Brooke Hogan is publicly criticizing the Clearwater Police Department's investigation into her father Hulk Hogan's death, believing it was mishandled from the outset. She expresses dismay at the department's conclusion of natural causes and their public acknowledgment of her cooperation, which she felt was unwarranted given her perceived lack of involvement.
- Brooke Hogan believes the Clearwater Police Department (CWPD) made critical errors by not treating her father's death as a major investigation from day one, missing inconsistencies and failing to question everyone thoroughly. She felt excluded from the process and that the department's public statements were dismissive.
- Specific concerns raised by Brooke include conflicting information about the availability and findings of blood samples, as well as redactions in public police records concerning Hulk's prescription medications that did not appear in toxicology reports.
- She also questions why a private autopsy conducted for the family was not shared with her and never publicly released, and why her father's death certificate was signed by his personal physician instead of a medical examiner. This criticism follows the CWPD's nearly yearlong review, which concluded there was no evidence of foul play.
