The family of actor Lance Reddick is taking issue with a coroner’s conclusion on his cause of death. Earlier reports linked Reddick’s death to heart disease. But an attorney representing the family is saying that cause of death was not proved by an autopsy and is inconsistent with Reddick’s habits and fitness.
Attorney James Hornstein claimed Reddick was “the most physically fit person I’ve ever known.” He said the actor worked out daily at his home gym, doing extensive cardio and maintaining a strict diet. He said Reddick required “the availability of gym facilities” as a “contractual requirement” when working away from home.
