A new report in from CNN provides new details about the heart attack that put her in the hospital days before she died. According to the report, Rivers started to have a heart attack when her doctor started performing a biopsy on her.
The CNN report corroborates an earlier report that Rivers had the heart attack after an unauthorized biopsy was performed on her. A source close to the investigation tells CNN the biopsy cut off oxygen to her lungs.
However, there is one other detail CNN has revealed tonight: her doctor took a selfie shortly before the procedure.

Evidently, the “selfie” failed to die its natural death the moment octogenarian lawmakers in Congress got involved.
