Heath Ledger

You've probably heard by now that the Chief Medical Examiner for New York City has made it official that Heath Ledger died from accidentally overdosing on prescription drugs.

"Mr. Heath Ledger died as the result of acute intoxication by the combined effects of Oxycodone, Hydrocodone, Diazepam, Temazepam, Alprazolam, and Doxylamine," said an announcement released Wednesday morning by office spokeswoman Ellen Borakove.

"We have concluded that the manner of death is accident, resulting from the abuse of prescription medications," the two-paragraph statement said in its entirety.

That's a lot of stuff! He took 6 different intense medications at one time and it's considered an accident? I once crapped in my pants and that was an "accident," but I'm not sure taking all those drugs at once can be really classed as the same thing. More like he knew he was screwing himself up and didn't really care what happened. If "planned overdose" was a movie role, Heath would get the Oscar Award hands down....
