RJ Mitte (Walt Jr) has passed 😥

Wow, I was shocked to hear this. They are saying it was suicide. So sad. He was only 34 years old. RIP, Flynn ❤️

He committed suicide? I couldn’t find a cause of death reported anywhere

TMZ quoted an anonymous county official and the entire sub is just running with it. This is way too early to be saying this sort of stuff. The body is barely cold and won't have even been properly examined yet and already I see him being called the next Robin Williams.

TMZ sucks ass for a lot of reasons but unfortunately they are almost always correct in celebrity causes of death

They get Robin Williams so wrong, over and over again. Yeah, he had depression at points, but it was one of the worst cases of Lewy Body ever seen by the examiner at autopsy that caused him to do it. It doesn’t matter how many times the family tries to bring attention to it, either.

Its not officially reported yet. I'm gonna wait till they decide to come out with it. Its the families business.
