Over the past weekend, we broadcasted the sorrowful news of the self-inflicted demise of Ric Flair’s stepson, Sebastian Kidder. This tragic incident occurred during the afternoon hours of Saturday.
It has been revealed by TMZ that prior to this devastating act, Sebastian Kidder reached out to his birth father with a message.
According to a representative of the Gwinnett County Police Department, Ryan Winderweedle, Kidder sent a text to his father, Paul, around 4:00 PM EST. Alarmingly concerned, his father responded by calling 911 and requesting a welfare assessment. Upon their arrival, the police officers discovered Kidder’s lifeless body, the cause being a lone gunshot wound.
Further examination of the scene led to the unearthing of an envelope resting on a table in Kidder’s room. Inside, investigators found a note. A Springfield Armory handgun was also retrieved from the location.
We stress the importance of reaching out when in a crisis. If you or someone close to you is grappling with overwhelming emotions, never hesitate to seek assistance. You can connect with help via a call or text on 988 or through an online chat at 988lifeline.org.
Our heartfelt condolences go out to Ric Flair, Wendy Warlow, and to everyone who held a close relationship with Sebastian Kidder.
