It was previously reported the toxicology results could take several days. However, the results were expedited because of the extreme public interest in the case, according to E! News.

The "Glee" star was found dead in a hotel room at the Fairmont Pacific Rim hotel in downtown Vancouver on July 13 after failing to meet checkout time. Hotel staff called paramedics, who later declared him dead on the scene. He was just 31 years old.
