Lisa Robin Kelly’s Death a Mystery as No Drugs found in Her Body Prior to Her Death
I just assumed that the autopsy would reveal a plethora of high profile drugs and this would be another simple case of a Hollywood has been that overdosed. Well not so much….at least yet.
As part of the investigation surrounding LRK’s death, the L.A. County Coroner visited the Pax Rehab House where the actress was staying and where she reportedly died in her sleep. The staff of the Pax House told authorities that Lisa was not given any drugs prior to her death. Furthermore there were no apparent signs of trauma that are usually visible by overdose victims. Her body seemed fine, there was no vomit in her airways and no liquors or drugs in her room.
In fact Lisa’s agent, Craig Wykoff said that the actress seemed to be in control and upbeat voluntarily checking herself into rehab,
“Lisa had voluntarily checked herself into a treatment facility early this week where she was battling the addiction problems that have plagued her these past few years. I spoke to her on Monday and she was hopeful and confident, looking forward to putting this part of her life behind her,
So far L.A. County Sheriff’s department and the Coroner have not released a cause of death.
Before anyone starts to get too carried away, let’s not forget that the actress was brought to the Rehab House with a blood alcohol level of .34. Anything over a .30 could easily lead to death. I would not necessarily call that “checking herself in”. With a BAC of .34 you would volunteer for anything.
The mystery isn’t how did she die so much as what mixture of alcohol and drugs shut down which one of her organs. She was only 43 years old.
