Dennis Wilson was the golden boy drummer for the Beach Boys. His good looks, energetic attitude and musical prowess made him one of the great drummers of rock and roll. True his band’s identity, he was also an avid surfer. But the Beach Boys drummer was also an avid drinker and on December 28, 1983, after a day of alcohol-use, Wilson dove into LA’s Marina Del Rey harbor and drowned in less than 15 feet of water. Byt what really happened? Forensic Pathologist Dr. Michael Hunter examines Dennis's autopsy report to dispel the rumors and reveal the real cause of the drummer's tragic and untimely death at the age of 39. We’ll drop a new Autopsy podcast every Wednesday. Next week, Dr. Hunter examines the tragic death of comedy legend John Belushi.
