Speculation surrouds the death of actress Brittany Murphy.

In other news, a California appeals court has denied an attempt by attornies representing Roman Polanski to have a sex charge against the film director dismissed on grounds of judicial misconduct. In 1978, Polanski fled the United States after pleading guilty to having unlawful sex with a minor. The legal battle renewed after the Oscar winner was arrested at a film festival in Switzerland, where he is currently being held.
