What does all of this mean? In layman’s terms, the actor suffocated to death because of the way his body was positioned and being drunk played a part in how he ended up in that position. As for the coronary artery atherosclerosis? It is basically plaque build-up in his arteries. With these details in mind, the document stated that his death was ruled as an accident.
