It seems that the extent of the head trauma is more extensive than was originally suggested.
“This is significant trauma,” Dr. Gavin Britz, the neurosurgery chair at Houston Methodist, told The New York Times. “This is something I find with someone with a baseball bat to the head, or who has fallen from 20 or 30 feet.”

“It should be public record in Florida.”
Good luck finding that. About all you’re going to get is the medical examiner’s opinion describing a report you won’t see. An inquest.

I’ve been to Extremadura, although not that town. A lot of people emigrated to the US from Extremadura over the centuries.
It’s very beautiful in its way. It looks a lot like California. I always thought that when the Spanish explorers hit the Southwest or Southern CA, they must have thought they’d never left home!
Best wishes to you! Un gran abrazo, as they say in Spain…a big hug!
I’m going to try to make this a short story: an employee in a shipyard was found kneeling by a raised pipe of the deck of a tanker, bleeding from the head. It was obvious that he had fallen down and hit his head on the pipe. He was in very bad shape. The ER doctor called me and said there is no way this happened as described. I assured him it did, but he did not believe me. The next day we found some of his personal items in a tank and figured out he had fallen about 15 feet and landed on his head. The point is that doctors are very good at determining mechanism of injury. Also, despite a very serious head injury, this guy was able to climb a vertical ladder out of the tank and walk about 50 feet to where he was discovered. If something like this had happened at his house he could very well have gone and laid down and died.
Oops … “indescribable” should have been “indestructible” … stupid iPad autocorrection slipped that one past me and I didn’t catch it …
Note to self: Never fail to tip room service and staff the proper amount.
LOL! He sounds like a good guy and was probably a good tipper.
But aside from that, I’ve stayed in a lot of higher end hotels worldwide, attended conferences in good conference hotels (the Ritz Carlton has a great conference space), and I was truly impressed by the staff and their organization.
I rarely am.
So I bet Bob Saget’s final hotel stay was a great one, and I hope that he’s now happily home at last.
There would be video of Saget (and anyone else) entering the roon in any case and it was no doubt thoroughly reviewed.
You can’t be serious?
Multiple skull fractures going from back to the front of the skull. Eye socket injury.... is why a full investigation is taking place. This is not a slip and fall.
This is MAJOR head trauma.
I don’t know.
Dead serious. Never heard of him.
Most people remember him from Full House and America’s Funniest Home Videos. But, if you click on Filmography, you’ll be able to see what movies/tv he was in.

He hosted the show. (Past tense)
READ LATER.
Thanks.
“Eye socket injury.... is why a full investigation is taking place. “
Dr. Roshini Raj, an Associate Professor of Medicine at NYU Langone Health said, “The head hits something hard and the skull fractures in different places including the orbits (the part of the skull around the eyes) and that causes bleeding which compresses the brain.”
Saget didn’t die from the blow. Evidence displayed he died from brain trauma and the bleeding the followed it. I was suspect of the injury locations also, but I can’t find a motive for an attack and the news sources don’t seem to be able to either from what I’ve found. Additionally there was no mention of any blows to the front of the head.

Understood. But just because we don’t know a motive for an attack, does not mean there wasn’t one. I mean who are we or anyone to know what conflicts he may have had in his life.
“...conflicts he may have had in his life.”
He had a few but none known that would lead to murder.
“...does not mean there wasn’t one.”
Didn’t say there was or was not. But the one problem I had with the issue to make it explainable for a fall only was that there were two different areas of the skull effected. And there is an explanation as I quoted. So this is not a cut and dry case of murder. And as they are calling it an accident with the blessings of the family, nothing there to argue. Case closed.

Curious if may have been a situation similar to Heather McDonald.
Either way, my own mother has had some terrible falls and she never experienced anything close to these injuries. And she had some terrible falls before her passing.
