Although friends of Hawthorne Height’s guitarist Casey Calvert originally claimed his death last month stemmed from use of an asthma inhaler, a toxicology report found different results.
Calvert, 25, was found on his band’s tour bus near the 9:30 club in Northwest Washington on Nov. 24 before he was to perform a concert. His death was an accident caused by the combined effects of opiates and the antidepressant citalopram and the anti-anxiety medication clonozepam, according to the medical examiner’s office.
Bummer, huh?

Yeah, I don’t know who they are either but that’s pretty sad.
Although, how is it that nobody knows how their medications will effect them if they take them with other drugs?
