This coroner’s report has listed the cause of death as “hypertrophic heart disease” with “effects of ethanol” cited as another significant condition. The document also deems the death accidental and says other conditions contributing , but not related to the immediate cause of death, included myocardial bridging of the left anterior descending coronary artery and the effects of ethanol. The 52-year-old – best known for his long-running role on The Young and the Restless – was found dead in his home in the neighborhood of Woodland Hills about six years ago. It was believed at the time that an excess of alcohol consumption had played a role in this tragedy… but the cause of his death was deferred by the Los Angeles County Coroner until an ” additional investigation ” was finished. St. John’s passing came more than four years after his son, Julian, died by suicide following treatment for mental health issues.

My heart beats to the music of our creation. “You are an integral piece of my personal spiritual puzzle, as I hope I am to yours. I love you…forever.” According to these newly-unveiled autopsy papers, Kristoff was admitted to Las Encinas Mental Health Hospital in Pasadena on January 26, 2019 for “threatening to hurt himself and alcohol abuse.” He returned to his Woodland Hills home from the mental health facility on February 1, just two days prior to his death, the report detailed.
