Harrowing body cam audio has emerged following Garrison Brown‘s suicide last month … documenting the moment cops discovered the body of the “Sister Wives” star.

In the audio, Flagstaff PD officers enter Garrison’s apartment, where they discover the reality TV star deceased in his room. One officer notes he moved a gun found on Garrison’s lap so medics could get access to the body. However, he mentions the weapon was unloaded when he moved it, suggesting someone else touched the gun before they arrived.

The cop asks someone to alert the medical examiner. Garrison was long deceased when his body was discovered. While it appears to be suicide, no note was recovered.

One bullet casing was recovered, however.

The officer notifies Garrison’s roommates about the TLC personality’s death. Unfortunately, one roommate, Cheyenne, learns the news during a phone call.

She breaks down in tears, sharing with the officer she heard something like a pop the night before … but didn’t realize it was a gunshot. Cheyenne recalls Garrison confiding in her about his struggles with alcohol. She says regretfully … “I’m sorry I didn’t check on him last night.”

Garrison’s other roommate, Addison, also learns about the suicide over the phone. Addison is audibly upset, and also shares Garrison was struggling with alcoholism and depression.

According to Addison, Garrison was intoxicated the night of his suicide.

Garrison is survived by several brothers and sisters, as well as mom Janelle and dad Kody.

Angie Harmon‘s beloved beagle Oliver was shot and killed by a deliveryman over the weekend, and cops have already concluded he was justified, but they won’t say why.

TMZ has made repeated calls to the Charlotte-Mecklenburg Police Dept., asking them why they concluded the deliveryman acted in self-defense, but all they said was, “… a delivery driver arrived at the residence to deliver consumable goods. The driver told officers that a dog attacked him while he was at the residence and that he defended himself by firing a single gunshot, striking and mortally wounding the dog.”

The police told us the case was closed, but they refused to release the deliveryman’s statement or alleged injuries. They would not provide any specific narrative as to what the dog did to show aggression or why it was self-defense.

Angie’s lawyer, John Buric, tells TMZ, her 2 dogs were outside in the front of her house when the deliveryman arrived. Angie was upstairs putting food in the squirrel feeder and her kids were in the backyard, when they heard a gunshot.

Buric says Angie and her kids rushed to the front of the house and found Oliver lying there in a pool of blood. Buric says Angie told him the deliveryman was “braggadocious,” repeatedly saying, “Yeah, I just shot your dog.”

Angie insists the deliveryman had no rips on his clothes, no scratches and no bite marks. Buric says he knew Oliver and the dog was friendly and docile.

Joe Flaherty -famoso por “Happy Gilmore” y “Freaks and Greeks”- ha muerto… su familia ha confirmado.

La hija del actor –Gudrun- dio la triste noticia, diciendo que su padre falleció el lunes después de una breve enfermedad. Ella no reveló qué enfermedad padecía ni dónde exactamente murió… no se compartieron más detalles.

Los amigos famosos del actor se habían unido recientemente para recaudar dinero para proporcionarle atención las 24 horas del día a la leyenda de la comedia, y su hija sirvió como su única cuidadora.

Ahora Gudrun le está rindiendo homenaje a su difunto padre, describiéndolo como un hombre extraordinario con una pasión por los clásicos de Hollywood, muchos de los cuales disfrutaron en sus últimos meses.

Ella dice: “Su ausencia ha dejado un vacío en mi vida que en estos momentos me parece insuperable. Mientras intento atravesar este proceso de duelo, me consuelan los recuerdos que compartimos y el increíble impacto que tuvo en los que le rodeaban. Su espíritu, su humor y su amor formarán parte de mí para siempre”.

Joe protagonizó “SCTV” junto a John Candy, Catherine O’Hara y Martin Short, y era conocido por sus imitaciones de famosos como Kirk Douglas, Richard Nixon y Art Garfunkel, entre otros. Entre 1999 y 2000 Joe protagonizó la comedia dramática de Judd Apatow “Freaks and Geeks”, en la que interpretaba a Harold Weir.

También apareció en la película de Adam Sandler “Happy Gilmore”, en la que interpretó un pequeño, aunque memorable, papel de unu golfista que estropeaba constantemente el juego de Happy.

