The death of Robert F Kennedy's 22-year-old granddaughter Saoirse Kennedy Hill was caused by an accidental overdose.

A death certificate released on Friday revealed that Saoirse was found unresponsive at the Kennedy Compound back on August 1 due to a fatal mixture of prescription medications, methadone and alcohol.

Among the prescription drugs found in her system were diazepam and nordiazepam (first marketed as Valium), fluoxetine (Prozac) and norfluoxetine (the anti-depressant Luoxetine).

Her death came just one month before she was set to start her senior year at Boston College.

Were all of these drugs she had been prescribed?

She was prescribed all of these in her early 20s at the same time?

If she was legitimately prescribed all of these meds simultaneously, lord knows what issues she had...

Uh ... yeah. Half a dozen different downers and mood-altering drugs, plus methadone and alcohol. She was a walking pharmacy who just happened to take 40 times the lethal limit of her mind cocktail.

Big pharma is doing what evolution has failed to do: cleaning that gene pool.

I didn’t think it needed the /s tab. It was pretty clear.

Right. Not her responsibility at all.

You think patients always are honest with us about what meds and street drugs they are taking?

The Kennedy family “curse” is nothing supernatural. Instead it’s a profound, learned recklessness inherited from grandpa Joe who became so politically powerful that ordinary human-made law, up to and including laws against murder, didn’t apply to him and his family, an immunity that continues until this day. That immunity caused his offspring and their offspring to believe they were equally immune to the laws of nature, including physics, chemistry, medicine, and aerodynamics. Unfortunately for the Kennedys, but fortunately for the rest of us, those laws have ruthless, self-executing, unappealable penalties, penalties the Kennedys continue to suffer.

Never said why she was on methadone. FDA Black Warning for methadone:
Benzodiazepine drug interaction warning: Taking methadone together with drugs that affect the nervous system, or drugs called benzodiazepines, may cause severe drowsiness, breathing problems, coma, or death. Benzodiazepine drugs such as Valium and methadone don’t mix with alcohol. Very sad.

Isn’t methadone a drug to wean people off of heroin?

All of these drugs are going to be free when Bolshies take over health care.

My god these people are so pathetic and a total train wreck. That “compound” needs to be turned into a high security mental hospital and locking every Kennedy spawn in for eternity.

Yes, you probably did. I tell you why: there are plenty of folks here who blame doctors for everything drug-related. Tucker Carlson runs with this every night as does Sean Hannity on his radio show. Good to know you were being sarcastic.

How dumb and weak do you have to be not to be able to survive until 23 years of age?

Except I watched these doctors give my niece meds until she was going out of her mind. My sister in law hopped on a plane after talking to another daughter and fired the doctor. My niece had become an experiment. And there are plenty others.
