46 STARS WHO PASSED AWAY AND NO ONE SAID A WORD

Lee Thompson Young

Lee Thompson Young was known for his leading teenage role in the Disney Channel T.V. series The Famous Jett Jackson and Rizzoli & Isles police. Young also enjoyed writing and wrote the screenplay for a short film.

In August 2013, when Young didn’t show up for filming an episode of Rizzoli & Isles, the police were called to check on him. However, they found him dead in his apartment. His manager later confirmed that he had taken his own life. Young was treated for bipolar disorder and had been suffering from depression before his death. To remove the stigma around mental illness, his family launched the Lee Thompson Young Foundation.
