An autopsy report revealed that Ray Liotta’s cause of death was due to cardiovascular disease.
Ray Liotta died in his sleep last year while filming the movie “Dangerous Waters,” in the Dominican Republic.
It was reported that the 67-year-old actor died as a result of atherosclerotic disease, which is the build-up of fats, cholesterol, and other substances in and on the artery walls.
Pulmonary edema, which is caused by the buildup of excessive fluid in the lungs, and heart and respiratory failure were also cited as contributing to his death.
“Judging by the post-mortem signs, at the time the body was removed and the autopsy was performed on May 26, 2022, at 03:22 p.m., death could have occurred approximately 8-10 hours earlier,” Dominican officials said.
Ray Liotta, who is best known for acting in the role of Henry Hill in the classic 1990 Martin Scorsese mob film “Goodfellas,” was found dead at his hotel in Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic in May 2022.
His body was later flown back to his family in the US. In February, he was honored with a posthumous star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame in Los Angeles. The event was attended by Liotta’s fiance Jacy Nittolo and his daughter Karsen Liotta, who accepted the award on behalf of her dad, expressing her pride in all his achievements.
I’m so touched to be accepting this honor on behalf of my dad. I couldn’t be more proud of him. He was a one-of-a-kind actor and the best friend, brother, and father anyone could ask for. I lucked out with you.
“If you have a Ray in your life, you’re lucky. Thank you for your work, and the imprint you left on me and all of those who love you. “Everyone deserves a Ray in their life,” she said.
