Florida Police Close Hulk Hogan Death Case at 71, Ruling Heart Attack Natural

Q: A police report detailed Hogan's final days, but what crucial evidence does his family still hold privately?

The key evidence still held privately by Hulk Hogan’s family is the full private autopsy report, along with security-camera footage from inside his home on the morning he died. Police said their investigation reviewed both items and still found no drugs, foul play, or criminal conduct, concluding Hogan died of natural causes. But those materials were not released publicly and remain with the Bollea family. Protected medical records tied to his treatment are also not public. That matters because Hogan’s family has continued to examine his medical care, including concerns about surgeries and possible malpractice. So while the police report laid out his final hours in detail, the most important unreleased evidence is the family-commissioned autopsy in full, supported by the home surveillance footage and private medical documents.
