    <div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>NEW YORK - Federal investigators want to question Mary-Kate Olsen about how Heath Ledger got two powerful painkillers that contributed to his accidental overdose death, but she's refusing to talk without immunity, a law enforcement official said Monday.


    Olsen's lawyer has twice refused requests for her to speak with investigators, said the official, who spoke on condition of anonymity because the investigation was ongoing. The lawyer, Michael C. Miller, said the "Full House" actress has nothing to do with the drugs, and has already told the government everything she knows.

    "We have provided the government with relevant information including facts in the chronology of events surrounding Mr. Ledger's death," Miller said in a statement Monday, "and the fact that Ms. Olsen does not know the source of the drugs Mr. Ledger consumed."

    The official confirmed a report that Olsen wants a promise of immunity from prosecution before speaking to the Drug Enforcement Administration. Olsen was a close friend of Ledger's, and was the first person called by a masseuse who found the 28-year-old "Dark Knight" actor's lifeless body in his Manhattan apartment.</div>

    I wanna know what she's hiding.

    Did she know he was gonna kill himself, and simply didn't stop him?

    Or does she just want attention?

    I can't see how she would know that he was going to kill himself since Ledger didn't know he was going to kill himself. It was an accidental suicide. There have been no indications that he killed himself on purpose.

    I'm not sure what shes hiding either but I'm guessing its got more to do with her own drug use. Isn't Mary-Kate the Olsen twin who had all kinds of drug problems?

    Well, I'm actually saying...what if she knew that it actually wasn't an accidental suicide? Or what if it was her drugs? [​IMG]

    Haha idk, she prolly just wants attention

    Attention over such a sensitive matter is unnecessary.

    She probably gave him the drugs, or gave him the number of a dealer that she uses.

    Yes, I heard she gave him some prescription drugs and just didn't want to get in trouble with the Cops.

    If she's the one that had all those drug/anorexia problems, it might be just her being cautious about probation or something.

    What was Ledge doing with Mary Kate? I'm sure he wanted to do his own like run of "Full House"!
