If you watched enough Kevin Samuels videos, he mentioned more than a few times that he was dealing with some health issues.
It still didn’t stop the conspiracy theorists from wondering if the woman he was last seen with and reported his death Ortencia Alcantara had anything to do with his death.
The answer, according to the medical examiner, is no.
Kevin Samuels died as a result of hypertension … eliminating any possible suspicious circumstances surrounding the 57-year-old’s death.
The Fulton County Medical Examiner’s Office just released findings into Samuels’ death, telling us he died due to hypertension — high blood pressure. The ME says, “Evidence of hypertension includes a heart whose chambers are thicker than normal.”
It appears Samuels was also taking a medication called Atenolol, because the ME notes in their findings that the medication is used to treat hypertension.
Samuels’ death is classified as due to natural causes.
TMZ broke the story, Samuels, who was known for his controversial — and sometimes not-so-appropriate — dating advice, died back in May.
In fact, Alcantara tried to save his life as best she could.
It’s clear to tell the woman who was with Kevin Samuels at the time of his medical emergency was desperate to save him, and those questioning whether or not foul play was involved in his death should have their answer … as you can hear in the 911 call.
We’ve obtained the audio from the call placed Thursday, the woman with Kevin tells the emergency operator she believes Kevin is experiencing an issue with his heart — possibly an irregular rhythm — while she continues to perform CPR.
The woman, who identifies herself as a nurse, says it’s her first time at Kevin’s apartment — and has trouble giving the 911 operator Kevin’s address.
As the call continues, the situation gets more desperate, the caller says he’s turning blue — and asks if the 911 operator can assist in calling his building’s front desk and ask if they had an AED in hopes to revive Kevin. However, the front office was closed.
Some people questioned if foul play was involved, but listening to the 911 call, it is hard to believe that Ms. Alcantara had anything to do with Samuels sudden passing and was doing her best to try to save his life in his final moments. It is heartbreaking to hear her tell Kevin to fight for his mom and daughter.
