McCready, who burst onto the music scene in 1996 with the
chart-topping country hit "Guys Do It All the Time," suffered from
addiction that stalled her career. Her biggest notoriety in recent years came
from her participation in the 2009 season of the reality TV show "Celebrity
Rehab With Dr. Drew."
Private investigator Danno Hanks, who knew McCready for
several years and frequently advised her, said she called him Saturday, a day
before she died from what investigators have said was a self-inflicted gunshot.
"Saturday was a very bad day for her," Hanks said.
McCready, 37, told him about an e-mail she received on
Friday from the Arkansas Department of Human Services' Division of Children and
Family Services that included a proposed court order that would send her two
children to live with her mother in Florida .
"The proposed court order was the nail in her coffin,
the thing that sent her over the edge," Hanks said.
The Arkansas
agency declined to comment on the case, citing confidentiality laws.
