Chalk me up as another callous ass. IMO, he was a pretty damn good actor and had a bright future and threw it all away...not to mention leaving his daughter fatherless. From what I've read, there were sleeping pills nearby, which would suggest suicide to me (unless people have started taking them for kicks). Perhaps I'm jumping the gun since there won't be a definitive answer until the autopsy, but I'm not feeling sympathy for him either.
