Questions Swirl Around Hulk Hogan’s Death
Share and Follow

Florida police are still looking into the death of pro wrestling legend Hulk Hogan last month, saying Thursday they are looking at the 71-year-old’s medical records, a day after his daughter posted on Instagram information in the 911 call and body cam footage from the day of his death would “change the narrative.”

Hogan, whose real name is Terry Bollea, died on July 24.

Brooke Bollea, Hogan’s daughter who uses the stage name Brooke Hogan, posted on her “mizzhogan” Instagram account that she has “100% gotten legit calls from professionals — from police officials to nurses that were supposedly with my dad on the day of his death telling ME I need to see body cam footage and I need to get a hold of the 911 tapes because they supposedly contain information that could potentially shed enough light to change the narrative we/I/everyone’s been hearing.”

“Those same professionals feel so passionately about what they witnessed, they have continued to contact me and push me to find specific answers to this very day,” she wrote. “They are quite literally putting their careers at risk because they feel so compelled to do the right thing.”

TMZ got unnamed sources to tell them that an occupational therapist at Hogan’s home on the day he died told the responding officers that Hogan was a victim of medical malpractice at a recent surgery when the surgeon “severed” his phrenic nerve, a nerve that stimulates the diaphragm and controls breathing.

That information was provided on the 911 call, the sources said, and would likely be on body camera footage, if the cameras were turned on.

Hogan’s widow, Sky Daily, confirmed to TMZ that the phrenic nerve was “compromised” during a recent surgery, but she did not say when that surgery took place. She also said that an autopsy was conducted (Hogan’s daughter had offered to pay for one herself) and said that a planned cremation had not yet taken place.

Clearwater Police said in a statement provided to The Associated Press that the “unique nature of this case has required us to interview multiple witnesses and seek medical records from a variety of providers, and our detectives continue to do that.”

“All of this takes time,” the statement said. “Until the investigation is completed, no records related to the case, including body camera footage, can be released.”

Police said they have been working with the family, including daughter Brooke and son Nick, and will be meeting with them “to share the results of the investigation … prior to closing the case and releasing it to the public and media.”

Police previously said there was no indication of any foul play in Hogan’s death, and the medical examiner’s report concluded that the cause of death was natural.
