We will never know for sure what happened, but how did she Od on the meds if he was responsible for dispensing them? It could be a coincidence that he was obsessed w/ her & she just HAPPENED to say she was leaving him that nite, & that he called NYC saying "I killed my baby" repeatedly, instead of calling 911 locally, but there are a LOT of coincidences is all I am saying. I'm a psychologist, & he was clearly passive aggressive. No one would have asked questions then any more than now.

@jarileigh how do u know so much about michael post's personality? ('"passive agressive," etc.) - there's not that much personal info. available about him. your assertions that he "killed" Edie (i've been reading them for months in my email) are ludicrous.

[siouxie921]

Could watch her gorgeous face all day. See how manic she is - she can't stop moving.

Also, see the scar between her black as night eyebrows? It was from one of her bad car accidents. She also had a rather prominent horizontal scar across one of her knees from another car accident. What's so cool is that she never bothered to cover them up.

[desertshore]

she seems almost to wear them as badges.

[Moniqueee15]

She's so beautiful.

&Yeah she's totally fucked up.

You could tell.

[siouxie921]

Gee, ya think? This is the joint: Edie's buzzing (on speed), and you see in same film, she's drinking cough medicine (w/ codeine) & smoking weed or hash to take off the edge, ya dig?

Has anyone else ever looked so drop dead gorgeous while getting totally fucked up?

[MowgliX]

@siouxie921 Right, that scar on her forehead was a memory from a bad car crash in Santa Barbara, California, in 1964. There was also some faint scars on the left side of her face, below the eye, but they might have healed. Edie was driving, and she and another young woman were injured really badly. Edie had problems before this happened, of course, but actually, a traumatic head injury can cause really serious damage to the brain.

@desertshore He was a passive person by all accounts including his own. He felt used by her & was angry about it. She casually told someone she wouldn't be married that much longer(nite she died), he was obsessed w/her (his words) & said he could not live w/out her, yet was angry w/her in many ways(his words). So being passive in a classical codependent way & then getting angry about it makes him passive agressive, in his own words.

[jarileigh]

@desertshore It may not be true, but it isn't ludicrous, I don't have anything against the man, I just noticed the evidence piling up in that direction, if she died of "acute" barbituate intoxication, & he was dispensing it, then at the very least he knew exactly how much she took, if it was more or less than usual, & he was aware of the amount of alcohol consumption so how did she do nothing out of the ordinary for her that night & die? Years of anorexia? At the least it isn't the whole story.

@jarileigh ewww

[PELICAN2K]

first song is "Shirelles - Tonight's the night".

you're welcome

[sauciesedgwick]

What's the music in this?

[jarileigh]

I think he could have killed her, there is quite a bit of info on Michael Post if you will read the books on Edie, it isn't that difficult to discern that he was passive agressive, and the rest is absolute fact. He did everything I said he did, & by his own admission & other people's statements.

[jarileigh]

The fact that he says repeatedly that he can't live w/out her, & she just happened to say she was going to leave him THAT night is just the start. He took care of her & felt used, by his own admission. He felt "She's going to dump me after I've done ALL this for her?". He was passive-aggressive, being mostly passive, people thought of him as a nice, passive guy. But if u look carefully, it may be that he would have rathered her dead than have her leave him. He was obsessed with her.
