Hulk Hogan’s Death May Be Result of Medical Malpractice

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.

Law enforcement sources tell TMZ — the Clearwater PD police report regarding the 911 response to Hulk’s home the day he died — says an occupational therapist was present at the wrestling legend’s Florida residence when he stopped breathing.

According to the report — which is on “lockdown” — the therapist told responding officers Hulk was the victim of medical malpractice. The therapist says during a recent operation — it’s unclear if it was the surgery to repair his heart or a neck procedure — the surgeon “severed” his phrenic nerve.

The phrenic stimulates the diaphragm, which controls breathing. Our sources say Hulk’s wife, Sky, sounded the alarm when he stopped breathing … and that’s when the 911 call was made.

We’re also told there were conversations among the officers at the scene where they talked about what the therapist had told them, and this is on body cam. It’s a fair assumption the conversation between the occupational therapist and the officers is also on body cam.

Hulk’s daughter, Brooke, has called for an autopsy. As of a week ago, we were told Hulk’s body was not yet cremated, but we have not gotten clarity if cremation has taken place.
