An explosive new coroner's report reveals Hollywood star Natalie Wood was likely beaten aboard her yacht before he went overboard and drowned in 1981.
The Los Angeles County coroner's examination of the Wood case also found flaws in 'every major' finding of the previous autopsy report that led medical examiners to rule the Hollywood star's death an accident.
It's the latest step toward settling the question of whether Wood was murdered, or whether she accidentally fell overboard on her 60-foot yacht and drowned - as the original police investigation concluded.
The new coroner's examination asserts that bruises found on the actress' wrists, knees, and ankles were consistent with her being beaten - not, as the 1981 report concluded, caused by her struggling to climb back aboard to yacht after falling over the side.

Any medical examiner who declares Natalie Wood a "he" is suspect...
Maria . . .
(sings)
The most beautiful sound I ever heard:
Maria, Maria, Maria, Maria . . .
All the beautiful sounds of the world in a single word . .
Maria, Maria, Maria, Maria . . .
Maria!
I’ve just met a girl named Maria,
And suddenly that name
Will never be the same
To me.
Maria!
I’ve just kissed a girl named Maria,
And suddenly I’ve found
How wonderful a sound
Can be!
Maria!
Say it loud and there’s music playing,
Say it soft and it’s almost like praying.
Maria,
I’ll never stop saying Maria!
The most beautiful sound I ever heard.
Maria.
“Any medical examiner who declares Natalie Wood a “he” is suspect”
I know. While I’m sure it’s just a typo, she was a hottie.
Finding bruises on a 30 year old corpse is an odd career choice.
she was a fairly nice guy from queer across town, so they say.
The only Wood that doesn’t float...
Arguable one of the most beautiful woman that ever lived.
What kind of wood doesn’t float???
Natalie Wood.... :)
Interesting to read that she was married to a guy named Mark Wagner.
I’m no expert, but “...bruises found on the actress’ wrists, knees, and ankles...” doesn’t sound like a beating. Unless she was tied up at the time.
Maybe the wrists could be defensive bruises, but the ankles?
I thought the same thing. Bruises on her wrists, knees and ankles sounds exactly like what would happen to someone trying to climb back into a boat.
Looks like before long Wagner will be arrested for murder.
And one of the worst songs ever written.
In Soviet Hollywood, guns lose YOU in tragic boating accident!
I remember an article back then that said that people who knew her were surprised she was not killed years earlier as she was a class AAA BITCH when out of the sight of the press.
Thanks for the vocal.
I am afraid that our Maria, for whatever reason, was royally intoxicated, likely furious in addition, to want to strike out for the side boat, to which is normally a simple procedure when with assistance. Not so much when inebriated, alone and terrified of water. A tragedy on all counts, poor girl.
Money hopes play forever, trying to parlay decent evidence in the light of no known nefarious motive, by some kooks for cash.
BOOOOoooo :)
That is beyond question.
