Mindy McCready has been found dead after reportedly taking her own life. She committed suicide on the porch of her Arkansas house.

This video shows McCready giving her final interview, a full and frank discussion of all the troubles she had endured in her life up to the time of the interview a year ago.

McCready killed herself just a month after her boyfriend died in a suspected suicide. She apparently shot her dog before turning the gun on herself.

McCready had a troubled life, with drug and alcohol problems, a porn tape, several arrests, and a number of suicide bids. This one was sadly successful, and McCready leaves behind two sons, one aged six years old, one aged just 10 months old.
