Hulk Hogan’s occupational therapist is detailing the WWE star’s final moments in a newly-released police report.
“So… we’re trying not to say much in front of her, but he is in rough shape,” the wrestler’s occupational therapist, Justin McCamey, told responding Clearwater Police Department officer Jordan Bailey, according to the 72-page final report obtained by Us Weekly on Saturday, June 6.
“We knew this was gonna be happening,” McCamey told the officer, per the report and after claiming he “saw it,” referring to Hogan’s death at age 71. “Came in, did the… chest wasn’t elevating. Couldn’t wake him up … he just… stopped breathing.”
Hogan, real name Terry Gene Bollea, died on July 24, 2025, his family confirmed to Us at the time. TMZ was first to report the news.
It was later revealed that the famed wrestler died from acute myocardial infarction, most commonly known as a heart attack. According to court documents obtained by Us, Hogan had a history of leukemia CLL, a type of cancer that affects white blood cells called lymphocytes. It is not believed that Hogan’s cancer was public knowledge prior to his death.
Dana Swinton, Hogan’s home health aide who was also present when the wrestler died, was also interviewed by Officer Bailey.
“I mean, he wasn’t up as [much as] he was Saturday and Sunday when I had him, but he was still talking this morning, a little low, a little mumbly,” she told the officer, per the report. “I got him in the chair, he ate a little yogurt, he was fine. Set him up there, like… set him up in a chair … where he was asleep, but he was breathing.”
It wasn’t until McCamey returned from the bathroom, the report states, that the pair noticed something was wrong.
“The patient was in the chair. By the time he came to do the vitals for the visit he’s on, there was no pulse,” Swinton said. “[Hulk] hasn’t been moved, I’d say, he probably got down… probably… I’d say he got down here probably at 8:30-8:45, which we got down here, he’s been down here.”
According to the report, McCamey told authorities that the WWE star’s health had been “very poor ever since” a recent surgery, noting that Hulk had “approximately 20-30 various knee, hip and back surgeries over the years.” The occupational therapist also provided authorities with a list of medications the wrestler was taking at the time of his death.
The report, released on Friday, June 5, concludes the Clearwater Police Department’s investigation into the wrestler’s death, confirming there is no clear evidence of any wrongdoing.
“Under the circumstances, it fell to the Clearwater Police Department to address, challenge, or validate some of the concerns in the case,” the department wrote. “Investigators had to interview multiple witnesses and review various recordings to answer questions central to our inquiry.”
Authorities also thanked Swinton, McCamey and Hulk’s wife, Sky Daily, for their cooperation in their now-closed investigation.
“Their willingness to allow our investigators access to very personal information, at a time when they were grieving and struggling, was extremely helpful,” the department said in part.
