RadarOnline.com spoke to the Los Angeles Police Department last week, who gave us the inside scoop into White's death investigation. Law enforcement arrived at her $5 million home on Friday to determine if there was any foul play in the actress' passing.

Betty would have turned 100 years old today. In probably the worst-timing cover ever, PEOPLE prematurely released their January 2022 issue just days before her death. Betty was featured on the cover with the headline: "Betty White Turns 100."

She eerily told the outlet, "I'm so lucky to be in such good health and feel so good at this age. It's amazing."
