RIP PAUL WALKER
The news on Paul Walker’s death just keeps getting more and more horrifying. CNN is now reporting that Paul was trapped in the Porsche Carerra GT for up to a minute before it burst into flames, engulfing Paul and his friend Roger Rodas on Nov. 30. Were they tragically burned alive?
How terrible. Paul Walker‘s last moments after his car crashed in Santa Clarita, Calif. were captured by security cameras across the street — but the car didn’t show any smoke rising from it immediately after the accident, suggesting that Paul and the driver, Roger Rodas, were burned alive. The disturbing video doesn’t show the actual crash, but shows the explosion one minute after the car hits a tree and light pole.Paul Walker’s Death: Was He Trapped In Porsche Before It Exploded?
The footage, taken from a building’s security camera on the opposite side of the street, doesn’t show the car crashing due to a wall blocking the street view, reports CNN. However, it does show a light pole and tree falling — and black smoke coming from the crash one minute later. The smoke becomes thicker after two minutes, eventually turning into gigantic flames.Does this footage mean Paul, 40, and Roger, 38, were being burned alive during those 60 seconds, or were they killed on impact when the car crashed? The tragic answer will hopefully be revealed when their autopsy results are released.
Paul Walker: Security Hold On Autopsy — Info On Death Kept Secret
TMZ reported Dec. 3 that the coroner’s office had completed Paul and Roger’s autopsies, but Lieutenant Fred Corral of the LA County Coroner’s Division told HollywoodLife.com EXCLUSIVELY that the autopsy won’t be done until Dec. 4.“We got information from our Assistant Chief [Ed Winter] that the autopsy will be complete tomorrow [Dec. 4]. It should be done and released tomorrow,” Lt. Corral says.
The case “has been placed on security hold,” Lt. Corral tells Us Weekly. The identification of the bodies had reportedly been delayed until Dec. 3 because the coroner had been waiting to receive dental records for Paul and Roger, according to TMZ. It’s unclear why the case is on security hold at this time.
“I’m not sure if the bodies have been identified or if the examinations were complicated. We’ve been extremely busy here,” Lt. Corral says. ”The only time we would put someone’s autopsy on
security hold is at the request of the police department or at our own request. That simply means that the case has not been completed.”
Our hearts go out to everyone affected by Paul and Roger’s deaths.
