Following Anne Heche’s unexpected and tragic death, conspiracy theorists have flocked in droves.
While it has been widely reported that the actress died as a consequence of a horrific drug-induced vehicle accident that led her to go into a coma, some people just don’t believe it. The idea being promoted on TikTok and other social media platforms is that the actress was killed by her rescuers following the accident.
It’s a crazy hypothesis with no proof to back it up, but in the days since Heche was taken off life support, the speculations have been flying through the internet like wildfire.
Three questions regarding Anne Heche:

1) Why was she placed in a body bag while obviously still alive?
2) Why was she pushed down and restrained while trying to get up?
3) Wasn’t she working on some kind of pedophilia film before her death? #AnneHeche pic.twitter.com/clFHmKr5sg
There are several hypotheses floating around. The majority appear to connect to the fact that Heche portrayed some contentious parts as an actor. Some think she was murdered because of them.

Heche appeared in films involving child trafficking and a fictitious epidemic. One popular hypothesis on TikTok is that she was murdered for her involvement in the film Toxic Skies, which is about a fabricated epidemic intended to wipe out the world.

Most of the conspiracy theorists propagating the murder tale appear to be QAnon members, whose beliefs are mostly centered on pedophilia. “But that’s not the full story,” one report on the fake news website NewsPunch said of Anne’s automobile accident death.
Not at all. Anne Heche was approaching completion on a new picture on child sex trafficking, which was too close to home for Hollywood’s powers that be.

It went on, she had received many threats to halt working on the project. But she paid no attention. Anne Heche was recognized for her bravery throughout her life, and she resolved to see the project through to completion.
The claim that Heche died as a result of attempting to educate the public about pedophilia through her work is false. However, TikTokers are completely embracing it.

“She was Clintoned,” one user said on the social networking site, while another said, “I’m not a conspiracy theorist, but it seems that individuals in Hollywood who work in sex trafficking films end up dead.”
“She knew too much!!!” commented another TikToker.
While you may assume these ideas wouldn’t go too far, four of the top six videos that appear when you search that actress’s name on TikTok are, in fact, conspiracy videos.
Social networking can be a dangerous place. It’s crucial to remember that most of what’s put on the internet is utterly false and readily debunked. But, then, some folks simply adore fiction.
