Coke Didn’t Kill Billy Mays. Kaboom!
October 15th, 2009 by Wendie
We were all surprised when the media reports claimed that cocaine contributed to Billy Mays’ death. I couldn’t picture Mays as a dude with some big drug problem (though he was a little hyper) and was shocked when the coroner’s office cited it as a factor in his passing.
Well, there’s new news today. As it turns out, the cocaine wasn’t used on the day of his death and didn’t cause him to die. According to the medical examiner, Mays was an occasional cocaine user and didn’t use the drug in a chronic and life-threatening quantity. This basically backs up Mays family’s claims.
I’m not really sure what the message is here: Use cocaine just once in a while and it won’t kill you. Enjoy! Sniff …

How about the message that releasing preliminary information may damage your reputation after death.
Would have been fun to blow some lines with Billy and then maybe make out a little, LOL!!!
You just wanna feel that beard all over your face.
Is no-one really going to comment on how disturbing this picture of him is? Look at that mug! & what about that thumb?
It’s worth pointing out — which the TMZ article does not — that these are the conclusions of a second autopsy performed by medical staff hired Mays’ wife & family, who were adamant about proving that Mays was not a coke head…
