What Killed Actor Heath Ledger?

There has been so much speculation about what caused Heath Ledger's death. Some have even speculated that he may have committed suicide or that he died from a drug overdose.

An autopsy, however, was conducted Wednesday morning, but the results were inconclusive and blood and tissue tests need to be completed. Mr. Ledger, 28, the Australian-born star of “Brokeback Mountain,” was found dead on Tuesday afternoon in bed in his apartment in SoHo, with a bottle of prescription sleeping pills nearby.

Although a rolled-up $20 bill was also found in the apartment, tests of the bill found no trace of drugs and no illegal drugs anywhere were found in his apartment. Mr. Ledger also left no suicide note.

The authorities, however, did find six different types of prescription drugs in Mr. Ledger’s apartment, including sleeping pills and anti-anxiety medicine. Three of the drugs were prescribed in Europe, but that can be explained by the fact that Mr. Ledger had recently returned to the United States from London. therefore, let's not jump to conclusions until all of the facts are in.
