I agree.. I thought he was going to be a super star and just ended up being another child star who got all messed up being a child star. Very sad.. R.I.P.

From what it looks like, he never came clean even after so many rehabs. (Which to me shows that they dont really work)!

You may be correct. Check out this column:

http://www.nydailynews.com/lifestyle/health/2010/01/07/2010-01-07_why_dont_rehabs_work_for_drug_and_alcohol_addicts_like_casey_johnson_redmond_one.html

In fact, the sad truth is that rehab is followed by relapse about 80% of the time.

Pretty eye-opening stat. Plus the likelihood of getting clean after each subsequent rehab stint drops sharply from the previous. The more rehabs you go through, the least likely you will ever get clean.

Below is a really poignant piece by someone who interviewed Haim not that long ago.
