Mary Kate Olsen won't help Heath Ledger enquiry

A US law enforcement official says federal investigators want to question actress Mary Kate Olsen about how Heath Ledger got two painkillers that contributed to his overdose death.

But the official says the star is not talking. Olsen's lawyer has twice refused requests to have her sit down with investigators probing the death of Ledger.

The official confirmed a report that Olsen - a close friend of Ledger who learned about the 28-year-old Australian actor's death in a frantic phone call from a masseuse - wants a promise of immunity before she speaks to the Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA).

The activity demonstrates that federal authorities are still actively trying to find out how Ledger got some of the drugs that killed him.

DEA investigators suspect the painkillers oxycodone and hydrocodone found in his system were obtained with fake prescriptions or other illegal sources, the official said. Oxycodone is sold as OxyContin and hydrocodone as Vicodin.

The other drugs that resulted in what the medical examiner called "acute intoxication", including anti-anxiety and sleeping pills, were prescribed legally by doctors in California and Texas, the official said.

Authorities have obtained a subpoena that could force Olsen to appear before a grand jury if negotiations with her lawyer fail, the official said. Other potential witnesses all have answered questions voluntarily, including doctors, Ledger's ex-girlfriend Michelle Williams and anyone who was in his apartment around the time of his death, the official added.

Some friend, shame on her. I can't stand and never have the fucking Olsen twins for the shitty films and TV programmes they have inflicted on the public. Hell to the pair of 'em, irritate me no end (can't you tell ;) ).

She's working with her publicist and lawyers in order to not get herself in some sort of trouble for all of this, which she should likely not have anything to do with anyway. Some friend?

Would you sit before a grand jury getting grilled on something that doesn't concern you other than knowing a person?

You're sounding like a fucking piece of shit right now. Grow the fuck up and act like an adult, not a 14 year old with high school drama.

Fucks sake Ben, ease up. He's merely stating his opinion, and lets face it, you aren't one to hold back on your opinions either. There is absolutely no need to get personal, and frankly it doesn't reflect very well on you.

I think what the point is that Natural is making is that she should assist the investigation so it can do its job and find out if this was a tragic accident or something more (highly unlikely). If she has nothing to do with this, why worry about seeking immunity? And frankly yes, if one of my friends died in such a way, of course I'd be willing to "get grilled" by any jury.

Part of me can't blame her in the way that if she had anything to do with supplying drugs to Ledger, she'll get crucified by the public, and she has that whole branding thing to worry about. It would affect the money coming in. But if she knows something that could help the investigation, she should spill.

If you disagree with that Ben, fair enough mate. But to spout off in such a way at Natural is not exactly making you look like an adult either. So how about you start acting like an adult as you suggest Natural does, and make your argument without acting like an arse and getting all personal. I don't often / always agree with what you say, but usually at least you make your point well. Shame that wasn't the case here.

Case is closed anyway. Chances are she did know more than she let on but I doubt they would have closed the case so quickly if she had ANYTHING to do with it.

Let's keep the tone civil everyone. No reason for insults.
