In a sad conclusion to a tragic life, the Los Angeles County Coroner confirmed that actor Brad Renfro died from an accidental overdose of heroin.
The cause of death was ruled "acute heroin/morphine intoxication," and the drugs were injected, according to the coroner's office. "The final manner of death has been ruled an accident," the coroner reported. The 25-year-old former child actor was found dead in his L.A. home on January 15.
TMZ was at a court hearing last August when Renfro told a judge he was trying to get his life back together and get clean. He had been scheduled to return to court on February 27 for a status check.

Sad, he just went to sleep and that was that. Heroin is whack!
why do they call overdose an accident? It seems like suicide to me.
God rest his young soul. I do not understand how heroine has made such a swift and horrific comeback. And way to show respect to the dead, Richard Pierce. God forbid if you or any of your family or friends end up addicted to this or any other dangerous drug. Shame on you.
He probably had been clean for quite some time when he OD'ed. People die when they relapse because they try to pick up where they left off and the results are often fatal.
I laugh at other's misfortunes:
Hey Carlos........F**K OFF!!
Does anyone ever intentionally overdose, other than wanting to commit suicide?
Doper, doper , doper ,doper , well what we got here is .... guess what kiddies another dead doper , BTW who's next on the dead doper list ? I cant feel sorry for these people because with all thats out about drugs no one can claim ignorance
Claro que las drogas matan, todos los de "Hollywood" son unos adictos.
Some of you are really closed minded idiots! Do you really think a person chooses to be an addict?? Sad
