The autopsy results into Stephen "tWitch" Boss' death at 40 last December 2022 have revealed no visible signs he was struggling with mental health issues or thinking of suicide.

According to a recent article in The Blast, Allison Holker, wife of the late DJ tWitch, disclosed to investigators that her husband had not exhibited any signs of gloom or despair.

When questioned by investigators, Allison noted that, to her knowledge, Stephen had never made any suicide attempts or contemplated it in the past.

Likewise, she declared he did not suffer from any form of mental health disorder, nor was there a financial or marriage problem.

The autopsy on the "Ellen" star showed that he had not been suffering from any existing mental health issues before his death, as confirmed by the toxicology report, which also revealed no presence of drugs or alcohol in his body.

In addition, the room where his corpse was located was still kept in order, with all his belongings still neatly organized.

The Report

At precisely 11:10 last Tuesday, December 13, 2022, the hotel manager and housekeeping staff ventured into the decedent's room as he had not yet checked out.

His items remained in place, and upon inspecting the shower, they found him unresponsive with what seemed to be a self-inflicted gunshot wound.

On the north wall of the room stood an immaculate table, atop which lay articles of clothing folded with precision. And in one corner sat the decedent's backpack, heaving with notebooks and housing an accompanying laptop computer within it.

After The Tragedy

Though the details of his death remain a mystery, it has been reported that Stephen "tWitch" Boss did not complete a will before his passing.

TMZ also revealed that he had left behind a note which alluded to his struggles with "past challenges," but no other specifics were given.

In her initial discussion with People magazine after her husband's demise, Alison uncovered that no one had a hint of what he was experiencing. "He wanted to cover it up," she admitted. "He just wanted to be everyone's hero and take care of them."

Following the sad demise of the DJ, Allison has taken to social media to remember him. A few days after his passing, she expressed her sorrow in an interview.

She said, "Stephen lit up every room he stepped into. He valued family, friends, and community above all else, and leading with love and light was everything to him. He was the backbone of our family, the best husband and father, and an inspiration to his fans."
