Hulk Hogan Family Pursues Medical Malpractice Probe After Heart Attack Death

Hulk Hogan, the 71-year-old wrestling legend whose real name was Terry Bollea, died of a heart attack at his Clearwater, Florida home, with the death officially ruled as natural. Despite the medical examiner's conclusion, police continue to investigate the circumstances of his death, describing the case as "unique" due to the need to interview multiple witnesses and review medical records from various healthcare providers. Hogan's family has requested a 90-day extension for filing a potential medical malpractice lawsuit, focusing on the care he received at Morton Plant Hospital and Tampa General Hospital, and concerns have been raised about complications from recent surgery affecting his breathing. While no healthcare provider has been accused of wrongdoing, the ongoing investigation and legal actions highlight scrutiny over the medical treatment Hogan received in the days leading to his death. Hogan's widow, Sky Daily, has been involved in the investigation and potential litigation, which could take over two years to resolve. Police have stated there is no evidence of foul play, but the case remains open and active as authorities continue to gather information.
