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

% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.


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.”

      So, he received his just rewards in the end. In the end, get it?

      • Don

        We got you all right. He he

      • FindtheTruth

        You are probably right. I hope for more unrighteous billionaires to suffer the same fate. You don’t go billionaire without pedigree, connections, blood type, lots and lots of ass-smooching and bending over for them and maybe a farm animal or two.

        • FindtheTruth

          It also seems that he got what he did to many people in a literal way.

    • VomitO

      At first I thought this was about another inheritor of an Oil Tycoon Fortune, Alex Jones.

      • LAYNALAND

        slanderous remark, Pal…good name for ya – ‘vomito’ – more vomitous material from your mouth.

        Alex did not inherit an oil fortune, dumb-dumb…he, actually, works for a living, like a good husband and father.

        L. :razz:

      • LAYNALAND

        It might have been psychotic jealousy on the part of his ex-girlfriend – he may have had a male sex partner and she found out about it…broke in while he was sleeping and put the nozzle of a small gun up his rear-end.

        Disgusting thought, really…but, that is what it sounds like happened in this situation…or something close to the same.

        I guess we all know now – having alot of money, does not guarantee life gets better – that is why we need God in our lives – our hearts need to be filled with God, otherwise, they are empty – we were meant to be filled with the Spirit of God – without HIM, we have no reason to go on – HE must be our reason, as material things cannot fill that void – it must filled by HIM.

        Very sad – and to think what his eternity will be like – even sadder.

        L. Those of you making jokes about what happened to him – it’s very callous and thoughtless – what if it were your brother that this happened to?

        • LAYNALAND

          correction – typo – ‘it must “be” filled by HIM.’ L.

    • InquisitiveMind

      My number one suspect is Michael Barrymore

    • captbob

      It is so sad when someone passes. Rich or poor there is normally somebody crying. My feeling to the family.

    • Arte Vespule

      What a pain in the a$$…..

    • Pink Slime

      Was he a sodomite like the negro one we have as imposter president?

    • MileHiLife

      Insert butt joke here…
      Oops :lol:

    • CrowPie

      Andy was an excellent cook and had fabulous taste in vino.

    • PackersGo

      :mrgreen: Betcha it looked like a candy apple… You know, the size of a apple covered in carmal, with nuts around it… :lol: Lets not forget the handle that held it… A baseball bat perhaps? :roll: :roll: Nice April fools day story… :roll: :roll: Must have just returned from a visit to see the President… :twisted: Or to the Senate or Congress…. :mrgreen:
