More from ER Dr. Megan Ranney:
Hi. ICYMI: This is not a “slip & fall”. This is not a minor concussion. This is MAJOR head trauma.
My condolences to Saget’s friends & family. I hope that they get answers as to what really happened. pic.twitter.com/DtrwEAN1xZ

PS: this doesn’t mean it was INTENTIONAL trauma, either.

With that said, former AUSA-SDNY Richard Signorelli tweeted that “something doesn’t make sense given his severe head injuries”:
No wrongdoing found. Something doesn’t make sense given his severe head injuries.
