Authorities are calling the death of That 70's Show actress, Lisa Robin Kelly suspicious. They are investigating the facility where she died and the doctor who declared her dead. They want to know why the facility failed to call the coroner for at least four hours after the death of the actress. The only reason they called at all was because reports had showed up on the news and the coroner started making inquiries. Right there is enough for me to think the place was doing something sketchy. Why wait that long? Wouldn't you want to have someone come remove the body as quickly as possible?
The coroner is also upset because the doctor named a cause of death that could never be established without an autopsy which further leads to the conclusion that something sketchy was going on. I can't wait to see what kinds of drugs they find in her system. I bet it is going to be a lot more than just the rehab drugs the facility indicated. They are hiding something and were trying to use that time to cover their tracks.
'Well, this is interesting. Wasn't expecting this at all.
ReplyDeleteWas this one of those sedation rapid detox joints?
ReplyDeletePoor broad never gonna have peace.
Very sad. Interested to see what happened.
ReplyDeleteI wonder what was in her system too.
ReplyDeleteWait detox facilities use drugs? Isn't that counter to their reason?
ReplyDeleteWell i was going to say it could be case of star down on their luck, killed for their money, but what money???
ReplyDeleteYeah, that is suspicious. At least someone is looking into it. I wonder if the facility gave her too much of something or the wrong mix of something and accidentally killed her. Very sad.
ReplyDeleteRe: "The only reason they called at all was because reports had showed up on the news and the coroner started making inquiries."
ReplyDeleteI'm not sure I understand. The media found out about her death before the coroner did? So who contacted the press? They didn't contact the coroner for four hours but someone contacted someone in that time ...
Confused.
Sherry - Most "detox" facilities use things like valium to help calm the DTs and make the transition to "sober." Since alcohol withdrawal can be so hard on the body, they provide some sort of sedative or calming meds to reduce the amount of stress on the body. I think.
ReplyDeleteThe question here is that if they did provide sedation, did they do too much? If they didn't, did she have a heart attack from the withdrawal stress?
I wondered how they figured out it was a heart attack in her sleep. It's not like there would be an visible signs of it.
ReplyDeleteDoes anyone know if this is a Scientology based NarCONon facility? Lots of mysterious deaths at those.
ReplyDeleteI wondered the same thing!!!
DeleteWas Lisa Robin Kelly Scientologist?
ReplyDeleteI don't know if she was or not, but unfortunately you don't have to be a Sci-bot to get roped into one of these places. They kill regular people too.
DeleteExactly what I was thinking, Pot. I know Sicentology runs detox programs.
DeleteI asked if she was one because Danny Masterson was one, and you know how they 'reach' out to other to rope them in their cult.
ReplyDeleteSo is Laura Prepon.
DeleteDetoxing from alcohol can be lethal. Drugs are used to keep the body calm. Adavan is a common drug used in this process because it hits the same receptors in the brain as alcohol making the detox safer. If anyone has concerns about their own alcohol use and withdrawal go to trained professionals. If they don't find at least one detox drug in her system that facility will be in big trouble!!! She needed help so she wouldn't die from going cold turkey.
ReplyDeleteDTs kill people. They said they hadn't given her anything. That is just WRONG if they didn't.
ReplyDeleteWhat Ktamc said.
ReplyDeleteShe wouldn't even have to be a Scientology to be in a Narconon rehab. They advertise everywhere but they don't put their link to Scientology anywhere in their ads.
ReplyDeleteIf the doctor listed the cause of death as something that needed an autopsy to confirm why is that shady? The coroner would have to confirm that then and would know if the doctor was lying. Why wouldn't the doctor list something that wouldn't need an autopsy and say he was with her at the time of death. That would be sketch.
That's not to say she went to a narconon facility or didn't have a sketchy death.
It isn't suspicious. Detoxing is dangerous, and people die doing it.
ReplyDeleteI understand that alcohol withdrawal -- the DTs -- is the only kind of detox that can actually kill you (as opposed to all the other kinds of detoxes where you just wish you were dead). So I'm wondering if her going cold turkey was the issue.
ReplyDelete@ Count, I didn't realize they actually did those sedation detoxes. I remember it from Valley of the Dolls (wasn't it to lose weight in that one?), but I thought it was abandoned a long time ago. Shows what I know.
ReplyDeleteI think the Oxie/Smack epidemic going around brought it back. I remember hearing ads for it on the radio a couple years ago. Like 24 hr detox.
ReplyDeleteI'm not scared of the dentist, but I would go to a Sedation Dentist if it isn't too pricey. When I was a kid, my dentist would tell you to bring a cassette, put it in a walkman for you, then crank the gas up until you went out. When I tried to do that, with deep breaths, at another dentist, the broad cut me off from the gas.
@Lady WaWa - I was thinking the same thing. How did the media find out about it before the coroner did? What kind of leaky ship are they running there? So strange.
ReplyDeleteMaybe it was a death like Jean Harlow. She died after her husband beat her. Uremic failure??
ReplyDeleteIIRC, most of the more salacious BS stories about Jean Harlow came about after one particular book was published in the '60s, so don't believe most of what you read about her. Yes, she really did die of uremic poisoning/kidney failure (you can see her getting puffy and looking worse and worse in photos during the last year or so of her life); at that point in time there was nothing that could be done about it, so it wasn't a question of her mother refusing treatment for her, and it had nothing to do with her husband beating her, which, as I understand it, never happened anyway. (There's a decent amount of evidence that her husband's death wasn't a suicide, but that he was murdered by his crazy first wife, who IIRC killed herself not long thereafter.) There's a reason Jean was known as "Baby"; she was very much loved by everyone in Hollywood, and people were genuinely devastated when she died. Just trying to set the story straight...
ReplyDeleteDidn't Amy Winehouse die from the DT's? She was going to stop cold turkey if I remember correctly.
ReplyDeleteMaybe someone from the rehab place called reporters. A nurse, a janitor, or a fellow patient. Whether the facility was waiting to contact her family before doing anything, or whatever, I find not calling the coroner strange, and secretive.
I know hospitals call the family, the coroner, and the funeral home if no autopsy will be needed.
Enty... Do you think this is sketchy?
