Hulk Hogan may have been the victim of medical malpractice -- malpractice that may have cost him his life -- this according to sources connected to the death case.

Transcript

00:00We're going to start with Hulk Hogan because we now have new information based on the police

00:07report in the case and other information suggesting that his death was the result of medical malpractice.

00:16Medical malpractice having to do with an injury, at least as a nurse who was on the

00:22scene.

00:23An occupational therapist.

00:25An occupational therapist who was on the scene who feared and shared this fear with

00:30the police that during his surgery that Hulk's phrenic nerve had been severed.

00:39And the phrenic nerve basically connects to the diaphragm which controls breathing.

00:44What's significant here is we are told that Hulk's wife Skye sounded the alarm when she

00:52saw Hulk had stopped breathing.

00:55Now I just, Charles and I have been going back and forth because I was on the phone

01:00with sources dealing with 45 minutes ago when he was working on the Lil Nas X story.

01:08So when I was on the phone you say that the occupational therapist feared.

01:12Actually what I was told was he said it.

01:16He didn't think it.

01:17He said.

01:18The nurse said this.

01:19The nurse, the occupational therapist said that it was the result of this phrenic nerve.

01:26So this nurse.

01:27It's not a nurse.

01:28There was a nurse there and an occupational therapist.

01:31Said that it actually did happen?

01:33That's what he said.

01:34Now again, I don't know the basis of it.

01:36I do know based on our phone calls that we made that it is in the police report and there

01:44is body cam at the scene.

01:46And I'm told that there is body cam both where the officers were discussing it amongst themselves.

01:52And presumably there is body cam when police were interacting with the occupational therapist.

02:00What is really interesting about this and honestly we have not gotten to the bottom of yet is that

02:09there was talk that Hulk had been cremated.

02:12Brooke Hogan, Hulk's daughter, has wanted an autopsy and said there was something suspicious

02:17here.

02:18And you would think if, we don't know whether he's been cremated yet, a week ago they said

02:24he had not yet been cremated.

02:26But we don't know what the status is now.

02:28But you would think they would go for an autopsy if there was any evidence of medical malpractice.

02:34Correct, correct.

02:35And you remember, Hulk had two surgeries.

02:38In mid-May he had one effusion on his neck to repair a neck injury and that's when Charles

02:42mentioned.

02:43But about a week or two or a couple days before he passed away he had a surgery on his heart

02:46as well.

02:47So it's unclear which surgery the occupational therapist is addressing.

02:53Right.

02:54With the phrenic nerve.

02:55But it was a recent surgery.

02:56So all that being said though, you would think that if he had both these operations prior,

02:59you would want the autopsy to figure out what happened.

03:02What I can't, why wouldn't the, if the police have this information from at least as the occupational

03:09therapist put it, why wouldn't the medical exam, why wouldn't the police order an autopsy

03:15even without the families?

03:17As opposed to Skye needing it, right?

03:18Right.

03:19I cannot answer that question yet.

03:21I don't know the ins and outs of Florida law that way.

03:25I just don't know.

03:27The odd thing to me is that if this was medical malpractice you would think the family, i.e.

03:32Skye, would have a claim and you would want that autopsy to confirm it.

03:36And that's why this is so odd to me that as far as we know there has not yet been an autopsy.

03:43Correct.

03:44And that doesn't, that's what does not make sense to me.

03:46You know, there are other things that Brooke wonders about, we're told.

03:50But this now we know is in the police report.

03:55And again, presumably we're told on body cam, at least amongst the officers.

04:01I'm assuming that the whole conversation with the occupational therapist is on.

04:05And Skye was present when this was happening.

04:08Skye was right there.

04:09Skye was right there.

04:10She's the one who sounded the alarm in the first place.

04:11Right.

04:12He was, we're told he was sitting in a chair.

04:14Correct.

04:15He was sitting in a chair.

04:16This wasn't a heart attack where he grabbed his heart, we're told.

04:19He was sitting in a chair.

04:21And just stopped breathing.

04:22And just stopped breathing.

04:23So there has to be an autopsy, I mean.

04:25But yet we're told, not as of yet, no.

04:28Why there hasn't been an autopsy.

04:30And although, the fact that he has not been cremated, at least as of last week, had not

04:35been cremated, at least points to that they're talking, there's some conversations going on

04:40about this.

04:41Skye said that.

04:42She put on her Instagram story that she was, there was family concerns and they weren't

04:44going to cremate him until those family concerns got assuaged.

04:46Okay.

04:47But that was a week ago though.

04:48Now we know what those family concerns are.

04:50Correct.

04:51But she was present when the occupational therapist said.

04:55So what isn't she ordering?

04:56Exactly.

04:57There are questions.

04:58Yeah.

04:59Hey, I'm Cameron from Charlotte, North Carolina.

05:01And my thing is, Brooke Hogan and Hulk have had a tumultuous relationship.

05:05But I want to know why so much is able to be happening without her knowledge or consent

05:10being involved at all.

05:11I think there was not the greatest relationship between Skye and Brooke.

05:18And I think Hulk, this is my opinion, Hulk had to choose sides.

05:24And I think he was kind of caught in the middle of all of this.

05:28And that's my theory.

05:29That's my theory.