A Joe le sobreviven sus 2 hijos, su ya mencionada hija, y un hijo, Gabriel. Tenía 82 años.

Tori Spelling broke the news to Dean McDermott she had filed for divorce right in the middle of her podcast, and — to say the least — it’s super passive-aggressive.

The “Beverly Hills, 90210” star called Dean on her “misSPELLING” podcast, and everyone could hear her end of the convo. She says he was working when she hit him up, and dropped the news she had filed. She kinda minimized it at first, saying the filing was just a formality, but then it got real.

Tori said it was only right she file first because he talked about sex and other intimate details in their marriage to the Daily Mail. It’s clear she was angry he had done it, and — although you only hear her end of the conversation — it seems Dean wasn’t happy she beat him to the courthouse punch.

As for why you don’t hear Dean … well, it’s a crime in Cali to secretly record someone, so instead you just heard her voice.

She bizarrely ends with, “Love you.”

La estrella de “Boardwalk Empire” –Michael Stuhlbarg- fue atacado por un vagabundo con una roca, según ha confirmado TMZ.

Fuentes policiales nos dicen que el actor estaba haciendo footing en Manhattan el domingo alrededor de las 7:45 PM cuando de repente sintió un golpe en la parte posterior de su cabeza.

Nos dicen que cuando miró hacia abajo, se dio cuenta de que una roca yacía a su lado. A pesar del shock, nuestras fuentes dicen que Michael no perdió el tiempo persiguiendo al agresor, es decir, hasta que las autoridades llegaron a la escena y fueron capaces de manejar el resto.

El presunto agresor fue identificado como Xavier Israel (27 años), con un testigo afirmando que lo observó recoger una piedra y lanzarla a Michael para corroborar la cuenta del incidente.

La policía dice que Xavier fue detenido sin incidentes y ha sido fichado por asalto.

Kim Zolciak and her daughter Brielle Biermann are suffering a luxurious loss — failing to make payments on a Range Rover means they’ve now been ordered to hand over the keys … TMZ has learned.

In new court documents, obtained by TMZ, a judge ruled against the reality TV stars, granting Ally Bank the right to repossess their Range, after the bank sued BB and KZ in December for failing to meet the terms of their sales agreement.

The judge issued the order Wednesday … making the 2019 vehicle immediately available for repossession.

The ruling comes 3 months after the bank sued the Bravo celebrities, claiming they failed to make the $1,903 monthly payments on the car — which was mainly driven by Brielle. But Kim and Brielle were both named in the lawsuit, which stated they owed $83,969.35 on the car.

It’s no secret the family is experiencing money problems … with multiple lawsuits currently pending and the IRS coming after Kim and her estranged hubby, Kroy Biermann. The couple even slashed the price of their Georgia mansion again by a million bucks back in January as they tried to dig themselves out of this financial hole.

In fact, this isn’t even the first car the Zolciak-Biermanns have had to fork over. Remember, Kroy was ordered to give back his Rolls-Royce after failing to make the monthly payment on the $400,100 SUV.

Jussie Smollett will have his day in court over his appeal of his criminal conviction — in fact, he’ll be able to make his case in front of the highest court in the land … of Illinois, that is.

The actor just scored a huge W Wednesday — ’cause the Supreme Court of Illinois ticked his case off as one they are open to hearing … in other words, his appeal to the State Supreme Court is approved, and the justices for this court will weigh in on this saga once and for all.

Remember, Jussie has been appealing his conviction pretty much ever since it came down way back in 2021 … when a jury found him guilty of lying to cops about a hate crime he claimed he’d been victim to.

Jussie was defiant after the verdict came in — and while he was sentenced to 150 days in jail … JS only served 6 days behind bars before he was sprung as his appeal worked its way through the court system.

There were some ups and downs before this big decision … as we reported, he was handed a loss in an Illinois appeals court when he first asked them to look over the case, with a 3-judge panel upholding the conviction and finding that the jury was justified in their decision.

Of course … Jussie appealed that decision, throwing a Hail Mary in hopes that the Illinois Supreme Court would hear him out — and now, they’ve signaled they’re willing to do that.

You’ll recall … Jussie’s whole argument here on why his conviction should be tossed is based on his claim that he had a deal with the prosecutors who were first handling his case, which he says explicitly stated he wouldn’t be prosecuted if he signed up for their terms.

