Ventura County Medical Examiner's Office released the autopsy's findings on Tuesday, July 14, confirming that the body found on Monday was the 33-year-old actress. 
 
'The circumstances and visual characteristics all indicated that the body was that of Naya Rivera and the identity has been confirmed by dental comparison,' the report states.
 
'The autopsy findings are consistent with a drowning and the condition of the body is consistent with the time that she was submerged. 
 
'No traumatic injuries or disease processes were identified at autopsy.
 
'There is no indication from the investigation or examination that drugs or alcohol played a role in the decedent's death, but specimens will be submitted for toxicology testing,' it added. 

The Glee star went missing during a boating trip with her 4-year-old son, Josey Dorsey on July 8. Before she was found, her son told police that his mum "jumped into the water but didn't come back up" after he was found floating on the boat alone.
 
Naya's body was recovered from the northeast portion of Lake Piru, located 50 miles north of Los Angeles, on Monday after she went missing last week.
 
Her family released their first statement and paid tribute to Rivera after the autopsy confirmed her death.


'We are so grateful for the outpouring of love and prayers for Naya, Josey and our family over the past week,' they told Deadline. 


'While we grieve the loss of our beautiful legend, we are blessed to honor her everlasting legacy and magnetic spirit. Naya was an amazing talent, but was an even greater person, mother, daughter and sister.


'Thank you to the men and women of the Ventura, Tulare, and San Luis Obispo County Sheriff’s Departments for your commitment and unwavering effort to find Naya,' the statement added. 


'We extend endless gratitude and ovation to the heroine who found her. Thank you to her friends, colleagues, and fans for your continuous support.

'Heaven gained our sassy angel. We kindly request that our privacy be respected during this very difficult time.'

Big Sean pens touching tribute to his ex-fiancée Naya Rivera after her tragic death







Rapper, Big Sean has paid a touching tribute to ex-fiancée Naya Rivera, 33, after her tragic death. 

The Glee actress’s body was found in Lake Piru on Monday, July 13, four days after she went missing during a boat trip with her four-year-old son Josey.

Her death was ruled as accidental drowning and there was no indication that traumatic injury, drugs or alcohol played a part in her death.  Investigators said before Naya lost her life she mustered up the energy to get her son back into the boat, saving his life before she sink underwater.

Big Sean, 32, has now broken his silence, saying he is ‘still grieving and in shock’ over her sudden death. 
 
Posing a black and white picture of Naya, as well as a photo of her cuddling son, the rapper wrote:  ‘Rest In Peace Naya, God Bless your Soul! Thank you for blessing us all with your talent and presence. 

‘You are a hero! Not just because of how you saved your son, also because of the barriers you knocked down for so many people to make them feel confident in themselves and to stand tall and be proud when they couldn’t achieve that on their own. 
 
‘I appreciate and cherish everything that ever happened between us for making me wiser and a better person. I’m still grieving and in shock, I can’t believe this is real.

 ‘I’m praying for you and your family and I know your watching over them and protecting them. Rest In Peace Naya.’
 

 
Big Sean and Naya who dated for months got engaged in September 2013. In April 2014, the pair broke off their engagement over cheating allegations. 

After the split, Naya began dating actor Ryan Dorsey and married him in July 2014, the same date she and Sean were set to tie the knot.  They welcomed their son Josey in September 2015.

After two years of marriage, Naya and Ryan split and their divorce was finalised in 2018, with both sharing joint custody of Josey.
