DON SIMPSON: 1944-1996Don Simpson, one of Hollywood’s most renowned producers (Top Gun, Flashdance, Beverly Hills Cop and The Rock) was a tragic example of psychiatric irresponsibility. He was prescribed psychiatric drugs to withdraw him from his illicit drug use—one addictive chemical simply replaced by another. On January 19, 1996, Simpson was found dead of a drug overdose. Police found 80 bottles of prescription drugs in his house. An autopsy determined that a cocktail of cocaine and prescribed stimulants, antidepressants, sedatives and tranquilizers had caused heart failure and death. |