At the time, all Jussie was asked to do was forfeit a bond he’d paid … and do community service — and he says he’s upheld his end of that bargain. Afterward, though, a special prosecutor came aboard and put him under the gun again … which Jussie calls BS.

The special prosecutor, however, said the deal Jussie thought he’d struck with the previous team did not, in fact, protect him from further charges … and he also argued double jeopardy doesn’t apply in this case. It’s all very technical, but the special prosecutor was asking the State Supreme Court to reject his bid.

Jon Stewart tugged at heartstrings when he tearfully talked about his dog dying, and folks opened up their wallets … donating 5 figures to the animal shelter he shouted out during the emotional ‘Daily Show’ segment.

The comedian got emotional Monday, breaking down over the death of Dipper, his Brindle pit bull, and viewers were so moved they started sending money to Animal Haven, the NYC no-kill animal shelter where Jon first met the pup.

Tiffany Lacey, the shelter’s executive director, tells TMZ … Animal Haven has raised almost $25,000 in donations since Jon mentioned the shelter in his tribute to Dipper.

We’re told the money’s pouring in from more than 500 new donors … and the funds will help the shelter pay for general care of their animals, plus operating support, vet care, food, staff time, and dog walks.

Remember … Jon said he got Dipper from Animal Haven about 12 years ago when his kids were raising money for the shelter … adopting the dog on the spot after being introduced. The pup was missing a leg after being hit by a car in Brooklyn.

Tiffany tells us the wave of donations is coming at just the right time for Animal Haven … she says the shelter is at full capacity with more than 100 rescue animals in their care, including 3 dog moms who recently gave birth to 20 puppies.

In addition to financial commitments, we’re told Jon’s monologue has spurred some folks to inquire about adoptions … and Animal Haven is so grateful for everyone reaching out.

Tiffany says Animal Haven’s reached out to Jon too, thanking him and offering their sympathies and condolences as he grieves his beloved companion.

It’s hump day at TMZ — and while we’re only halfway there … we’re full throttle on all our TV shows!

Starting on ‘TMZ Live’ … we talked about the legal war brewing between Taylor Swift and her private jet tracker, Jack Sweeney, who just fired the latest arrow across the bow at her.

Taylor’s team started this fight by threatening legal action if this young guy kept posting her locations across the world — but now, his own lawyers are firing back … saying he ain’t doing anything illegal — and that if they have a bone to pick, they better start getting specific.

Over at ‘TMZ on TV,’ we dove in on Donnell Rawlings’ spat with fellow comedian Corey Holcomb at the Laugh Factory this weekend … where they got into a huge shouting match.

A lot of insults were hurled back and forth … and in the end, Donnell held his ground.

Finally on ‘TMZ Sports,’ we talked about new updates in the Kansas City shooting case.

The doors to “Stranger Things” will remain slightly ajar after its final season, but not for a pesky Demogorgon … just for normies to get a chance to own a piece of the Byers’ home.

Yes, it’s true, you can now invest in a piece of Netflix history — that is, if you’re willing to drop a little dough. Allow us to explain, ’cause it’s actually pretty neat, especially if you’re a big fan.

An investment as small as $100 on the real estate platform, Arrived, will snag you a share in the Fayetteville, GA, home featured in external-facing shots of the Byers’ home, where some key scenes were set in the first season … in particular the alphabet/holiday lights on the wall featuring Winona Ryder.

Shares will be available to anyone while supplies last, and shareowners will earn rental income generated by the property on a quarterly basis.

That’s an Eleven out of ten effort by the owners to cash in on the real estate market!!

The vacation rental will be decorated using funds from the shares, and the owners are hoping fans can chip into the renovation process to pay tribute to the original show setup … with some nostalgic 80s-inspired Easter eggs dotted throughout.

Upon completion, fans will be able to book a stay at the property … where they can hang out and listen to vinyl records in Jonathan’s room, play D&D in the den and explore the 6-acre property on old-school BMX bikes.

We broke the story … the home sold in 2022 when an investor made a cash offer above the $300k asking price. Now, that investor is seemingly trying to capitalize on what they paid by getting others to chip in for a co-op-type deal.

From the “Upside-Down” to “up-for-sale,” … here’s your chance to get in with some Hawkins history.
