RIP

Johnny Hardwick's body was in bad shape when he died -- so much so that officials haven't been able to figure out how exactly he died ... this according to the medical examiner.

According to the 'King of the Hill' star's autopsy report, obtained by TMZ, Johnny was found dead in his bathtub back in August -- and the water was running when he was found ... but the drain was open and he was not actually submerged.

The M.E. says there were no obvious signs of trauma ... adding that a toxicology test showed a "presumptive positive test for cannabinoids," with the report noting drugs were found at the scene -- although it's unclear what sort of substance, precisely, was discovered.

With all that said, Johnny's cause of death couldn't be determined -- this due to the "extensive decompositional changes" his body was going through when discovered. Another interesting nugget -- the 5'7" voice actor weighed just 100 pounds at the time of discovery.

TMZ broke the story, Texas officers were called to his home in August for a welfare check, which is when they discovered his body -- he was pronounced dead at the scene, and no foul play was suspected at the time.

Johnny lent his voice to the animated show for 258 episodes of the long-running series, famously playing Dale Gribble ... only missing one episode in the show's entire run. He was also cited as returning for a supposed revival of the show, but it's unclear if he ever recorded for it before his death.

Fans mourned the loss of Johnny soon after he was pronounced dead -- and Mike Judge, co-creator of the series and voice of the show's lead, Hank Hill, told us he was "deeply saddened" by his passing.

He was 64.

El cuerpo de Johnny Hardwick estaba en mal estado cuando falleció, tanto es así que los funcionarios no han sido capaces de averiguar cómo murió exactamente, esto de acuerdo con el médico forense.

Según el informe de la autopsia de la estrella de "King of the Hill", obtenido por TMZ, Johnny fue encontrado sin vida en su bañera en agosto. El agua estaba corriendo cuando fue encontrado, pero el desagüe estaba abierto y en realidad no estaba sumergido.

El médico forense dice que no había signos evidentes de trauma, y añade que una prueba de toxicología mostró un "presunto positivo para los cannabinoides". El informe señala que se encontraron drogas en la escena, aunque no está claro qué tipo de sustancia precisamente.

Con todo esto dicho, la causa de muerte de Johnny no pudo ser determinada. Esto, debido a los "extensos cambios de descomposición" que sufrió su cuerpo cuando fue descubierto. Otro dato interesante es que el actor de doblaje medía 1,70 m y estaba pesando solo 45 kilos en el momento del hallazgo.

TMZ dio a conocer la historia, los oficiales de Texas fueron llamados a su casa en agosto para chequear si todo estaba bien, que es cuando encontraron su cuerpo. Se declaró su fallecimiento en el lugar, y no hubo sospecha de crimen violento en ese momento.

Johnny prestó su voz para la serie animada en 258 episodios. Se hizo famoso por interpretar a Dale Gribble, perdiéndose solo un capítulo de toda la serie durante su exhibición. También se dijo que volvería para una supuesta reposición del show, pero no está claro si llegó a grabar para el proyecto antes de su muerte.

Los fans lloraron la pérdida de Johnny poco después de que fuera declarado muerto, y Mike Judge, co-creador de la serie y voz del protagonista, Hank Hill, nos dijo que estaba "profundamente entristecido" por su muerte.

Tenía 64 años.

Una mujer que conducía un Porsche a más de 100 millas por hora en una carretera del estado de Washington perdió el control y se fue por los aires, chocando y matando al pasajero que la acompañaba, y todo fue capturado en video.

Ting Ye, de 26 años, fue acusada de homicidio vehicular cuando un juez del condado de King emitió una orden de arresto contra ella tras el accidente del 30 de septiembre en Bellevue, Washington.

Las imágenes de las cámaras de tráfico capturaron a Ye zumbando por la autopista en el carro deportivo con su pasajero, Yabao Liu, en las primeras horas de la mañana.

