Grandson Of Oil Tycoon J. Paul Getty Found Dead, "Traumatic Injury To Rectal Area" Alleged Source Of Death

In a story which we initially thought was an early April fool's prank, but subsequently turned out to be all too real, and all too tragic, yesterday afternoon Andrew Rork Getty, the 47-year-old grandson of oil tycoon J. Paul Getty who once was the richest living man in the world and member of the Getty trust, was found dead at his Hollywood Hills home, the latest chapter in a saga involving the Getty family which has seen kidnappings (including a tax-deductible ransom payment), mutilations, drug use and now, allegedly, murder.

How the billionaire heir of the Getty trust and son of Ann Getty and Gordon Getty (whom Forbes lists as the 869th richest person in the world and estimates that the Getty family is currently $5 billion) died is still murky.

According to NBC, a call came in from an unidentified woman at 2:18 p.m. who reported there was someone dead in the bathroom. A woman who was in the home was being questioned and was being cooperative, said Cmdr. Andy Smith, a Los Angeles police spokesman.

 

When asked about the cause of death, Los Angeles County Coroner's Assistant Chief Ed Winter told reporters that Getty's death appeared to be "natural or an accident." Cmdr. Andy Smith, a Los Angeles police spokesman added that "At first glance, it does not appear to be a criminal type of act. But that could change."

The LA County Coroner's office says Getty had not been feeling
well for months and had a doctor's appointment scheduled for
the following day

And here things get tabloidy, if not inaccurate: according to Gawker, Getty's ex-girlfriend, who called 911, apparently told the operator he had suffered a cardiac arrest, and TMZ's initial report contained a now-excised reference to a gunshot wound to the face. In an updated post, TMZ reports Getty's death involved a "traumatic injury to the rectal area" with "significant bleeding."

Additionally, the LA Times reports that Getty had sought a restraining order against the woman as recently as two weeks ago. TMZ provides further unverified details:

Our sources say Andrew and his ex-girlfriend have a storied history with the LAPD. Cops have been to his residence 31 times, mostly for domestic disturbances. Our sources say they have both frequently been under the influence of drugs during the police visits.

 

We're told the drugs cops found in the past were prescriptions.

 

As for their relationship, we're told he has a restraining order against her and she has been placed under a 5150 psychiatric hold in the past, after injuring cops when they responded to the house. We're also told she's allegedly broken into Andrew's house on numerous occasions.

A subsequent report by the LA Times gave the TMZ report credibility when it reported that "a law enforcement source told The Times that Getty was found naked from the waist down in the bathroom of his Hollywood Hills estate Tuesday and appeared to have suffered from some type of blunt-force trauma. It's unclear whether the injury was caused by a fall or something else."

So to summarize the initial patchwork of facts and evidence, the heir to the man who was once the world's richest died from what appear to be "natural causes", and it wasn't a "criminal act", but it did involves "blunt force trauma", most likely to the rectal area.

In retrospect it is not surprising that “the family has requested that members of the media and the public respect its privacy during this extremely difficult time,” a spokesman told the LA Times.

What is most surprising is that this latest incident to plague the J. Paul Getty descendants may not be the most lurid.

As Forbes recalls, "in 1973, another grandson of J. Paul was kidnapped by Italian gangsters who asked for $17 million in ransom and threatened to send a severed finger as proof. “I have 14 other grandchildren,” Getty told his son, who was pleading for the money, “if I pay one penny now, then I’ll have 14 kidnapped grandchildren.” As the negotiations dragged on, an Italian media organization received a lock of hair and J. Paul III’s ear in the mail. Getty eventually coughed up $3.4 million to buy his grandson’s freedom. Years later, J. Paul III suffered a stroke after heavy drug use in New York which left him paralyzed and practically blind for the rest of his life. Andrew Getty’s father, Gordon, also made headlines for all the wrong reasons when it was revealed that the opera enthusiast and San Francisco socialite had kept a second family secret for a decade."

I guess he's off to the island bunker to escape the fallout.

The narrative sounds like an April 1st version of the bankster suicides.

Don't get too comfy though Paul, the Russians have GPR in space no doubt and that means they know where you are and what you're doing, even deep undergound :-) enjoy your Long Island Iced Teas whilst you can.

That's why several Tycoons have given almost everything to Charity - with the Descendants being on the Board.

With the "court restrained" Ex onboard, could it be a reenactment of the "Girl with the Dragon Tattoo" Scene?
