Mirshojae’s staff told the LA Times their boss told them he was in fear of his life after the baseball bat attack. ‘They came and they beat him with baseball bats… They were some strangers that we didn’t know,’ they said. It was not clear if that beating was linked to his murder. The bio for Mirshojae on his Detox Woodland Hills website explained he graduated from the College of Osteopathic Medicine of the Pacific. He was board eligible in addiction medicine with more than 10 years of experience helping ‘thousands of patients achieve their goal of having a sober life’.
