NEW YORK (AP) Federal prosecutors have decided not to pursue a criminal case into how Heath Ledger obtained the powerful painkillers that contributed to his overdose death this year, a law enforcement official said Wednesday.

Prosecutors in the U.S. attorney's office in Manhattan had been overseeing a Drug Enforcement Administration probe into whether the painkillers found in Ledger's system were obtained illegally. But the prosecutors have bowed out "because they don't believe there's a viable target," said the official, who spoke on condition of anonymity because no charges have been filed.

Because of the fact that Olsen demanded immunity if she was to talk, taht leads me to believe she had something to do with his death. I don't think the case should be dropped.

She might do it. Maybe they don't want to put an Olsen girl in jail. Maybe they figured she gave them the drugs. I can understand not wanting to put her in jail. Giving him drugs was wrong, if she or anybody else did, but it was his responsibility not to take so many drugs at once.

I agree that it was his decision whether or not to take them. But I do think they should have investigated further. I hate it when the let celebrities slide just b/c they're celebrities. I'm not saying Olsen had anything to do with it but they should have at least investigated enough to rule her out.

Oh and by the way I'm back from TN. Pretty good trip if not a little to short. Just got in a half hour ago. Need to catch up on some things then I'll try and see what else I missed on here.

Still, her actions make me suspicious of her. I'd like to know the whole story, but it looks like I never will.
