Cheryl MacWillie said.An autopsy will determine the cause of death and there were no other details, she said. Police Sgt. Michael Kammert said there’s no evidence of foul play. Haim acknowledged his struggle with drug abuse to The Sun in 2004.“I was working on ‘Lost Boys’ when I smoked my first joint,” he told the British tabloid.“I did cocaine for about a year and a half, then it led to crack,” he said. Haim said he went into rehabilitation and was put on prescription drugs. He took both stimulants and sedatives such as Valium. “I started on the downers which were a hell of a lot better than the uppers because I was a nervous wreck,” he said. “But one led to two, two led to four, four led to eight, until at the end it was about 85 a day.” http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/21134540/vp/35796600#35796600 very sad, another person drugs have killed.

Ladywriter 7,783 Report post Posted March 26, 2010 Its perfectly legal to go to your doctor and have him hook you up w/ a pharmy cocktail. It is these Rx-legal drugs that are killing the shit out of people. Look at the list of celebs that died in the past 6 months or so; Rx drug overdose. While we're wasting time money and lives the war on drugs has turned the borderlands into killing fields. Legalize and tax pot already. My sis was watching some of the coverage. One of his ex girlfriends said it was a publicist still alive and well that molested Corey when he was a kid Look at the flowers Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
