The late Stephen ‘tWitch’ Boss, who was a choreographer, DJ, and co-host of The Ellen DeGeneres Show, sadly passed away on Tuesday, December 13. The talk show regular shockingly died by suicide.
Since his death, several conspiracy theories surrounding his and Anne Heche’s death have gone viral online.
DJ Stephen ‘tWitch’ Boss reportedly shot himself dead in a Los Angeles hotel. The police also confirmed that there were no signs of “foul play” in his death. Confirming his demise, his wife Allison Holker said in a statement to People magazine:
“It is with the heaviest of hearts that I have to share my husband Stephen has left us. 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.”
Actor Anne Heche, another friend of Ellen DeGeneres – who was also an ex-girlfriend of the talk show host – passed away in August after a devastating car crash in Los Angeles. It was also reported that drugs were present in her system at the time of her death.
Conspiracy theories relating Anne Heche’s and Twitch’s death to Ellen DeGeneres explored
Several netizens found it strange that two acquaintances of the talk-show host passed away in the same year. Many pointed fingers towards Ellen DeGeneres being behind their deaths, despite autopsies stating otherwise. They also believe that Ellen DeGeneres was responsible for tWitch’s death.
Some even claimed that Ellen DeGeneres and the Illuminati were behind the late dancer’s death.
Since Anne Heche also knew DeGeneres from their three-year long relationship, many speculated that the latter had something to do with the Six Days, Seven Nights actress’ death as well.
Meanwhile, the management of the Oak Tree Inn revealed in a statement to Radar Online that tWitch checked into the facility without a vehicle on Monday. The building is a 14-minute walk from his Los Angeles residence. A day before his death, he apparently did not appear distressed at check-in.
The motel staff also reported that he did not appear to be in trouble, as he arrived with only a tiny suitcase. The police have subsequently seized his things, and the bag may include his suicide note.
Reportedly, tWitch reserved the room for one night, but failed to check out before 11 a.m. The management then dispatched staff to his room, where the body was discovered in the bathtub.
After witnessing the horrible scenario, the manager phoned 911 immediately. It is uncertain where he shot himself, and there were reportedly no gunshots heard in the area.
