Nancy Grace On Whitney Houston Death: 'Who Let Her Slip, Or Pushed Her, Underneath That Water?' (VIDEO)

Nancy Grace speculated on Monday that someone might have "pushed" Whitney Houston underwater, leading to her death.

The HLN host was speaking to CNN's Brooke Baldwin about the late music icon, who died suddenly on Saturday. Police said on Monday that she had been found underwater in the bathtub of the hotel room where she was found.

Grace appeared before the police's press conference. But she seemed to sense that some kind of foul play was afoot. Speaking about the prescription drugs found in Houston's hotel room, she wondered "who if anyone put it in her system or gave it to her?" Then, she went further.

"I'd like to know who was around her, who, if anyone gave her drugs...and who let her slip, or pushed her, underneath that water?" she said. "Apparently, no signs of force or trauma to the body. Who let Whitney Houston go under her water?"

"Might it have been one person, might it have been multiple people, all excellent questions," Baldwin said. "Again, we don't know the cause of her death."

Grace also said that she had learned that Houston was getting three different prescriptions for the same drug from three different doctors. "They were medicating her out the yin-yang," she said.

Minutes later, CNN's Don Lemon appeared on air. Without mentioning Grace's name, he stressed that any talk about Houston's prescriptions should not be taken as gospel.

"That is not CNN's reporting," he said. "We don't know that to be true."

Your perspective is interesting. It may be possible that the aunt was lured out of the room. The body guard also seemed to be away. Did you read where the old body guards said they did let takes bathes because of that fear of her drowning. If a slick supplier is trying to get her to try something new, he or she would have to get Whitney alone. To exchange money and take the hit together. My thought was that she was in the bathroom with someone. The two thumps heard was the other person catch her and falling with her against the wall the first time and then into the tub the second. That person may jar tried to revive her with water leaving her lying on her back. Noticing that she wasn't coming too, left with the water running. That person would be on the hotel camera. The Aunt might have been told to go check on Bobbi Kristina. There were probably other people in another part of the suite, they say that they saw nothing, but know who was with her and who exited. The Aunt comes back and nobody is talking. All afraid to speaking up.

Nancy was doing her job. Whitney Houston was a celebrity and with that comes alot of press good or bad. She was no saint. Just like Michael Jackson, or even Elvis Presely. There will be questions.

There are 3 fundamental truths about religion:
jews don't recognize Jesus as the son of god,
protestants don't recognize the pope as the vicar of christ,
and baptists don't recognize each other at a bar on saturday nights.

as an assistant pathologist who has performed along side our pathologists for many examinations (autopsies) i must disagree with ms grace. my remarks are in reference to her appearance on good morning america. a post examination sole purpose is to determine cause and manner of death. it does not automatically conclude that a decedent had met with foul play simply because an examination had been ordered or requested. there are times when family members will request an examination in order to put there curiousity to rest or help conclude a insurance claim ms grace's remarks (in my opinion) were irresponsible and insenitive also a pre-existing medical condition could cause an adult to drown in a bathtub a condition that would leave an adult incapacitated or unresponsive for a period of time

People, grow up, get on with living. A television personality voiced honest opinons about the death of a celebrity. Stop the childish disrespect and realize a television personality does her job, getting the attention of those off camera. Geeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeze.

See, this is what I do not understand about Nancy Grace, as a former prosecuting attorney (I mentioned this because she ALWAYS tells the viewing audience this information) she should knows NOT to make such a statement without proof, Nancy is totally WRONG. This is NOT the first time she has done this (and it won't be the last....TRUST!) She has NEVER based her opinions on facts ...this is HER personal opinion. Nancy loves controversy; however, this time she has stepped waaaay over the line and even her own colleagues have called her out on this! This time she has mess with the wrong one! I believe EVERYONE knows what I mean by that!

Oh, want to add...it I was one of those people in Whitney's suite at the time of death, I would sue her for Slander....oh, yes.. anyone who implies that I committed murder...you better have proof, and not just your opinion!

Well we see why you are not a lawyer....Slander has to be directed at a PERSON by name..but I will bet none of those firends who were in her suit are volunteering to come forward after what happened to Micheal Jacksons doctor.... Anyway she just said what everyone was thinking...now lets wait and see which friend in her suit becomes and person of intrest for the police and the prosecutor..

Nancy STILL keeps saying every night on her show that Whitney was "found under the water, her lungs SWIMMING. LIE! The coroner said on the very first day that there was NOT enough water in her lungs to cause drowning! Yet, they still let Nancy get away with this outright LIE. It needs to be stopped, in fact, they need to yank her off of this case altogether! She is demented. She wants this to be a murder case SOOOO BAD! She's a sick, dishonest, out of control lunatic.

Nancy Grace has to be the most offensive, prejudiced person in the media today. She gives journalism a bad name and I wish she would just disappear from my TV. I can't turn her off fast enough. She always gets something in that should offend any normal human being. The Whitney Houston debacle is just another case in point.

nancy that was very interesting that my mind went to exact same place when i heard the coroner found water in her lungs and whitney had talked to her mother or daugghter im not positive on that part not long before this all happened and she didnt seem to be messed up or drunk then the next thing we hear is shes dead and then coroner says there was water in her lungs i thought to myself who held her under the water i hope and pray this is not true but hopefully they get to the bottom of it

The cause of Whitney's death hasn't officially been determined yet, every one has an opinion, what if it's nothing like what people think? As to Nancy Grace, there's nothing graceful about her!
