CALIFORNIA, LOS ANGELES: Beloved DJ and Dancer Stephen 'tWitch' Boss was found dead in Oak Tree Inn, LA, with a self-inflicted gunshot wound on December 13. His wife, Allison Holker Boss, confirmed his shocking death in a statement, "It is with the heaviest of hearts that I have to share my husband Stephen has left us," Yahoo reported on Wednesday. However, she did not mention his cause of death.
Meanwhile, since his death, online sleuth hounds have come up with their own theories trying to figure out why the former DJ and executive producer on 'The Ellen DeGeneres Show' mysteriously took his own life. One such popular theory based on some of the accounts he followed on Instagram was that he had allegedly invested heavily and lost big in cryptocurrency. But what added to the fire to the fuel was after, actor Columbus Short shared his own theory implying the famed DJ tWitch may have “invested in something that took his whole life savings.” But despite these claims, a source stated, "Stephen was not experiencing any sort of financial hardship in the time leading up to his suicide."

On Wednesday, Columbus who knew Stephen through the dance world posted a video where he told his followers, “You don’t know what people are going through. You know, people made investments. People knew a lot of things,” reported New York Post. He continued, “This is just a theory … people are awful. tWitch was amazing … is still amazing. His legacy shall live on. But, what if you invest in something that took your whole life savings? Possibly. Yeah, it gets rough.” “I don’t want to speak too much on it,” he said.
Columbus then proceeded to name Tracy Christian, who is the owner of Hollywood’s only black talent agency claiming owed him money. “I’m not going to kill myself. Pay me my money,” he demanded. However, a source close to the late 40-year-old said “there is absolutely no truth” to Columbus's unsubstantiated allegation, reported New York Post. Another source also reported the allegations as false, claiming the former contestant on 'So You Think You Can Dance' was not experiencing any sort of financial trouble in the time leading up to his suicide, reported TMZ, adding that their law enforcement sources say no one from in the family has also mentioned Stephen was facing was any such financial hardships.
