UPDATE: The Death of Philip Seymour Hoffman

50 bags of heroin were found in the apartment of Philip Seymour Hoffman... YES! 50 BAGS!

Police are now trying to find out where Hoffman bought the heroin he overdosed on. His body is with the medical examiner and an autopsy is expected to be done later on Monday.

In his apartment, one of the five prescription drugs they found was buprenorphine, and heroin addicts take to help subside the nasty little habit.

The other drugs were:

Vyvanse- for attention-deficit disorder.

Methocarbamol- muscle relaxer.

Hydroxyzine- antihistamine.

Clonidine- for high blood pressure.

My Thoughts and Opinions:

It seems to me that he's been relapsed and using heavily for a long time. It too bad he started using again after 23 years of being sober.
SAD, SAD,SAD!

What do you think?

The Death of Philip Seymour Hoffman

The Death of Philip
Seymour Hoffman:

Philip Seymour Hoffman, who won the Oscar for his portrayal of writer Truman Capote was found dead in his apartment in New York City with a needle in his arm, his assistant found his body in the bathroom. He was only 46 years old.

He died of a drug overdose. Envelopes containing what was believed to be heroin were found with him and envelopes will be brought in for further testing.

After 23 years sober, he admitted in interviews last year to relapsing and developing a heroin problem that led to rehab.

On Sunday night, a black body bag was carried out on a stretcher, loaded into the back of a medical examiner's van and driven away.

Okay... Time for thoughts and opinions:
I'd give it a 10 on the Tragic Scale.
It's so sad...23 years sober and going strong...or so we thought. Too bad!

Tell me your opinion!
