Sleeping Pills Initially To Blame
Filed under: Australiastic > Heath Ledger
An autopsy is scheduled in the tragic death of Heath Ledger for Wednesday, but it will be weeks at least before we have a conclusive answer as to his passing.
What is known now is that police are saying sleeping pills were found in the room where his body was discovered naked and dead on Tuesday.
Two bottles of sleeping aids were found, it's being reported, one prescription bottle and one over-the-counter, which would make an accidental overdose more likely. Experts say that it is harder to overdose on just prescription sleeping pills.
Our heart aches for Heath's little daughter, Matilda, aged 2.
So tragic.

that sucks, he was very talented actor. is very sad
it's weird that OTC pills would be easier to overdose on, you'd think the opposite. so sad about his daughter, it will make the dark knight even scarier to watch
so tragic
rip
prescription pills aren't stronger?
very Sad
We already know isleeping pills were found does that need a new post!! seriously perez get some new news its hardly exclusive.
RIP
def not a suicide. he was waiting for his massuse. you can tell he was healthy and into taking care of his body just by that alone. plus he was the joker in the new Batman movie coming out this year…so much ahead of him. definitely an accident. a tragic accident.
first! bitches!!
Perez how about you just shut up until you know the truth instead of sensationalizing someone's tragic demise. It's really disgusting. Even more disgusting than your fashion sense and taste in music.
I cried when I heard this 5 mins ago, came straight onto perez's site… omg/
what a huge loss
this is awful. its so shocking and heartbreaking.
:[
It's really hard to believe that he's gone.

Straight up shocking
This is so depressing! I really respected him as an actor.

omggg.

So sad, his poor family
i feel so bad for his daughter, and he was so young. It's still so unbelievable.
So sad:( All I can think about is that poor little girl not being able to grow up with her father. Such a tragedy:(
comments r as bad as criticisms
so sad…
I can only hope and pray that his little girl will grow up to know what a wonderful actor her father was. He was a great actor that kept to himself and didn't crave attention like some of the other celebs out there.. So tragic
I hate to say it but I bet it was suicide. Men usually commit suicide for two reasons: money or a women… I think he was distraught over Michele. We may never know if it was accidental of intentional
:( I'll miss you!
VERY SAD……..
i think im going to cry. Perez i think you should do some kind of tribute to him.
Another talent lost because of some stupid drug overdose. I hope it was accidental for his family's sake.
This is painfully sad…………..Heath, you WILL BE MISSED.
so sad. I'll miss him so much
this is so sad ..

How truly awful. I just keep thinking that his friends and family found out by reading on the Internet.
late news

R.I.P., mate!
1st. That's sad! Did he/michelle end on bad terms? Maybe he killed himself because he was sad about her?
DON"T FUCKING POST FIRST FOR SHIT LIKE THIS!!!!
R.I.P. He was talented, beautiful and bright. He will be sadly missed. My heart, thoughts, and prayers go out to his Daughter, Family, and Friends.
They all die naked..
this is so sad… and so sudden i cant believe it!

I'm from Melbourne, Australia, and was a big fan of Heath's when I was a teen after he appeared on one of our soapies here called Home and Away about 11 years ago. I was watching our morning news when this came through as a breaking story and was in complete shock, totally unexpected news. I also just watched another news update that said Heath's parents found out about his death over the radio. I feel so sorry for them.
R.I.P. Heath xox
i am crying :'(
instead of homework tonight i'll be watch
