Brad's last tattoo:

Brad Renfro died this week at the age of 25. The L.A. County Coroner tells TMZ Brad had a freshly inked tattoo across his back, that read, "F*CK ALL Y'ALL (asterisk added). Possibly a clue to Brad's dark mood in the final days.

Renfro got the tattoo on Sunday. His body was found Tuesday.

Southern to the very end!

Southern to the very end!

Yeah, sounds like something I'd do if I were going to commit suicide! Actually that saying, and probably worse... I'd probably have a ps up under my tattoo naming certain individuals whom I blamed more so than others.

Is the word out on whether he did ( suicide) or not yet?

I have not heard, WR, but I'm still thinking accidental OD....of course, sometimes it's hard to tell the difference....

Yeah I knew about the drug problems from awhile back...
though maybe from this tattoo it was no "accidental" overdose....either way I feel sad and sick...I know both you and I have battled drug problems...sometimes it seems like there is no way out...
I want to think if he did suffer an overdose he did so accidentally and didn't know what was coming...I sincerely hope he didn't do it (in case of overdose) intentionally.

I hear you that it might have been a suicide note. But it also might have been a Screw You to all the people in recovery (by all accounts he was attending meetings and working on staying clean) on his way to a bender that wound up in suicide.

How sad ! Brandis and Renfro were such talented actors. It is tragic how they could not handle fame and were swept up in addictions.

May they both rest in peace.

Celebrity baby blog is reporting Brad had a son know one knew about. Here is his obituary where it mentions his son. This makes it even worse, now this poor baby has to grow up without his father.

From perezhilton:

The toxicology results are in!

Sad.
The cause of death was "acute heroin/morphine intoxication," and the drugs were injected, according to the coroner's office.
The death was ruled an accident.


Rest in peace, Brad.
