Hulk Hogan's Widow Considers Lawsuit Over His Death As Suspicion Grows

The circumstances surrounding Hulk Hogan's sudden death are sparking a fierce legal battle.
Sky Daily, Hogan’s widow, is now considering a lawsuit against the doctors who treated him, claiming that a neck surgery could have contributed to the tragedy.
Here's the inside story of the ongoing investigation, secrets, and the mystery surrounding Hogan's untimely demise.
A Neck Surgery That May Have Changed Everything

Sky Daily has been outspoken about her suspicions surrounding the surgery Hulk Hogan underwent months before his death.
According to her, the wrestling legend’s phrenic nerve, which is crucial for controlling the ability to breathe, was "compromised" during a neck operation in May. This left him struggling for breath in the weeks leading up to his death.
Daily shared with the Daily Mail, "We are investigating for possible malpractice. If you have shortness of breath for a long time, that makes you very sick."
She believes the compromised nerve caused Hogan’s gradual decline, explaining that it didn’t lead to an immediate collapse but rather wore him down, making him weak.
The question on everyone’s mind is whether this surgery contributed to his heart stopping that tragic day at his Clearwater Beach home. Sky's answer is clear, "Definitely."
The Therapist Who Uncovered A Possible Botched Surgery

The surgery-related concerns didn’t emerge in isolation. An unnamed therapist, who worked at Hulk Hogan's mansion, tipped off police about the possibility that the neck surgery had gone wrong.
This revelation led to the investigation into Hogan’s death, with the therapist claiming that the nerve had been "severed" during the operation. However, Daily corrected the therapist’s version, stating that it wasn’t entirely severed but "damaged."
In a shocking turn of events, the therapist was identified as Justin McCamey, a 54-year-old from Land O'Lakes, Florida.
When the Daily Mail tried to contact McCamey, he denied being the person who had spoken to the authorities, but later admitted to sharing information from medical records with the police.
Daily also revealed that McCamey’s information, although critical, was not based on firsthand observations. This adds another layer of intrigue to an already complex case.
Hulk Hogan’s Body And The Investigation Process

As the investigation into Hogan's death continues, the handling of his body has become a point of contention.
Hogan's embalmed body had been kept at a Clearwater funeral home for five weeks, with Sky Daily indicating that they would soon proceed with cremation.
"We are wrapping up this medical investigation," she said, signaling that they are nearing a conclusion on whether to move forward with a malpractice lawsuit.
Daily admitted that the investigative process is slow and requires careful documentation.
"It’s not like in the movies where you snap your fingers. It’s very time-consuming to call, sending in records requests, get approvals, send in the death certificate to get information," she said.
Despite these frustrations, she is determined to seek justice for her late husband.
Hulk Hogan’s Daughter's Grief And Questions Over His Death

Amid the ongoing investigations, Hogan's daughter, Brooke, has voiced her concerns about the official cause of her father's death.
While the medical examiner ruled that Hogan’s death was "natural" due to acute myocardial infarction, Brooke has publicly questioned the circumstances surrounding his passing.
She went on social media to claim she had been contacted by medical professionals who raised doubts about the official narrative. “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,” she wrote.
Brooke, who has struggled with the aftermath of her father's passing, also revealed the emotional toll of the situation, saying, "I cannot do anything, my hands are tied, and I have no say in anything regarding my dad."
However, after visiting the funeral home and seeing her father one last time, she appeared to find some closure.
"He looked like he was ready to go on TV," Brooke remarked on Bubba the Love Sponge's radio show, describing her father's appearance at the funeral home. "He was big, strong, hair looking good, bandana, Fu Manchu going on – he looked great."
The Uncertain Future Of Hulk Hogan’s Legacy

The circumstances surrounding Hogan’s death are still under investigation, with both his widow and daughter seeking answers.
The questions about his neck surgery, the role of his personal physician, and the official cause of death all remain unresolved.
Meanwhile, the public continues to speculate about the true cause behind his tragic passing.
Sky Daily is fighting to ensure that Hulk’s death is properly understood and that any wrongdoing is exposed.
As she continues her search for answers, she remains determined to honor Hogan’s legacy. "I know the truth will come out, so I'm sitting back here politely being, like, everything's being well documented. I know it's fine," she said.
The investigation into Hogan’s death has brought to light numerous secrets, with questions still swirling around the surgery and the role of medical professionals in his final days.
The fight for justice continues, and Daily’s potential medical malpractice lawsuit could be just the beginning of a long and arduous journey toward uncovering the full story.
