was it the death of Jonathan Winters that pushed Robin Williams to kill himself?

Jonathan Winters died last year.

its clear they were very close.

so i wonder if he could not cope with his death.

The flutter of a butterfly's wings in Hong Kong caused the death of Robin Williams ...

Maybe it was the death of Marilyn Monroe that drove him to it.

Not implausible.
Winters was his idol.
Williams watched Winters slowly disintegrate over the decades.
Winters and Williams both genius.
Similar issues I believe...

However,
New rehab in last 4 weeks.
Cold turkey from drugs, alcohol
and on meds again
home alone and countless life issues we'll never know about. Hopefully.

At 63 he was rocking in the biz but...maybe his hole inside was growing a bit wider with age.

I don't think he was pining away for Winters. At least I hope not.

New sheriff's report says small pocket knife and superficial wounds besides the belt as possible causes. That's it. Never leave a comedian alone with a belt.

Anyway I agree with Billy Crystal.
"No words."
