Hulk Hogan’s daughter, Brooke, posted on social media that medical and law enforcement officials have urged her to seek more detailed information about her father’s death.

Hogan was born Terry Bollea and died last month on July 24 at 71 years old.

“I've 100% gotten legit calls from professionals — from police officials to nurses that were supposedly with my dad on the day of his death telling ME I need to see body cam footage and I need to get a hold of the 911 tapes because they supposedly contain information that could potentially shed enough light to change the narrative we/I/everyone’s been hearing,” Brooke Hogan posted on Instagram.

Hogan was a well-known wrestling personality and professional associated with World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE) where he was matched against Andre The Giant, Randy Savage, The Rock, and WWE co-founder Vince McMahon.

He was rushed to the hospital from his Clearwater, Florida, beachfront home following a 911 call, and the medical examiner subsequently ruled he died of a heart attack.

The potential for records to disappear over time is what concerns Orlando, Florida, attorney Jason Turchin, who says Florida has a broad public records law that allows the public to access police reports, body camera footage, homicide investigative reports, medical examiner reports, and 911 recordings for a limited time.

"911 tapes, for example, may only be kept for two weeks to 30 days typically and get erased so securing these immediately after an incident can preserve that evidence in the event it needs to be used later on," Turchin told NTD on Aug. 27.

Brooke Hogan did not respond to direct requests for comment. She further stated on social media that she did not know who would be performing an autopsy on her father's remains.

"Any information I receive from an autopsy — if one happens — whether I believe it or not, I will be keeping private out of respect for my father," she said.

At least six WWE championships were awarded to her father. The wrestling icon was also inducted into the Hall of Fame.

His daughter went on to say that police officials and nurses felt so passionately about what they witnessed around Hogan's death, that they have continued to contact and push her to find answers.

"They are quite literally putting their careers at risk because they feel so compelled to do the right thing,” she posted. “The short of it is — it's all up to my dad’s wife and I have zero control. I can not do anything, my hands are tied, and I have no say in anything regarding my dad — even as his daughter. Those are the rules as I’ve been told."
