Laretes died a hero, poisoned by his own sword. During the duel between Laertes and Hamlet the poisoned foil that Laertes had came into Hamlet's possession. Hamlet then used the poisoned foil (unknowingly) to wound Laertes. As Laertes lay dying, he confessed all of the king's crimes and asked for Hamlet's forgiveness. Laertes follows his sister Ophelia and his father Polonius in death.
