Witney Houston dead. Sad end for a talented performer blighted by self abuse

Sadly the troubled, undoubtedly talented, singer and some time actor Witney Houston has died in the US aged 48.  The cause of her death is not yet known but her troubles with drink and drug abuse are widely known and it is a sadly premature end to a glittering career.   Illegal drugs like alcohol and prescription drugs in the hands of an unhappy person can be  unfortunately used to blot out life's troubles. Witney is reported to have in the past used Crack cocaine and this can have a devastating impact on health and functionality far greater than club drugs like Ecstasy generally do and there is no doubt in my mind they should not be both classed criminally Cat A.  A sad loss. The world will mourn a little today.  Bye Witney
