Jonathan Brandis-Found Dead

[Mr_Vindictive]

Not much info on this so far.  Dunno if it was suicide or homicide yet.

For those of you who don't know, Branids was on Seaquest, Stephen King's 'IT', Ladybugs, Neverending Story 2, Sidekicks, and Outside Providence.

Will post more as I learn more.

That sucks....

I remember liking most of the films he was in.

Hadn't seen much of him in any films the last few years.

They did not confirm it but they think it might be suicide from his use of Accutane.
I wondered what it was and from this website it seems to be a drug for treating acne.

It is an acne medication linked to teen suicide. It carries a bunch of warnings and a questionaire  about depression and such that the doctor is supposed to give you.

I think that's very sad... It's unfortunate that he should have to meet his end that way. I also enjoyed watching him on T.V. and in films. It just goes to show you how short and unpredictable life ca be.
