The death of Trevor Moore, co-founder of the sketch comedy troupe the Whitest Kids U’ Know, occurred unexpectedly more than four months ago, at the age of 41.
Moore died on August 7 from injuries sustained when he fell from a balcony in his backyard, two floors below, according to the findings of the Los Angeles County Medical Examiner-Coroner. According to Deadline, he suffered a fatal hit to the head.
Trevor Moore Cause of Death
Moore’s blood alcohol level was well above the legal limit at the time of his death.
The coroner’s findings make clear that the death was not the result of suicide. According to the report, investigators made their findings after reviewing footage from security cameras.
Moore co-developed and executive produced “Just Roll With It,” wrote and directed “Walk the Prank” for Disney XD, and created and hosted “The Trevor Moore Show” on Comedy Central, in addition to being a star in the New York-based WKUK group.
According to a 1995 feature in the Virginian-Pilot, the New Jersey-born comic got his start in show business at the tender age of 12, when he became the youngest published cartoonist in the world.
“Such a warped mind at such a young age! I loved the book!” Weird Al Yankovic reportedly said of Moore’s “Scraps.”
According to Deadspin, Moore produced a sketch comedy show for his local television station every week when he was 16, after having previously written weekly cartoons for newspapers in Virginia.
Trevor Moore and I once convinced a major studio to actually pay us to write something called “Farting Cat”. He was brilliant, a dynamo, conspiracy theorist, satirist, friend, husband, father, and, as he asked to be called in the event of his death, a local sexpot. Goodbye, Buddy pic.twitter.com/RqaqA7Hbrh

“We are devastated by the loss of my husband, best friend, and the father of our son. He was known as a writer and comedian to millions, and yet to us, he was simply the center of our whole world,” begins a statement issued by Moore’s manager on behalf of his wife and family shortly after his death. “This is a tragic and sudden loss, and we ask that you please respect our privacy during this time of grieving.”
