Brittany Murphy’s Death Certificate Changed
More than a year after Brittany Murphy’s death, officials have changed her death certificate to include her father’s name. The change was necessary after Murphy’s father complained that he was blocked from visiting his daughter’s grave because of doubts he was a relative. Murphy’s parents divorced when she was just 2 years old and despite the fact that her father’s name appears on her birth certificate, it wasn’t listed on the death certificate until he petitioned for a change. Angelo Bertolotti says he has visited his daughter’s grave several times since the change without incident.
