Alcohol confirmed as Winehouse death cause
The same verdict of misadventure was recorded at a re-hearing of the inquest — the first was heard by a coroner who did not have the correct qualifications.
The hearing yesterday was told that the Back To Black star was more than five times the legal drink- drive limit when she died, having 416mg of alcohol per decilitre of blood in her system. The legal driving limit in the UK is 80mg — the Irish is 50mg.
