The shocked maid discovered the DJ from the Ellen DeGeneres show who shot himself in a hotel room in Los Angeles this week, the hotel management informed DailyMail.com.
Around 10.30 am on Monday, Stephen “tWitch” Boss, 40, a veteran executive producer of Ellen’s show, checked into room 249 at the Oak Tree Inn in Encino.
Manager Rakesh claimed, “He went inside his room and he never came out.”
Tuesday around 11:15 a.m., the maid came to check on the room. Although no one was present, his belongings were inside. When she looked in the restroom, she discovered blood all over.
She was terrified. This is the first time that has ever occurred here.
The 911 operator instructed us to check his pulse, but there was none. He was declared dead when the police and paramedics arrived.
No visitors or employees heard the gunfire, according to Rakesh, who asked to only be recognized by his first name.
‘Perhaps he did it on Monday throughout the day. It’s possible that no one heard it due of the busy, noisy road outside, he said.
Monday morning about 9.20am, Boss called ahead to see whether rooms were still available and then walked the few blocks from his house. He appeared “totally normal” and “calm,” according to Rakesh.
Rakesh claimed, “When we knocked on the door, there was no reaction.” His belongings were still in the room when the maid opened the door.
The manager added that Boss shot himself in the bathroom, and another employee corroborated this.
They claimed that he checked into the motel on Monday under his own name and that he was not found until Tuesday morning.
Workers described the situation as “very awful” and claimed that the man “shot himself in the head,” but no one heard the gunfire.
He left the house on Monday without his car, and when he didn’t come home by Tuesday — vanished over night — his wife hurried to report him missing.
On Wednesday morning, Boss’ family members arrived to care for his heartbroken wife and children at his six-bedroom Encino home, embracing his sobbing son as he raced out to meet them.
According to one, the family declined to comment.
Stephen is the father of three children: Zaia, 3, Maddox Laurel, 6, and Weslie Renae, 14, who was born in Alison’s previous relationship but was adopted by Stephen. The So You Think You Can Dance star and his dance teacher wife Alison, 34, met each other on the show in 2010.
According to a sign on the family’s front lawn, daughter Weslie is scheduled to attend Notre Dame University with the class of 2026, therefore the suicide has cast a shadow over her promising future.
She also participates in modeling for athletic gear and is a young influencer for companies like her parents’ Dick’s Sporting Goods. She also plays soccer for her school’s soccer squad.
Three days before his passing, the pair was enjoying their ninth wedding anniversary when they appeared on the show in November. They were content and optimistic about the future.
To commemorate the event, Boss and his wife uploaded a touching video of them dancing online.
He began working on Ellen’s show in 2014 and continued until 2022, when he was promoted to executive producer.