De repente, el vehículo da vueltas y se desplaza lateralmente, chocando contra una barrera metálica y saliendo disparado fuera de la calzada mientras se volcaba salvajemente.

Liu, de 27 años, falleció, mientras que Ye fue tratada en un hospital local por heridas leves. Ya fue dada de alta.  La pareja llegó a Bellevue por motivos de trabajo, aunque no está claro cuál es su relación exactamente.

De acuerdo con documentos de la corte, Ye no cooperó con la policía y se escabulló del centro médico, dirigiéndose a Canadá antes de huir a China.

Los fiscales presentaron entonces la acusación penal contra Ye, mientras el juez firmaba su orden de detención. Ahora, están trabajando con las autoridades federales de Washington DC para traerla de vuelta a Bellevue y que enfrente la justicia.

Un obstáculo importante es China, que no tiene un tratado de extradición con Estados Unidos, lo que impide que el gobierno extranjero la entregue.

A woman driving a Porsche at more than 100 miles per hour on a Washington state highway lost control and went airborne, crashing and killing her passenger -- and it was all caught on video.

26-year-old Ting Ye was charged with vehicular homicide as a King County judge issued an arrest warrant for her following the deadly September 30th incident in Bellevue, WA.

Traffic camera footage captured Ye whizzing down the freeway in the sports car with her passenger, Yabao Liu, in the early morning hours.

Suddenly, the vehicle spins around and travels sideways, slamming into a metal barrier and launching off the roadway while flipping over wildly.

The 27-year-old Liu died, whereas Ye was treated for minor injuries at a local hospital and released. The pair came to Bellevue for work, although their exact relationship was unclear.

According to court docs, Ye was uncooperative with police and slipped out of the medical center, hightailing it to Canada before fleeing to China.

Prosecutors then filed the criminal charge against Ye, while the judge signed off on her arrest warrant. Now, they're working with federal authorities in D.C. to bring her back to Bellevue to face justice.

One major obstacle is China, which does not have an extradition treaty with the U.S., preventing the foreign government from turning her over.

Que Matthew Perry consiga una estrella en el Paseo de la Fama de Hollywood, en la misma zona que Courteney Cox y Jennifer Aniston, es una posibilidad real siempre y cuando la familia lo desee.

La Cámara de Comercio de Hollywood, que supervisa el famoso Paseo de la Fama, le dice a TMZ que les encantaría honrar al fallecido actor con una estrella y una ceremonia póstuma, pero depende de su familia la decisión de hacerlo y cuándo.

Nos dicen que Matthew fue seleccionado previamente para una estrella en el mítico paseo en 2013, después de haber presentado una solicitud por su firma de relaciones públicas, pero nunca se programó una ceremonia y en 2018 el premio expiró.

La Cámara de Comercio de Hollywood nos dice que confían en que podrían renovar el premio para Matthew, y que solo tendría que ser aprobado por el presidente del comité de selección. Francamente, eso sería pan comido.

Hasta el momento, nos dicen que nadie de la familia de Matthew se ha puesto en contacto con ellos sobre la programación de una ceremonia para entregar la estrella, lo que es muy comprensible dada la situación.

TMZ publicó la historia, Matthew fue encontrado inconsciente en su jacuzzi el sábado pasado y finalmente fue declarado muerto.

En caso de que la familia de Matthew decida darle una estrella, nos dicen que uno de sus miembros tendría que aceptarla en su nombre y la familia estaría a cargo de invitar a todos en una eventual ceremonia, con una lista de invitados entre 60 y 90 personas.

También hay un patrocinio de $75.000, para la estrella y la ceremonia, pero nos dicen que el dinero podría ser puesto por un estudio, algún miembro de la familia o sus amigos, siempre y cuando la familia de Matthew esté a bordo.

Matthew Perry getting a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame -- in the same area as Courteney Cox and Jennifer Aniston -- is a real possibility ... if that's what his family wants.

