Huge tragedy. I hope his kids are able to keep their lives private.

This story still makes me sad af.

I know you can’t really blame him for what happened but fuck Andy Dick.

According to google he gave Hartmans wife, a recovering addict, cocaine at a party and she relapsed and then did the murder suicide

Considering he's proud to have a body count and was also partially responsible for David Strickland's death less than a year later, I'm okay with wishing Andy the absolute worst
