The family of comedian Bob Saget wants a Florida judge to prohibit the release of any photos, video, or other records related to the investigation into his death, saying that doing so would cause them irreparable pain.
Saget's wife, Kelly Rizzo, and his three daughters filed a lawsuit on Tuesday in Orlando, Florida, asking a state judge for a ruling that would prohibit the release of any records from the medical examiner's office and the Orange County Sheriff's Office involving the probe into Saget's death.
Saget, 65, was found dead on January 9 in a room at the Ritz Carlton in Orlando. He had performed in the area the night before as part of a stand-up tour.
The medical examiner said last week that Saget had died from an accidental blow to the head, likely from a backward fall. An autopsy report showed that Saget had an abrasion on his scalp, a fracture at the base of his skull, fractures around his eye sockets, bleeding between the brain and tissue covering the brain as well as bruises to the brain.
