16 Jan 08 Brad Renfro dead at 25


July 25, 1982 – January 15, 2008

From the LA Times:

Renfo’s body was found in his Los Angeles apartment, in the 1000 block of South Ogden Drive, by his girlfriend, authorities said. Renfro was declared dead by paramedics at 9 a.m., according to coroner’s spokesman Ed Winter.

“There is no suspicion of foul play,” LAPD Lt. David Evans said.

Renfro’s former attorney, Blair Berk said Tuesday: “Brad was a really gifted young man. It is a tragedy all the way around.”

You know I liked Renfro. His last few appearances were stinkers (The Jacket, 10th & Wolf) but he was a cool actor. I think he could have had a decent career. Perhaps never a leading role but no doubt steady work. Too bad the Hollywood machine of drugs and addiction got to him like so many others.
