NEWEST UPDATES ACCORDING TO TMZ NYPD COPS FOUND A $20 DOLLAR ROLLED UP ON "A CERTAIN WAY" WITH A POWDERED SUBSTANCE ON IT. HEATH LEDGER'S AUTOPSY WAS INCONCLUSIVE. THE EXACT CAUSE OF HEATH'S DEATH WILL BE DETERMINED WHEN THE TOXICOLOGY RESULTS COME IN THE NEXT TWO WEEKS. LAW ENFORCEMENT SOURCES SAY THE $20 BILL WAS CLEAN AND DID NOT CONTAIN DRUG RESIDUE. MORE THAN 5 DRUGS WERE FOUND IN HEATH'S APARTMENT.
PARAMEDICS WHO FIRST ATTENDED TO HEATH LEDGER SAID THE SCENE LOOKED NORMAL AND IT DIDN'T APPEAR AS IF ANY ILLICIT DRUG USE OCCURED.
NYPD sources tell TMZ that nearly full pill bottles containing the
anti-anxiety medications Alprazolam (Xanax), Diazepam (Valium) and
Lorazepam (Ativan) were found in the apartment. The sleeping medication
Zoplicone (Lunesta) and the sedative Temazepam (Restoril) -- which is
used by people with "debilitating insomnia" -- were also found.
The New York Daily News provides a timeline and states the masseuse who found Heath Ledger's body called Mary Kate Olsen before calling 911.
"I think he might be dead. I'm calling 911!" masseuse Diane Lee
Wolozin finally shouted at the celebrity twin as the hard-partying
Ledger's corpse lay motionless.
"I already have people coming over," Olsen replied, according to police sources.
1 p.m.: Housekeeper Teresa Solomon, on her regularly
scheduled Tuesday stop at Ledger's home,hears him snoring while she's
changing a bathroom light bulb. She looks into the room.
2:45 p.m.: Wolozin arrives at the $24,000-a-month Broome St. apartment 15 minutes early for a 3p.m. appointment.
3 p.m.: Concerned when Ledger doesn't appear, Wolozin dials
his cell-phone number - and when he doesn't answer, she walks into his
bedroom several minutes later. He's lying facedown, with the covers
pulled up to his shoulders.
3:11 p.m.: Thinking the actor is asleep, Wolozin calls his
name while pulling the massage table from a closet. Wolozin then grabs
Ledger to shake him awake, but his body is cold to the touch.
3:12 p.m.: The frightened masseuse - who knew Olsen and
Ledger - takes Ledger's cell phone and hits the speed dial for Olsen in
California. Olsen instructs the masseuse to hold on, promising to send
her security guards.
3:26 p.m.: When Ledger doesn't respond to a second round of
shaking, Wolozin calls back to tell Olsen she is calling paramedics.
She dials 911, and the operator instructs her to perform CPR.
3:33 p.m.: Emergency workers and the Olsen security arrive
simultaneously. The medical workers move Ledger's body to the floor for
another round of CPR and a shot from a defibrillator. (source)
