Cimino’s cause of death remains undetermined pending toxicology results, Coroner Dr. Joseph Campbell told LevittownNow.com.

“There was no signs of physical trauma,” Campbell said, adding that the 36-year-old’s body was in the process of decomposing and had likely been there more than a week.

The death is not currently being considered a homicide, officials said.

Bucks County District Attorney David Heckler said Saturday afternoon that county detectives are not involved in the investigation.
