Overview
- TMZ published the 911 audio in which a man identifying himself as Potthast’s son reports finding him face down in a bathtub and bleeding from the chest.
- The caller says he did not know what happened and tells the dispatcher he did not think his father looked alive.
- The 911 operator instructs the caller to try to turn Potthast onto his side during the call.
- Potthast’s death was announced last month by daughter Elizabeth Castravet, and daughter Rebekah Lichtwerch also posted a tribute; he was 64.
- Recent disclosures noted an eight-hour hernia and stomach repair in September and a past glioblastoma battle reported in remission, with no confirmed link to his death, and son-in-law Andrei Castravet has denied cancer claims.
