Sad. I work in a video store and had a couple customers actually tell me about this. I'm completely stunned. He was one of my favourite actors in a medium I lose respect for by the day.
My guess is it was an accident. He'd told a few interviewers he'd had problems sleeping since his work on both the Dark Knight and I'm Not There -- he actually said two Ambien only let him sleep for an hour. Being four years younger and Mr. Ledger and no more responsible when it comes to pills, my first instinct would be to double the dose.. I can easily see him making the same mistake.