The Hollywood Chamber of Commerce, which oversees the famous Hollywood Walk of Fame, tells TMZ ... they would love to honor the late actor with a star and posthumous ceremony, but it's up to his family to decide if and when that would happen.

We're told Matthew was previously selected for a WOF star back in 2013 after being submitted by his PR firm, but a ceremony was never scheduled and in 2018 the award expired.

The Hollywood Chamber of Commerce is confident it could renew the award for Matthew, and it would just have to be approved by the chair of the selection committee. Chamber officials tell us that would be a slam dunk.

So far, we're told no one from Matthew's family has reached out to the Hollywood Chamber of Commerce about scheduling a star ceremony ... but that's understandable, given the situation.

TMZ broke the story ... Matthew was found unresponsive in his jacuzzi last month and pronounced dead.

Should Matthew's fam ultimately decide on getting him a WOF star, we're told a family member would have to accept the star on his behalf and the fam would be in charge of inviting guests to a potential ceremony, with a guest list between 60 and 90 people.

There's also a $75,000 sponsorship fee, which accounts for the WOF star and ceremony, but we're told the money could be put up by a studio, family member or friends ... as long as Matthew's family is on board.

Matt LeBlanc parece tan abatido como cabría esperar menos de una semana después de perder a su querido compañero de "Friends" Matthew Perry.

LeBlanc salió el jueves por la tarde en Sherman Oaks, California, conduciendo su Mercedes-Benz. Es la primera vez que lo hemos visto en público desde que Matthew murió el sábado pasado.

Matt lleva gafas de sol oscuras y una gorra de béisbol, y parece bastante triste, un reflejo de las emociones que él y sus ex compañeros de reparto expresaron a principios de esta semana.

Recordemos que el actor y el resto del elenco de "Friends" han dicho que están "completamente devastados" y todavía están procesando el hecho de que han perdido a Matthew.

En su declaración, Jennifer Aniston, Courteney Cox, Lisa Kudrow, David Schwimmer y Matt dijeron: "Éramos más que compañeros de reparto. Somos una familia. Hay tanto que decir, pero ahora mismo vamos a tomarnos un momento para llorar y procesar esta pérdida insondable".

Y añadieron: "Por ahora, nuestros pensamientos y nuestro amor están con la familia de Matty, sus amigos y todos los que le querían en todo el mundo".

TMZ publicó la historia. Matthew fue encontrado inconsciente en su jacuzzi, después de haber jugado dos horas de pickleball el sábado por la mañana. Las fuentes dicen que no había drogas ilícitas encontradas en su casa, aunque había varios medicamentos, incluyendo antidepresivos y medicamentos para la ansiedad.

Como te contamos por primera vez, Matthew salió a almorzar con la modelo y reportera de espectáculos Athenna Crosby el día antes de morir, y ella dice que estaba feliz y vibrante.

El informe toxicológico completo de Matthew podría tardar hasta 6 meses en completarse, aunque las pruebas iniciales revelaron que no tenía metanfetamina o fentanilo en su sistema.

Matt LeBlanc looks as downcast as you'd expect less than a week after losing his beloved "Friends" costar Matthew Perry.

LeBlanc ventured out Thursday afternoon in Sherman Oaks, CA ... driving in his Mercedes-Benz SUV. It's the first time we've seen him in public since Matthew died over last Saturday.

Matt's wearing dark sunglasses and a baseball cap, and looks pretty sad ... a reflection of the emotions he and his former cast mates expressed earlier this week.

Remember, ML and the rest of the tightknit "Friends" stars have said they are "utterly devastated," and are still processing the fact they've lost Matthew.

In their statement, Jennifer Aniston, Courteney Cox, Lisa Kudrow, David Schwimmer and Matt said ... "We were more than just cast mates. We are a family. There is so much to say, but right now we're going to take a moment to grieve and process this unfathomable loss."

They added, "For now, our thoughts and our love are with Matty's family, his friends, and everyone who loved him around the world."

