The cause of death for Stephen "tWitch" Boss, who was discovered dead on Tuesday, has been listed as a gunshot wound.
However, in an eerie recently-resurfaced video, a former producer of "The Ellen DeGeneres Show," where the well-known DJ worked, was seen advising the talk show cast by stating, "Don't keep in the pain," after the Emmy Award-winning program had concluded last spring.
Andy Lassner could be heard and seen saying in the clip, "Keep each other close, don't keep in the pain, talk to someone - anyone." The gathering of personnel was exhorted by him to take care of themselves.
The video was posted on Instagram on Wednesday by Johanna Fuentes, a former senior communications executive at Warner Bros. She described Stephen "tWitch" Boss as a "immense talent who brought joy to every place he came into" in the description of the photo, expressing how "devastated" she was by his passing.
The brief video also had Mary Connelly, another showrunner, addressing the cast and crew after the last episode, which was shown in May.
In the now-foreboding video, Andy also made a subtle allusion to the severe toll the cancellation of "The Ellen DeGeneres Show" may have on his coworkers by telling them, "It's a life change and we're all going through it."
After failing to check out of his hotel, Stephen "tWitch" Boss was discovered dead by a maid at the Oak Tree Inn in Encino, California.
The hotel workers informed TMZ that when tWitch checked in, he didn't appear to be in any trouble or concerned about anything.
