Reply to comment by mr_math24 in Glee star Jenna Ushkowitz warns viewers over new docuseries Price of Glee by Collective1985

Cory had been using drugs since age 13, well before even being cast. And I've never heard of a show putting a curse on someone to make them want to fuck kids and kill themselves as a result of that and prison time they didn't want to serve.

Naya was the one you can chalk up to bad luck but there were also some precautions she did not take which could have prevented it.

Lol are you being serious or really this thick? No, one thinks the show iterally cursed anyone, it's just pointing out how awful a lot of the casts lives ended.

No one thought the Madden video games were literally curing the athletes. People just pointed out how bad stuff happened to the cover stars pretty frequently.

She had alcohol and multiple drugs in her system at time of death.

Just traces of it. It is not like she was drunk or high on drugs. A completely clean person without a life vest likely would have drowned, too. There were dangerous currents in that lake.

>It revealed that the 33-year-old Rivera had previous problems with vertigo, had a recent sinus infection, and had a small amount of prescribed amphetamines in her system, but did not identify physical conditions or drugs as factors in her death.

>Toxicology tests also showed she had small, therapeutic amounts of the anti-anxiety drug diazepam and the appetite suppressant phentermine in her system.

>The autopsy report included the medical examiner’s earlier determination that the drowning was accidental and added the new information that she had a low level of amphetamine and diazepam, caffeine and a blood-alcohol level of 0.016%.

>The autopsy did not say whether the medication and alcohol played a role in her death. Her blood-alcohol level was five times lower than the legal limit for drunken driving in California, 0.08%.
