Potential Lawsuit Claims Alleged Heath Ledger Cocaine Video Was A Set-Up

“The photogs had befriended Heath and invited him up to…party, never disclosing their true intentions. As Heath allegedly did coke, the photogs secretly videotaped the whole thing. When Heath realized what was happening, he went ballistic.”

In light of rumors that scenes from The Dark Knight may be cut or altered due to screener audiences’ discomfort while watching overly dark Ledger moments, coupled with the fact that Michelle Williams is due to promote her upcoming film Deception later this month, a lawsuit claiming Ledger’s innocence is well-timed. So it’s difficult to figure out if Jane Doe is acting out of good will in order to clean the late actor’s record, or if she’s simply a scorned ex looking to damage the rep of her former boyfriend’s agency. Either way, the video does little to convince us that Ledger was actually using drugs the night he lost out on a SAG award for Brokeback Mountain in 2006. If the suit does see the light of day, we can at least take comfort in the plausibility that Ledger was simply blowing off steam with a tail, rather than rails, on that night.
