DJ AM’s Death = Accidental Drug Overdose
DJ AM’s death was an accidental drug overdose, according to the New York City medical examiner’s office.
The lethal cocktail of drugs in the 36-year-old included cocaine, oxycodone, hydrocodone (Vicodin), Ativan, Klonopin, Xanax, Benadryl and Levamisole (a drug used to cut cocaine with).
AM, whose real name was Adam Goldstein, and Blink 182’s Travis Barker had been coping with being the only survivors of a small plane crash in South Carolina last September.

How is it accidental when he had a cocktail of drugs in his system and FIVE Oxycotin pills in his stomach and another lodged in his throat?
How can that be when Anna Nicole Smith had as many drugs and
Howard K Stern and her therapist are being charged with over
prescribing drugs to her.. The same with Michael Jackson Dr. Murray
did not intend to kill Michael accidental over dose too.. isn’t that what
the cororner said… For that many drugs in his system he would of
known how many he was taking this way too many drugs..
I agree with everyone above, this sh_it wasnt accidental. if it were an accident it would be cuz u didnt know certain drugs didnt mix (ex. for 2 prescriptions, not 8)…
**You intentionally have to down 8 types of meds! Enough with the political correctness fools, suicide is suicide!
I think he had survivors guilt. I wish he’d been in some kind of counseling
Definitely not accidental. It was simply a self-induced drug OD.
If you believe it was accidental, I have some property I would like to sell you.
If this is the kind of bullshit people are believing these days, I might need to try to accidentally rob a bank.
I agree. How in the f$#%^ing world is that kind of cocktail ‘accidental’?
accidental?!? when you take drugs.. nothing that happens from it is an accident. if he would have accidentally taken drugs and then died then yes. but he didn’t accidentally take drugs so it wasn’t an accidental overdose. he killed himself cause he was stupid, and weak.
RIP
he accidentally had all these things….while i accidentally run a red light
To me he was a hero for surviving that awful plane crash
I think I remember reading a report that said the police had difficulty accessing the apartment becasue he had barricaded the doors. So how can thispossibly be ruled accidental death.
@I n F a m o u s l y C o o l:
ITA!!!!
rip
Such a tragic way to die. He was clearly trying to cope with his pain.
So what exactly is an “accidental” overdose?
I want to make sure I understand yet another of modern society’s colorful euphemisms in order to make things easy on the rest of us.
“A toxicology report found traces of the drugs used in the painkillers OxyContin and Vicodin and sedatives Ativan, Klonopin and Xanax. It also found levamisole, a cancer treatment drug that is also used to cut cocaine”
Now to make sure I understand this all:A person loads their body with a series of illegal substances, some of them illegal like cocaine and others “illegally prescribed”, but all not supposed to be in that persons possession in the first place. Said individual dies as a consequence of these premeditated thoughts and acts to ingest these substances.
The police rule it an “accident”. No, I will have to disagree with this one. His acting like an idiot and moron were pretty much done on purpose. Nothing “accidental” here.
I would rule this “death by stupidity” but since we have no such description how about we simply say another degenerate loser who nobody would ever want their children looking up to and emulating has done the world a favor and moved on ridding us of their potential for stupidity.
I’m sure all of you DJ AM sympathizers would be oh so forgiving had this man gotten into a car in his extremely intoxicated condition and ran over an innocent human being, especially a child.
Unless of course it was a child running naked across Hollywood Blvd trying to escape the grasp of being pursued by Roman Polanski; DJ AM could have struck and killed this child and a collective “SIGH” would have been heard across greater Southern L.A. and even one person stating “at least there’s no witness this time around”. At this point DJ AM would have been sent off to Betty Ford for a stint of forgiveness and self-cleansing.
I wonder how much did the family pay for the M.E. to say that. This was suicide. He was literally popping pills til his last breath ( an undissolved pill was found in his mouth) plus he blocked the door so no one could get in. accidental death yeah right.
“The lethal cocktail of drugs in the 36-year-old included cocaine, oxycodone, hydrocodone (Vicodin), Ativan, Klonopin, Xanax, Benadryl and Levamisole (a drug used to cut cocaine with)”………. wow and this is called ACCIDENT ? wow people have to be really dumb to think that this is an accident. We can only call that accident if DJ AM was stupid enough to think he wouldn’t die from this cocktail… well i guess he was.
So sad, rest in peace
Accidental MY ****! A junkie is a junkie - no matter how famous you are!
Calling a spade a spade! I wonder what kind of overdose warrants an “intentional overdose” - nice PR spin!
I TOTALLY agree w/ everyone above. When I read this, all I could say was WTF. How the HECK is this an “accidental” overdose. Clearly he committed suicide. Call a spade a spade, my goodness. Whomever put out that report should be fired. So because he was “well known” they cover up the fact that he committed suicide. It’s a common thing in society!! Makes no sense whatsoever. Stupid!
dont mean 2 sound like an a-hole
but there is no way that was accidental….
all those drugs, accidental overdose is if u 2-3 things together not like half a dozen…
accidental?? please..
THIS IS NO ACCIDENT! medical examiner just said it was to probably make the family deal with it better! COME ON ! A DOCTOR DOESN’T PRESCRIBE THAT MANY SEDATIVES( ANTI ANXIETY MEDS) HE HAD XANAX,ATIVAN, KLONOPIN - A DOCTOR ONLY PRESCRIBES ONE OF THESE NEUROCOTICS! ALSO, HAD OXYCOTIN & VICODIN AS PAIN KILLERS! DOCTOR WOULD PRESCRIBE ONE KIND! THAN JUST ADD COCAINE! MY BF OVERDOSED ON JUST VICODIN & ALCOHOL! OMG! HE HAD LIKE EVERY PAIN KILLER & SEDATIVE IN HIS SYSTEM! OXYCOTIN IS SO POWERFUL & JUST A LITTLE WILL MESS YOU UP! tHIS WAS NO ACCIDENT! WHO WAS HIS DOCTOR? IF THE DOCTOR DIDN’T PRESCRIBE ALL THESE THAN HE WAS BUYING THEM OFF THE STREETS! OR DOCTOR HOPPING!
@kara: YEAH! he had sooo many drugs in his system! no way an accident! any of these drugs by themselves will kill you! oxycotin is such a powerful pain killer! many people OD & die with just this! Adam had a suicide cocktail for sure! It’s gross to hear all of the drugs he was on! dude was really a druggy!
