And this is
the coroner's report.

1:34:06
It describes the cause of death
as doxepin intoxication

1:34:10
which basically means
that Arnold took

1:34:12
a massive overdose
of antidepressants.

1:34:17
I took a deep breath
and I said

1:34:19
"It's over, David.
1:34:20
He's out of his misery.
1:34:22
It's over. "
1:34:24
I thought it was a blessing
1:34:25
because the guilt
he was carrying

1:34:27
he was so unhappy.
1:34:31
He was out
of his misery.

1:34:35
The rest of the family wasn't
1:34:36
but he was.
1:34:38
I found it a blessing.
1:34:41
Let me entertain you
1:34:48
Let me make you smile.
1:34:53
It's unbelievably difficult.
1:34:55
I have to read
these horrible letters

1:34:56
about my brother being
almost killed in prison.

1:34:59
My friends call me,
I'm crying.

1:35:01
"Why are you crying?"
I can't tell them.

1:35:04
None of the people
that do what I do

1:35:05
know about this story.
1:35:07
Just the intimation
of something like this

1:35:10
can ruin someone's career.
1:35:13
And I'm always afraid
that's going to happen.

1:35:15
So let me entertain you
1:35:21
And we'll have
a real good time

1:35:34
I feel I will never
really know the truth.

1:35:39
But the one truthful thing
1:35:42
or the honest thing we know
1:35:45
Howard loved his brother.
1:35:47
Howard loved his family.
1:35:49
Loves his family.
1:35:54
And I believed him
when he said

1:35:55
he didn't do
those terrible things.

1:35:58
I believed him.
