Worth pondering, her death was certainly strange.
Back in those days, late ‘50s to mid ‘60s, a lot of people used sleeping pills with quite a few fatalities; but, it makes you wonder all the same.

“On November 8, 1965, Kilgallen was found dead on the third floor of her five-story Manhattan townhouse. Her death was determined to be caused by a fatal combination of alcohol and barbiturates; the initial autopsy ruled out a heart attack.[31] At the time of her death, Kilgallen and Richard Kollmar had been married for 25 years, and they had three children.[32]”
— cause of death: Sounds pretty reasonable to me.
