Illegal Drugs Found In Ledger's Apartment!!! Not Just Pills!!!!!!
His death may not have been a suicide, but drugs - not just sleeping pills - more likely than not also played a part in the untimely passing of Heath Ledger.
WCBS in New York is reporting that drug packets were found inside the actor's SoHo Apartment, as well as a $20 bill with narcotic residue.
Several drug packets containing an unknown substance were found listed on the official police report from the scene.
It is possible that these items didn't belong to Ledger or that he didn't ingest them on the day of his death, but several reports have stated that Heath had been battling sobriety recently.
In addition to the unknown substances, several bottles of prescription meds were discovered in Ledger's apartment, including bottles of the prescription anxiety drugs Valium and Zoloft, along with the prescription sleeping medication Ambien.
This might be another Anna Nicole Smith.
Kids, drugs and abusing prescription meds are bad. Don't do them! BUT, if you are, and you shouldn't, then don't mix them!!!

RIP Heath Legerrrr aahhah
I was watching the "Dark Knight" trailer this morning and couldn't help but notice how similar Heath Ledger's character resembles Brandon Lee's character in "The Crow". Both actors died during or shortly after playing these roles and both were 28 years old. Anyone else notice this?
I love this site and all but come on Heath was a good guy stop hammering in that they found SLEEPING PILLS near him Not DRUGS……
oh no. how awefull

I want to know the details!!

That is going to be so sad if this is true.
I thought the drugs found were sleeping pills???? Wasnt that released already??? I really hope that they dont find something horrible and make him look evil!
While the circumstances of their deaths are different, does anyone else find it eery that both Brandon Lee and Heath Ledger died at the age of 28 and, while speculatively in the case of Heath, as the result of the face painted, dark movie characters roles they were playing that look very, very similar?
Brandon was killed on the set of the Crow and Heath reportedly had fallen in to a depression and psychosis brought on by internalizing his Joker character which led to his need for pills that led to his accidental death (again speculation).
Look at pics of Brandon as the Crow and Heath as the Joker…Spooky how close they resemble one another. Even their facial structure and hair.
A real trajedy to lose these young men. Obviously, in the case of Heath, one was a very respected and accomplished actor while Brandon was just trying to make a name for himself.
awwwwww
first
omg
first! knew it
Hope the family feels better soon.
Re: Edwin –
sorry…just noticed your post….
yes…I obviously noticed. Freaky coincidence.
First!!!
um ya we already know this
The dismaying sense of loss and waste at Mr. Ledger’s death at the age of 28 comes not only because he was so young, but also because his talent was large and as yet largely unmapped. It seems inevitable that he will now be inscribed in the cult of the beautiful stars who died too young, alongside James Dean, Montgomery Clift and Marilyn Monroe. Even before his death, he had been ensnared in a pathological gossip culture that chews up the private lives of celebrities, and Tuesday’s news unleashed the usual rituals of media cannibalism.