TMZ broke the story ... Matthew was found unresponsive in his hot tub, after he'd played 2 hours of pickleball on Saturday morning. Sources say there were no illicit drugs found at his home, though there were several Rx medications including anti-depressants and anxiety meds.

As we first told you, Matthew went out to lunch with model and entertainment reporter Athenna Crosby the day before he died, and she says he was happy and vibrant.

Matthew's full toxicology report could take up to 6 months to complete, though initial testing revealed he didn't have meth or fentanyl in his system.

Dan Dakich spent 16 years with Bob Knight as a star player and coach, and while "The General" was certainly a hardass many times, his former pupil revealed another side of the legendary Indiana University coach ... the funny side!

"The dude was hilarious. He comes off as this big, mean, 'I'm gonna go crazy on everybody,' and he did. Let's be honest, he did. The man would go nuts on you and make you do things you never thought your body was capable of doing, but he was hilarious, honest to God," the Outkick host told TMZ Sports.

The 61-year-old continued ... "He was a guy's guy. You could crack on him if he was in the right mood. If we won a few games. And he was certainly gonna crack on you."

As for his prowess on the bench, Dan says Knight's "the best basketball coach I've seen."

Dakich played for Bobby at IU from 1981 to 1985 ... where he served as a team captain during his junior and senior seasons.

Right after graduating, DD went to work with Knight as a graduate assistant until 1987, when he became a full-time assistant coach. Dan remained with Indiana until 1997 when he left to become the head coach at Bowling Green.

Selena Gomez dice que necesita un descanso de Instagram y va a eliminar su cuenta después de ser criticada por sus comentarios sobre el conflicto entre Israel y Palestina.

Selena publicó y luego borró una historia de Instagram el jueves, donde reveló sus planes de salirse de la red, explicando: "Estoy harta de esto. No apoyo nada de lo que está pasando".

La decisión se produjo solo unos días después de que Selena publicara un post sobre la guerra en Gaza y luego fuera aplastada por los usuarios.

Como informamos, Selena se refirió este lunes a la guerra en Medio Oriente, condenando el asesinato y la tortura y diciendo: "Eso es lo que me enferma. Me gustaría poder cambiar el mundo. Pero un post no lo hará".

El post de Selena sobre Israel-Palestina fue recibido con toneladas de odio en la red, con la gente acusándola de no hacer todo lo posible por ayudar a los más necesitados, por tratar de hacerse la víctima y criticándola por decir que su plataforma es inútil.

Como hemos informado, otras celebridades han enfrentado reacciones negativas por sus opiniones sobre el conflicto en curso. La ex estrella del cine para adultos Mia Khalifa perdió su trabajo con Playboy después de defender a Hamás, mientras que toda la familia Hadid está recibiendo amenazas de muerte por sus comentarios.

Selena Gomez says she needs a break from Instagram and is going to delete her account ... after being blasted for her comments about the conflict between Israel and Palestine.

Selena posted and then deleted an IG story Thursday where she revealed her plans to get off IG, explaining ... "I'm done. I do not support any of what's going on."

The decision came only days after Selena posted about the Gaza war and then got dragged.

As we reported ... Selena spoke out Monday about the war in the Middle East, condemning murder and torture and saying, "That's what makes me sick. I wish I could change the world. But a post won't."

Selena's Israel-Palestine post was met with tons of hate online ... with folks accusing her of not doing all she can to help those in need, dragging her for trying to be a victim and blasting her for claiming her platform was useless.

As we've reported ... other celebs have faced backlash for their takes on the ongoing conflict ... former adult film star Mia Khalifa lost her gig with Playboy after defending Hamas, and the entire Hadid family is getting death threats.

An Australian woman accused of poisoning her ex-husband's family with death cap mushrooms has been charged with murder ... after officials say her deadly meal killed three of the four people who ate it.

According to reports, Erin Patterson hosted the ill-fated lunch July 29 at her home in Victoria, Australia ... serving a beef Wellington dish she cooked, which is alleged to have contained deadly death cap mushrooms.

