The world of television said goodbye on September 18 to Billy Miller, an actor known for participating in some of the longest-running fictions on North American television, such as General Hospital, The Young and the Restless or All My Children.
The actor died at the age of 43 and although the details of his death were not made public at the time, the Travis County (Texas) coroner’s office issued the autopsy report today.
The American media Radar Online has published the exclusive that states that Miller took his own life, revealing that emergency personnel found the interpreter inside the bathtub of his home with a gunshot wound to the head.
This theory already came to light at the hands of TMZ: the portal published a few months ago that the actor suffered from deep depression aggravated by bipolar disorder, which suggested that Miller could have resorted to suicide.
Likewise, the interpreter suffered from a degenerative neurological disease, a progressive supranuclear palsy with no cure, which he was diagnosed with in 2021, and which leads to cognitive difficulties, in addition to movement, vision, speech and balance.
As the report indicates, several farewell letters were found at the scene. Likewise, the actor was holding a revolver in his hand with which he shot himself in the head, causing his own death instantly. Furthermore, “the post-mortem toxicological examination demonstrated the presence of ethanol, cocaine and their metabolites, diphenhydramine and amphetamine,” indicating that Miller would have consumed a series of toxic substances before his death.
