) family dissent and unanswered forensic details that leave space for dispute ^{[5] [3]}. Each of these is documented in the coverage; none of the supplied sources contains a publicly released coroner’s final report to definitively close the matter ^[3].

If you want, I can list which outlets to monitor for a formal coroner’s finding or pull direct quotes from the police and family statements in these sources.
