This undated photo provided by Blue Rider Press/Penguin shows award-winning 
journalist and war correspondent Michael Hastings.APThe Los Angeles Coroners 
Office says journalist Michael Hastings, who won fame writing the Rolling 
Stone article that ended General Stanley McChrystal's career, had drugs 
including amphetamines and marijuana in his system when he was killed in 
a fiery car crash in June.However, coroner's investigators said the drugs 
likely did not contribute to the crash, which they classified as an 
accident. Toxicology results showed small amounts of amphetamine in Hastings' 
blood, which indicated he had possibly taken methamphetamine many hours 
before his death. Traces of marijuana were also present, indicating he'd 
taken it hours earlier.Hastings cause of death was massive blunt force trauma, 
and the coroner determined he likely lost consciousness upon impact and 
died within seconds.The autopsy report came two months after Hastings' death 
on a deserted Los Angeles street fueled conspiracy theories and prompted 
the FBI to release an unusual statement that it had not been 
investigating him.Hastings died when his Mercedes, traveling at a high rate 
of speed, crossed into the median on Highland Avenue in Hollywood and 
struck a tree on June 18. The car burst into flames and 
Hastings' body was charred to the point that it took several days 
to positively identify him.The report states that Hastings had been "sober" 
for 14 years, but
 his family believed he had started using drugs 
again in the month before his death.According to investigators, the crash 
occurred a day after Hastings returned from New York, where his wife 
was living at the time, and hours before a brother was due 
to join another family member in urging Hastings to go to detox. 
Family members said Hastings had been using the hallucinogenic DMT recently, 
though the drug was not detected in a blood test after the 
crash.The names of family members who spoke to investigators were redacted 
in the report.The report said a family member had last seen Hastings 
passed out at home about three hours before the crash. The person 
said Hastings had been smoking marijuana the night before the crash.Investigators 
said Hastings was found after the crash with a medicinal marijuana identity 
card in his wallet, and that the drug apparently was used to 
ease post-traumatic stress disorder after his assignments in Afghanistan 
and Iraq.The report also noted that Hastings had hit a pole while 
driving several years ago and was possibly misusing Ritalin at the time. 
He was later institutionalized for rehabilitative care.A family member told 
investigators Hastings didn't have a history of suicide attempts but believed 
he was invincible and could jump off a balcony and be fine.At 
the time of his death, Hastings was working as a contributing editor 
for Rolling Stone and wrote about politics for Buzzfeed.He won a 2010 
George Polk
