Overview
- Darrell Sheets, a longtime star of A&E’s Storage Wars, was found dead at his Lake Havasu City home on April 22, 2026, and the Mohave County medical examiner ruled his death a suicide.
- Investigators recovered a handwritten note tucked in a bathroom basket that said in part, “I could not take anymore the Facebook bulling,” linking Sheets’ final message to social‑media harassment.
- Police interviewed a man Sheets had identified as an online harasser who denied involvement and was described as “extremely uncooperative,” and officers closed the inquiry saying there was no evidence of foul play.
- Sheets’ girlfriend told detectives he had severe insomnia and was upset after a recent heated argument with his son, and she said she heard one gunshot after finding him in his office with what she believed was a handgun to his head.
- Co‑stars and family have publicly mourned Sheets and his son has said he will reopen his father’s Arizona shop, while the report has renewed public focus on how persistent online harassment can affect mental health and small communities.
