Los Angeles, Apr 7 (THAINDIAN NEWS) Actor Corey Haim had managed to get access to around 553 prescription pills, just 2 months before he died of a suspected drug overdose. The California Attorney General Jerry Brown made this shocking disclosure on Tuesday. He also revealed that Corey Haim had managed to bag all these medications through 7 different doctors and 7 pharmacies. He also added that the medications included Valium, Vicodin, Xanax and Soma. It has also been learnt that Corey Haim also used an alias to obtain the medications at least once.

Jerry Brown also added that he doesn’t think so that the doctors were aware that the actor Corey Haim was double-crossing them, and getting prescription drugs through multiple sources. He also added that the investigators in the Corey Haim death case have managed to verify that Haim obtained more than 550 pills in 2010 itself, but all the same they also managed to find out that thousands of pills had already being obtained on his name prior to this, too.

“We think it illustrates a problem that is more widespread,” Brown said. He is referring to the statewide phenomenon in which both the doctors and patients abuse the system to get the prescription pills from multiple sources. His office has already investigated 200 such cases so far.
