Shocking News of Jim Irsay's Passing

In a shocking twist, new details have emerged about the death of Jim Irsay, the iconic owner of the Indianapolis Colts, who tragically passed away at the Beverly Hills Hotel in May.

Unveiling the Cause of Death

The Washington Post recently obtained Irsay's death certificate, revealing he died at the age of 65 from cardiac arrest, linked to acute pneumonia, chronic atrial fibrillation, and cardiac arrhythmia on May 21.

Dr. Harry Haroutunian, the addiction specialist overseeing Irsay’s care, confirmed to authorities that the death was natural, leading officials to forgo an autopsy after a thorough investigation showed no signs of foul play.

Concerns Over Prescribed Medications

However, some sources have raised alarms regarding the potentially excessive prescriptions of opioids and ketamine by Dr. Haroutunian, who had been working with Irsay for over a year amid his public battle with addiction.

Dr. Haroutunian expressed deep commitment to Irsay's care, stating, "I dedicated 18 months of my life to try to care for him ... as a brother. We did everything we could to make him as comfortable as possible."

Revelations of Past Overdoses

Irsay's troubled history included at least three overdoses since 2020, one of which was reported in 2023 but denied by Irsay himself. Reports suggest that during these times, the Colts franchise opted to conceal the truth, instead attributing his absences to a "severe respiratory illness."
