Famous UFO Researcher Reportedly Dies Just A Few Years After Saying He Wasn’t Suicidal

David Wilcock, an American paranormal writer and media personality, has passed away at age 53, TMZ reported on Wednesday.

Officials in Boulder County, Colorado, reported that deputies were sent out on Monday after a 911 call was received at about 10:44am local time regarding an unspecified issue just outside the town of Nederland, according to TMZ’s report. Authorities stated that the emergency communications specialist who answered the 911 call believed the caller may have been experiencing a mental health crisis, and deputies responded to the scene and found a man outside a home holding a weapon, according to the outlet.

Within minutes of their arrival, officials said the man, alleged to have been Wilcock, turned the weapon on himself and was pronounced dead at the scene, TMZ reported. The outlet’s report comes years after Wilcock wrote in a December 2022 X post that he plans on “living” and is “not suicidal at all.”

“I plan on LIVING. Not suicidal at all,” Wilcock wrote in the social media post. “Just concerned about what happens when you prove God is real.”

Detectives with the Boulder County Sheriff’s Office responded to the incident and are now conducting a joint investigation alongside the Boulder County Coroner’s Office, and the official cause and manner of death will be determined by the coroner’s office, according to a Monday news release from the sheriff’s office, which does not mention Wilcock by name. Moreover, the coroner’s office plans to release the deceased’s identity after scientific confirmation, per the statement.
