    this is so sad,such a waste of a young life. i remember growing up and to be an actress or actor was such a glamorous thing. it's a shame that now it's associated with drug overdoses and people losing their children because they can't deal with life. our society is really going down the toilet. maybe we should start focusing our energy on things that really matter in the world. just think what we could do!

    CNN is reporting it was over the counter sleeping pills they found near his body. Tragic -he did have a sort of haunted look in his eyes. He was a fine actor. RIP, Ennis.

  30. Come on People says – reply to this


    330

    Everyone is assuming that the man was a drug abuser. It said they found a bottle of pills is all. Perhaps because Michelle and Matilda recently left him it was intentional. Or maybe there were other factors involved. Don't just assume he OD'd from partying.
