The Clark County coroner's office cannot determine a cause of death for Billie Jean James.
The 67-year-old woman was reported missing April 22. Her husband, Bill James, discovered her body on Aug. 25 in a cluttered back room of their home.
"It's undetermined but it's also accidental," said Las Vegas police spokeswoman Barbara Morgan. "There were no bullet holes, no gunshot wounds or anything like that. No foul play is suspected."
Morgan said the body's condition deteriorated for four months, making it impossible to determine how Billie Jean James died.
Police have closed the case.
