Update: Possible Illegal Drugs In Ledger Death Apartment


WCBS in New York is reporting that possible evidence of illegal drugs was found in the apartment where Heath Ledger died. Sources say police found a $20 bill with drug residue on it and packets containing an "unknown substance." Additionally, the police discovered bottles of Valium and Zoloft to go with the Ambien Ledger was known to be taking for his insomnia.

We will not know for sure what was in Ledger's system until the toxicology reports come back. However, if he was mixing all those drugs...well, it might not have been a deliberate suicide, but he was flirting with death nevertheless.

Update: Law enforcement now says the rolled $20 bill found in Ledger's apartment did not contain drug residue.