Patterson allegedly served the poisonous food to her ex-husband's parents, sister and brother-in-law ... three of them died within a week of the lunch from symptoms police say are consistent with mushroom poisoning.

Meanwhile, the ex-husband's dad was hospitalized for nearly two months with a severe illness.

On Thursday, over three months after the meal in question, Patterson was charged with three counts of murder. She was arrested Wednesday, and on Friday she's expected to appear in an Australian court.

Death cap mushroom is one of the deadliest varieties of mushroom ... and it's found in Victoria, where Patterson lives and where she served the food.

For her part, Patterson has denied any foul play ... she told cops she prepared the beef Wellington dish using fresh mushrooms from a local supermarket and dried mushrooms from an Asian grocery store in Melbourne, about 85 miles from her home.

"I think people don't get to see how caring he was, how loving he was. He loved his players. he loved his team. He loved his school. And he was always giving back."

That's former Indiana University star turned college basketball head coach Steve Alford joining Babcock on the TMZ Sports TV show (airs weeknights on FS1) ... opening up on the death of his coach and longtime friend, Bob Knight.

Alford played for the legendary figure in Bloomington between 1983 and 1987 ... winning an NCAA National Championship as a senior. Steve averaged 19.5 points per game over his standout college career and graduated as Indiana's all-time leading scorer (Calbert Cheaney later surpassed SA atop the list).

Knight's accomplishments on the court are nearly unmatched ... he led his team to 3 National Championships, 5 Final Fours, and 11 Big Ten titles. He was named the AP Coach of the Year 3 times, and Big Ten COY 8 times. He was also inducted into both the Basketball and College Basketball Hall of Fame. Coach Knight won 902 games over 42 seasons.

For all his accolades, Alford says Bobby did just as much for the players away from the hardwood.

"[Coach Knight] was a mentor, he was a father figure. He taught us about life as much as he did about playing the game of basketball, which was immense. He was as good as it got on the court," Alford said.

Steve also told the story of Bobby's recruitment of him ... when he was Indiana's Mr. Basketball in high school in 1983.

"When he made his home visit to our home in Newcastle, he only gave me 4 promises," Alford told us.

"He said 'you'll play with great teammates.' I have incredible teammates. 'You'll play for championships.' That happened, both conferences and nationally. 'You're gonna get your degree.' That happened in 4 years, and 'you're gonna have a friend for life.' Those were the promises coach made."

Knight (as well as Steve's dad, who was a coach) left a huge impression on him ... so much so Alford obviously because a head coach, too. Alford, who was previously the head coach at UCLA, is now the HC at Nevada.

The General's family announced the sad news Tuesday afternoon.

"It is with heavy hearts that we share that Coach Bob Knight passed away at his home in Bloomington surrounded by family. We are grateful for all the thoughts and prayers and appreciate the continued respect for our privacy as Coach requested a private family gathering, which is being honored."

Duane "Keefe D" Davis, el hombre presuntamente responsable del asesinato de Tupac Shakur hace más de 25 años, finalmente tuvo su día en la corte después de dos retrasos.

Keefe D estuvo presente y esposado el jueves por la mañana en un tribunal del Condado de Clark, en Las Vegas, para hacer frente a su cargo de asesinato, del cual se declaró no culpable después de que le designaran a un defensor público.

Como informamos, el sospechoso de 60 años de edad se presentó por primera vez en la corte a principios de octubre, pero su abogado nunca apareció retrasando la lectura de cargos un par de semanas. La segunda audiencia se retrasó por el mismo motivo.

Después de la audiencia inicial, el fiscal del distrito Steve Wolfson dijo que se esperaba que Keefe se declarara no culpable del cargo de asesinato con uso de un arma mortal.

Recuerden, Keefe D fue detenido a fines de septiembre y las imágenes captadas en cámara lo muestran bastante calmado mientras es llevado a la parte trasera del carro policial.
