In the weeks since wrestling icon Hulk Hogan’s passing, his estranged daughter Brooke Bollea has stirred public attention by requesting access to police body cam footage and 911 tapes from the day her father died.
Hogan, real name Terry Bollea, passed away at 71 from cardiac arrest last month, leaving behind a complicated family dynamic and lingering questions.
Brooke Bollea Speaks Out About Unanswered Questions
Brooke, 37, initially stayed silent after her father’s death but later called for an autopsy and hinted at potential foul play.
Though she briefly retracted those comments, she has now returned to social media with a new statement, claiming that footage and recordings could “shed enough light to change the narrative” surrounding Hogan’s final moments.
On her Instagram story, Brooke wrote that she had been contacted by professionals, including police officials and nurses present the day of Hogan’s death, who encouraged her to access body cam footage and 911 calls.
“They are quite literally putting their careers at risk because they feel so compelled to do the right thing,” she said.
However, Brooke noted that her hands are tied legally, as her father’s wife controls access to this information.
Uncertainty Around Cremation and Autopsy
Brooke admitted she has no knowledge about if or when Hogan might be cremated and said she has been told by her brother that an autopsy will be performed, though she does not know who will conduct it.
She emphasized that any information she receives from the autopsy, should it happen, would remain private out of respect for her father.
“All body cam footage and 911 dispatch calls are not available via the Freedom of Information Act. It’s all on lockdown,” Brooke wrote.
Hogan’s Death Ruled Natural Despite Health Issues
Hogan’s death was confirmed by a Florida medical examiner’s office as stemming from cardiac arrest.
The 71-year-old had a history of leukemia and atrial fibrillation, an irregular heart rhythm.
Despite these medical facts, Brooke shared articles and social media posts suggesting questions about a quick cremation and lack of an autopsy, fueling conspiracy theories.
Clearwater Police and Friends Respond to Claims
Authorities have attempted to quash speculation.
The Clearwater Police Department stated, “As previously stated, there are no signs of foul play or anything suspicious about the death.”
Hogan was pronounced dead at a hospital less than 90 minutes after paramedics responded to a cardiac arrest call at his Clearwater home on July 24.
Friend and radio personality Bubba the Love Sponge, who shared controversial claims about Hogan’s death, suggested potential foul play, including injections into Hogan’s dialysis port and questions about timing around dialysis treatment.
However, no evidence was provided to substantiate these claims.
Family Urges Patience Amid Conspiracy Theories
In the wake of these social media claims, Hogan’s ex-wife Sky Daily urged the public not to jump to conclusions.
She warned against “misleading media stories created by faceless AI accounts” and encouraged patience as facts continue to emerge about the wrestler’s fatal heart attack.
