Bob Saget died after sustaining what appeared to be significant head trauma, according to a recently released autopsy report.
The 65-year-old star was found unresponsive in his hotel bed in Orlando, Florida, on January 9. Last week, Saget's family announced that he had died after he "accidentally hit the back of his head on something, thought nothing of it and went to sleep."
However, an autopsy report by Dr. Joshua Stephany, the chief medical examiner of Orange and Osceola counties in Florida, suggests the head injury was far more serious than one that could have been shrugged off.
...
Dr. Gavin Britz, the chair in neurosurgery at Houston Methodist Hospital, said: "This is significant trauma. This is something I find with someone with a baseball bat to the head, or who has fallen from 20 or 30 feet."
Pointing out that the autopsy described fractures to thick parts of the skull, as well as to bones in the roof of the eye socket, Dr. Britz added: "If you fracture your orbit, you have significant pain."
Dr. Stephany, who ruled that Saget's death was accidental, determined that the injuries were likely sustained through a fall, although the report found no injuries on other parts of his body, which would have been expected if he had fallen from a great height.
...
The autopsy report also found that Saget had an enlarged heart, though there was no suggestion that this had contributed to his death.
A PCR test detected signs of COVID-19. The star said in early January that he had contracted the virus, but didn't specify when. A PCR test can detect COVID weeks after someone has recovered.

another CV-19 death.
Nothing t0 see here folks.
“Seriously, no it doesn’t”.
You might want to read the story:
“the autopsy described fractures to thick parts of the skull, as well as to bones in the roof of the eye socket”
You’re right. That is a traumatic blow.
Has anyone bothered to review the hotel surveillance video? An establishment like the Ritz-Carlton in Orlando (where Saget was staying) likely has cameras in the hallways on every floor. Did someone enter the room with him?
Likewise, I believe the electronic key systems now used by all hotels record when the someone uses a key to enter the room. Do those records match Saget’s activities on the night he died? By all accounts, he left the hotel to do a set at a local comedy club that lasted over two hours. After the show, he had dinner and returned to his room. Should be video and electronic key records to confirm that.
Medical examiner said Saget’s skull was “cracked like an egg,” indicating multiple fractures emanating from the point of impact. Doesn’t sound like the kind of injury you’d get from bumping your head on the nightstand. And, after suffering that type of injury, how did he get himself into bed.
I will gladly defer to security experts and medical types who can offer more informed analysis of Saget’s injuries and the type of security data that might shed more light on his activities that night.
And Seth Rich’s parents asked for no further investigation into their son’s “mugging” death. So what?
Crane was a sex addict, and his problem became worse after he divorced his first wife and married the actress who played Klink’s secretary on “Hogan’s Heroes.” That marriage ended not long after the series was canceled. By the late 70s, he was working primarily on the dinner theater circuit, where a former TV star could draw a crowd and make decent money. That’s why Crane was in Arizona, where he was murdered.
The man long suspected of killing the actor was John Carpenter, an electronics salesman who was introduced to Crane by his “Hogan’s” co-star, Richard Dawson. Carpenter provided the equipment and tech expertise that allowed him and Crane to videotape their orgies with women they picked up. Crane had no trouble attracting female sex partners and Carpenter got the rejects. Police investigators learned the two men had argued shortly before Crane was beaten to death in his room in Scotsdale. Carpenter was eventually tried for the crime and acquitted in 1994. He died in 1998.
Since then, other theories have been advanced. One of Crane’s sons claimed his stepmother was involved. The National Enquirer reported that Crane was killed on the orders of an LA mob boss, who advanced the actor thousands of dollars to star in a X-rated film. When Crane balked (and kept the money), the mobster ordered the hit.
While the Crane muder is a cold case, authorities in Arizona have never pursued other leads since the acquittal of John Carpenter.
Two ironies: after Bob Crane was found murdered in Arizona, he fled to Beverly Hills, where he stayed at the home of Richard Dawson for a couple of days. And it was another “Hogan’s” star, Werner Klemperer, who led the public push to have Carpenter indicted and tried for the killing.
Saget may have been a closet gay & had an altercation with another male. The type of head trauma found in the autopsy covers too large an area of the skull to result from a simple fall in the bathroom, or wherever, in a hotel room. His family is behaving oddly, do they know more than they want revealed?
Was he wearing his Rolex? Was there a Black Widow operating out of that hotel?
Those hookers he hired must like baseball.