first….. What a terrible accident
First

=[ heathhhh noooo!!!
FIRST! Shit….
Fuck You Perez!! RIP HEATH…You will be missed
Too bad I knew about this 15 hours ago!
Source??? Stop spreading rumors perez!! If you are going to report important things then show your source! Or do you just make this crap up as you go along??
And the next headline will be the same…only with AMY WINEHOUSE. These people are in serious need of help, good god.
tragic… i didn't see him as the type to possibly OD
R.I.P Heath!!! You will be missed.
HEATH! (L)
Why oh why!
:(
so sad.
please tell us soon everything you know. his family's in my thoughts and prayers
Is that Really that surprising
ledger is ledgend(legend)
i love heath ledger forever
poor heath
i heard he was in mary-kate's manhattan apartment, not sure if it was true, but thats just what i heard…and isn't mary-kate the alleged druggie?! hmmm…
It's looking more and more that he died from an overdose of drugs or some bad combination of prescription and illegal drugs. It's always sad to see someone with such a promising future to die at a young age. Maybe he is in a better place now out of the pressure of a cruel world where the more you have the bigger price you have to pay to live.
i miss him so much. ='(
He can't be gone. He can't. Please come back Heath, please. ='(((
Just let this dude RIP and let's get back to Brit Brits craziness!!
P…whatcha smokin there my friend? WE KNOW this. Do you mean ILLEGAL drugs? Ummmm… SOHO… gonna go with POT my friend and nobody dies from pot….if there were illegal or street drugs. So far credible sources site that there were meds NEATLY in the bedroom and in the bathroom all prescribed and in their bottles.
poor poor matilda
"Drugs"…so what? Why the hype? Shouldn't we be asking whether there's any connection between the housekeeper and the massage therapyst? Have we heard the "911" call reporting the tragedy? Was there any sign of a struggle or was his a peaceful death. He could have suffered from sleep apnea and that could explain why the sheets were all messed up, if they were. Did they have to break open the bedroom door? These are questions that can be answered and should be reported by Perez.
this death is so sad !!!! he was such an amazing actor, he had a two-year old daughter and he was only twenty-eight!!! it is just so terrible that he could have been so depressed!!
R x I x P heath xx
Re: Kris – nope wasnt her apt and the building is 23K a month per apt and is uninhabited EXCEPT for him… its SUPPOSED To be reserved for artists and the such that are working and funded by some program but that hasnt been the case in years…. they generally rent to superstars and the young with deep pockets but there is a recession now so the trust fund babies aint interested
poor ledgy
WHY DOES EVERYONE WANT TO BE FIRST? honestly its retarded. you don't get any special prize for being "first". most of you aren't ever first anyways so quit doing it, its obnoxious.
by the way, who cares about the fact that brandon lee / heath ledger died under ""the same" circumstances. what are you saying, its a curse or that they were murdered? shut up.
This is really sad=( Please don't talk to much about the bad things. He's not here to defend himself. Let him have peace.
R. I. P. Heath
Re: friend –
Lame comparison. Absolutely nothing similar about them. So what? They both wore face paint in roles. And they were both (GASP) 28.
People are fucking retarded. What kind of fucking nutjob tries to connect a possible suicide and a freak accident between two people, both who happen to be men who were both (GASP, AGAIN!) 28 years old.
Quit playing gay detective and hang it up douche bag. You wasted 45 seconds of my time with your post.
Oh, first.
ps: they knew there were drugs beside of his body yesterday so what in the fuck makes this breaking news? Different drug? Big shit. We know it was an overdose, who really cares. The coronor reports was inconclusive so far which means it wasn't a huge overdose of anything. If they find something, it'll most likely be traces of drugs, not a huge amount.
Dear Perez,
I am very sad about the news of Heath's passing and, perhaps this time, you could refrain from publishing speculation. My family just went through the chaos of a tragic and public death and the media circus and the uncertainty can be atrocious. Show some dignity with respect to this case. Your readers will appreciate a change of style on your reporting this untimely death. Heath was a true artist, his highly sensitive nature is probably to blame for his demise. Please repsect him, he is not Britney Spears.
So unbelievably tragic, but the best thing the media can do is to allow his family to grieve in peace. Not that they have done this to Ledger's family, but it's disgusting when they lurk outside family homes to get a story. I think this is one of those cases where it was so sudden and so unexpected that his family must be numb with shock, and flashing paparazzi bulbs are hardly helpful when coming to terms with the loss of a loved one. I hope the media gives them time for this.
Hey Perez-Brad Renfro and Heath Ledger all in a weeK>>>>???Could it be that a drug dealer to the stars has some bad shit and people are OD'ing on accident??I'm emailing you!
I'm a news junkie and have heard none of this. There weren't pills strewn around the room and there's even conflicting reports as to where he was found, in the bed or on the floor. Please don't speculate. He's not just a celebrity, he's a person who has a family and friends. Be respectful…what goes around comes around Perez!
OMFG this is retarded. VALIUM is often prescribed with ZOLOFT. Zoloft is taken DAILY. VALIUM is taken during acute panic attacks which by the way feel the same as a heart attack. So that is first. AMBIEN is almost ALWAYS prescribed with BOTH Zoloft and an acute (immediate response) anti anxiety because MANY people with ANXIETY also suffer from INSOMNIA. Its a pill nation people but look this up in the PDR NONE of these are contra indicated together. Can we PLEASE stop this bullshit of trying to make the guy a fuckin drug addict? Can ya chill the fuck out and wait for the autopsy tox report which by the way is being run because……..
OOOOOOH science pay attention kiddies…..
coming up next!
Re: & – LOL I agree, maybe Perez should find another job seeing as we are more up to date with the latest news head lines than he is.
I'm sick of celebrities and their so-called problems. Waaah I make millions every year and only work a few months out of the year, waah I have a beautiful baby….waah I owns homes all over the world…waah… waah…waah…I need drugs…I can't sleep. Try raising kids and working on $40K a year and making a house payment…that will depress you.
So Sad!!!! we all knew this was coming!
Ready? Okay during an autopsy an IMMEDIATE drug screen through bodily fluids is run for EVERY substance documented in the house. IF the initial panel comes up NEGATIVE they have to start running tissue samples and full blood panels to establish if there ARE ANY SUBSTANCES AT ALL. Thats when they run them all. THEY WILL ALSO begin to look at an illness and virus which TAKES WEEKS. Bacteria takes DAYS to grow. And finally disection of organ tissue will occur and be evaluated. SO actually, the failure to establish a DRUG OD off the preliminary would make anyone with an EDUCATION and who does research move AWAY from the idea of a DRUG OD. Assholes need to learn to research. WHAT HAS HAPPENED TO THE NEWS LATELY?
i cannot fucking believe he is dead
its just not even funny, he was such a good actor,
hmmmm
Don't speculate.
This is tragic and he has a little girl who one day will be rreading all this SHIT.
What for the toxicology reports before speculating!
Have some respect asshole!
Don't taint someones name after death if you couldn't do it while they were alive….
Re: Kris – FIRRRRRST
Perez stop trying to turn this into something horrible about this. He is dead and you are trying to make it sound like heroin. You suck you should fry in hell for the shit you print .SOMEONE HAS TO FIND SOME SHIT ON YOU AND RUIN YOUR ASS!
Re: Edwin – My daughters and myself noticed the same thing and it was kinda freeky. My oldest daughter has a book on celeb deaths and even in that "Heath" looks frighteningly similar to "Brandon Lee".
I Love your site Perez, but please before jumping to any conclusions and comparing Heath to Anna Nicole Smith, give his family and friends time to grieve without having to deal with speculations. God Bless him and his little girl and may he rest in peace!!!!
