I can't believe that on the heels of sharing my Rizzoli & Isles fascination, they lost one of their actors. Lee Thompson Young, age 29, who played Barry Frost, was found deceased in his Los Angeles home on Monday (yesterday). The tabloids are reporting that he died of a self-inflicted gun shot. I can't even begin to comment on how sad this is.
Lee Thompson Young was in the very first book, The Surgeon, appearing even before Dr. Maura Isles' character. Barry's character was cute and funny, intelligent and gregarious. It has also been reported that the filming of Rizzoli and Isles has been temporarily suspended. I'm not sure how this will effect the show going forward. However, I am sure everyone on set is as deeply saddened as we are. My heart and prayers are with each of them.
Rest in peace, Lee Thompson Young. You will be missed.
