SAN JOSE, Calif. (AP) -- An autopsy has found that artist Thomas Kinkade's death was caused by an accidental overdose of alcohol and prescription tranquilizers.
NBC Bay Area News reported Monday (( http://bit.ly/Jsgrvg) ) that the Santa Clara County medical examiner concluded that the self-described "Painter of Light" stopped breathing at his Northern California home on April 6 from a combination of alcohol and Valium.

I smell a cover-up. I think this guy Kinkade knew too much about Breibart.

The most famous work!

It's a joke. There is a nearby thread about Breibart and how the witness to his death has now gone missing. Couple that with with death of a coroner who may have examined Breibart's body -- people sense that anyone who knows too much about Breibart is in danger.
I made a gratuitous and silly leap to include Kinkade in that company, on no basis whatsoever.

Just as suspected. The night before his demise, Mr Kinkade was seen painting the town.

Alcohol and benzos have assisted many a good man to his date with the Lord. Most likely accidental.
To: Free ThinkerNY
His BAC is not specified but must have been sky high.
As for his art, it may have been kitshy but it turned a buck.

He had an earlier brush with death, didn’t he?
To: Revolting cat!
No. Perhaps he had a stroke.
To: Free ThinkerNY
I liked Kinkaids paintings a lot, I wish I had one.
RIP Thomas. You should have known better than to mix valium and booze.
To: Revolting cat!
‘painting the town’ — you are VERY bad.
