Haim: 550 Pills in 3 Months

Apparently looking to use the death of Canadian actor Corey Haim to send a strong message about prescription drug abuse, California’s Attorney General Jerry Brown revealed at Haim had obtained more than 550 prescription pills in the three months before he died on March 10.

Brown said Haim obtained the medications, which included Valium and Soma, through seven different doctors, according to a CBC.ca report. The doctors appeared to have been duped, Brown added, and he said Haim also used emergency rooms to get such drugs, in addition to the seven doctors and pharmacies he allegedly used.

All this comes before the final autopsy has even concluded, because toxicology reports have yet to be revealed. The initial autopsy showed an enlarged heart, pneumonia and water in his lungs.
