The Drugs Didn't Kill Corey Haim...that day

In an article in the Toronto Star today it says that the actor died of pneumonia and an enlarged heart and other health concerns and that the over the counter drugs in his system played little role in his death.

Ummm..I know it may be semantics, but don’t the years of drug abuse and generally not taking care of himself count towards his death and, by extension, THE DRUGS CAUSED HIS DEATH?  It’s common knowledge that people who are addicted to drugs usually don’t take care of themselves, they don’t eat, don’t sleep, don’t wash etc.  After years of drug abuse I’m certain that Mr Haim’s health was compromised, and just because he didn’t have the drugs in his system today, doesn’t mean they didn’t play a role in his death.

The coroner says he died of pneumonia, arteriosclerosis and an enlarged heart.

In my mind, there is no doubt that the killer of one of the “Coreys” was CONTINUED DRUG ABUSE.
