Simon Monjack, the husband of the late actress Brittany Murphy, was found dead late Sunday in the Los Angeles home he once shared with his wife. He was 39.
Monjack’s body was discovered by Sharon Murphy, his mother-in-law, and is being reported as a possible heart attack, according to the Los Angeles coroner’s office. Los Angeles County Assistant chief Coroner Ed Winter said, “(Monjack) was discovered by Brittany’s mom as being unresponsive in the master bedroom of the Hollywood Hills home at about 9:40 p.m. Sunday.”
There were no signs of foul play or any type of physical injury. There were prescription medications found in the room but no indications that Monjack died of an overdose. An autopsy is planned for Tuesday, with the cause of death to be determined pending a toxicology report.
Murphy, best known for her roles in the feature films “Clueless” and “Girl Interrupted,” collapsed in her home and died on December 20th of last year at the age of 32. Her death was classified as accidental “but likely preventable” by the Los Angeles County coroner’s office. Murphy had pneumonia at the time of her death, and while the illness was cited as the primary cause of death, the autopsy also found "multiple drug intoxication" - all prescription medications. Police found many of the same medications by Monjack's bedside at the time of his collapse and death.
Do you think this is yet another Hollywood death linked to prescription medications?

Heath Ledger died from this if you remember. He was on multiple prescription drugs and not just from one country as he was on drugs prescribed for him in a different country as well. He was fighting symptoms of depression because when he took on a role, he literally became that character which is why Ledger was so exceptional an actor. However, many say when he took on the role of the Joker in the Dark Knight, his role did somethin...
Heath Ledger died from this if you remember. He was on multiple prescription drugs and not just from one country as he was on drugs prescribed for him in a different country as well. He was fighting symptoms of depression because when he took on a role, he literally became that character which is why Ledger was so exceptional an actor. However, many say when he took on the role of the Joker in the Dark Knight, his role did something to him and he was finding it difficult to cope with the character of the Joker who was seriously deranged and psychotic. Unable to sleep and dealing with other symptoms of health and well being, Ledgers doctors put him on different medications that ultimately caused his death.
I myself was under the care of a doctor who prescribed medications for me that should not be mixed but either she didn't care or felt that she knew more about the drugs than the people who manufactured them. End result was I lost everything I had fighting to keep my job and was literally forced on disability because the drugs ruined my health and the doctor should have known better.
What happened to Britney Murphy is something I have intimate knowledge of because todays pill pushers and pharmaceuticals are geared for one thing... profit. That's why the issue of health care reform was so important and because our leaders were focused on the wrong things and making secret deals excluding the very people who've made our health care system a complete disaster, I had no choice but to oppose it putting me at odds with people blindly supporting the need for health care reform over the need for doing it right as you can create reform that makes things worse as well as better and that's what the Obama health care plan will do... it's even almost identical to the Romney health care plan in Massachusetts which is a complete disaster and the fact these people signed the legislation into law with all of them admitting they didn't even know what it said was alarming.
Likewise, Simon Monjacks death will likely be overlooked or concealed but the fact he had basically the same exact drugs and died almost the exact same way as his wife only months after her passing speaks volumes as to the cause of his death regardless of what the autopsy results say being that similar cases in the past have been somewhat glossed over because Monjack wasn't as well known as his wife with most Americans. but if Brittney died as a result of accidental drug intoxication (also called drug poisoning because the drugs interact together in a persons system literally poisoning you), then how can people say the same about Monjack when his doctors know how his wife died and that he was on the identical or similar drugs as she was requiring he be better monitored or some of his prescriptions removed.
Accidental drug intoxication is a catch phrase used increasingly by doctors to help them in lawsuits where their failure to properly monitor their patients health and to address drug interaction or mixing in our systems poisoning us. This is another reason putting so many additional patients into the health care system will be an utter disaster because we don't have enough doctors as it is, they are working exceptionally long hours with some working upwards of 120 hours a week with a minimum of 60 to 80 hours and we expect that health care is going to "improve" under Obama's health care plan?
these two people provide the proof who is responsible for poor health care in this country and they're names will be added to the almost ONE MILLION accidental and easily preventable hospital related deaths that happen every year because the coroners report on Murphy states clearly her death was caused by prescription medication and that it was preventable... I doubt very seriously Monjacks name would not be added to that list as well if he were taking similar or identical drugs.
She broke a happy marriage & that's mean enough.
And when I look at her face all the bad things she has done that comes to my mind not the good ones.
It's my opinion if I hate her ,so if you don't give a damn,don't even bother trying to show me how good she is,because I don't see any goodness in her.
And I don't think, I believe that she is a house-wrecker.And I have so many experiences with people of this kind,that only the sight of them makes me want to see them dead.So it's fair enough for me if I hate her or want to see her dead.
So be a Angelina-worshipers, I don't care.But don't even bother rectifying me.Angelina Jolie is a super slut,doesn't matter if you consider Brad Pitt or not.
And I don't think she is beautiful,there are a lot of people with much better looks.
she looks outright ugly & scary to me.and I mean it when I say there are a lot of better looking people in this world.
She is nothing but another plastic pimp like you.
And I must also say you don't have the eye for real beauty.
And if you admire her so much,how many times you donated to her charity?
Miley Cyrus also runs a charity.Do you admire her too?Oh..may be you do.
But I run my local charity for underprivileged women without anyone's help.So why should I bother if Jolie is doing something?
And if you will donate it will be better,than admiring.Period.
When you adopt a village you take care of all the arrangements(food,medicines,c... etc) of the entire population of the village(which will be in hundreds or thousands).I think it's better than adopting one kid,giving him all the facilities and sometimes more than needed.If you distribute the money properly you can still give most of the benefit to an entire group of people.Sick and injured people included.
I won't bother mentioning names here name because they are not Hollywood celebs,so you won't be knowing them.
Yes.I meant underprivileged or deprived,mostly in rural areas.Sorry about my mistake.
And it includes women who have faced domestic violence or mental and sexual harassment from other people.We haven't settled 100s or 1000s of people yet ,so there is really nothing to brag about.These things require a lot of money and I'm not Anjelina Jolie.So I'm not rich enough to help all of them and adopt any children yet.
So just like you can't admire Miley,even-though she is doing good,I can't admire Angelina.Call it an ideology clash if you want,but by being associated with a lot of women,I don't see much in her that I can admire or make me want to respect her.She is doing a very good job in Africa,it's a good thing,but seriously I don't like her.
And you want names dumbo.Here it is :
Priyanka Chopra
Hrithik Roshan
Abhishekh Bachan
Vivek Obrai
The first three have adopted 110 villages.
The last all by himself 2 villages.
No dig-up all you can about these people,even you don't know them.
And unprivileged or underprivileged.It won't matter to me cause English is not my mother-tongue.So I tend to do mistakes in a language that is not my native.Another reason why you are have a weak personality.If you would have checked my profile you would have easily noticed that,I'm an Asian.So most of the things I know will be unknown to you.So I didn't give you any name.
But I did.I checked your prof.And all I got is you are a liar.You don't speak your mind,'cause you don't have one.
My charity is named as "Ashirvad" .If you are so confident,find out it's meaning and tell me. Which has so far settled 4 women and given them food,clothing and stuff.Helped a woman in jail get married.
And by lying to you I don't get a penny .Get that one thing right.
And one last thing bimbo if you had brain you would checked a bit about village adoption especially since I wasted so much time is describing that you.rather saying anything .You are nothing but a self conceited bitch.
And if you are not stupid then prove it.Did you even bother finding the names I gave you?No. And it's not because you don't care,it's because you can't prove me wrong after I gave you names of people & Ashirbad.
And why should I bother posting my image?That's another reason why you are brainless.I can download your picture anytime , and photoshop it to anything I want.So If I'm not posting my image,I'm being safe.and most of the people here have brain enough to do that.
That's what I was saying if you like her then that's your choice,I hate her that's my choice.Just Like I like Miley's songs.Even-though recently she has been acting like a slut.lol
And sorry for calling you so many names.I can really get scary when I'm telling the truth and someone says I'm lying.I can really turn into super-hulk.
Glad it's finished with peace & not by scratching eachother's eye out :D
