What is Eric Bolling Jr.'s Cause of Death?
Boulder County Coroner's Office has completed its autopsy for the son of former FOX News Channel's Eric Bolling. Unfortunately, the exact cause of Eric Chase Bolling Jr.'s death is still unknown.
Though the Coroner's office has completed the autopsy, they have yet to determine Bolling Jr.'s cause of death. According to the authorities, they have to conduct further investigation on the matter.
"The autopsy into the death of Eric Bolling has been completed, however there is no known cause of death at the moment," the county coroner's office told HollywoodLife. "We are awaiting toxicology and autopsy results and should be able to present them within 6 to 8 weeks."

The 19-year-old was found dead on the afternoon of Friday, Sept. 8 in his bed in Colorado. TMZ has learned that his covers were over him while he was laid out in a "normal position."
When news of the apparent suicide broke out, he was initially suspected to have taken his life through drug overdose. However, authorities did not find any pills, bottles, or any drug paraphernalia in his quarters that would support the theory. He also did not leave a suicide note.
Bolling Jr., however, is believed to have undergone "emotional torture" because of his father's departure from FOX network. He was devastated by the publicity of his father's scandal.
FOX had to let Bolling Sr. go after the network learned that he had sent photos of his genitalia to female co-workers years ago. According to TMZ, he wanted to leave earlier than he wanted because he knew his son was already having a difficult time coping with the "publicity and embarrassment."
Bolling Sr. learned of his son's death just two hours after he sealed the exit deal with FOX.
