LOS ANGELES, Calif. -- Caption Michael Jackson outside the courtroom in Santa Maria, CA, 2005Toxicology reports stemming from the autopsy of Michael Jackson are expected to be released next week, a rep for the Los Angeles County Coroner’s Office told Access Hollywood on Friday.

The rep confirmed that the toxicology reports in Michael Jackson’s case have been completed.

A few reports are being finalized and have yet to be signed, but the information is expected to be made public some time next week, the rep said.

The LA County Coroner conducted the first autopsy on the body of Michael Jackson following his death a month ago. A second, private autopsy was authorized by the Jackson family shortly after the first one.

Last week, the Coroner’s Office announced that autopsy reports were taking longer than expected.

Additionally, earlier this week, an official at the LA County Coroner’s Office told the Associated Press that around half a dozen workers in the department improperly viewed Michael Jackson’s death certificate.
