Tragic to die of AIDS, especially in this day and age where treatment is so much better.

This is honestly such a tragedy, especially after hearing what she had gone through. RIP.

This is sad. Her father said she was using drugs since 13, according to Wikipedia.

She was a Disney star around that time and it makes me really angry that a 13 year old could get addicted to drugs while working for the supposid happiest place on earth. I wish the original dealers could be found and held accountable. I'm sure they ruined a lot of other child star lives.

Did she even know she had it?

Dammit. I was so sure that now that we had treatments we were done reading headlines like these.

correction, complication of AIDS, not the aids itself. it is odd to die in today of it, since there so much treatment available, unless she was hiding the illness and refusing to treat hiv.

Oh she was Samantha Darko too??
