Sarah silverman details moment she found out her ‘violent’ grandfather allegedly killed her 3-month-old brother

Sarah Silverman’s brother, Jeffrey, was allegedly killed by her “violent” grandfather. The comedian, 54, opened up to Rolling Stone about finding out how her 3-month-old brother really died

while he was under the care of his paternal grandparents. “The story was that something happened with the crib, and Jeffrey’s little body slid and he got suffocated,” Silverman, who was born

after his passing, told the outlet on Sunday. EXPLORE MORE “But if you look back, there was never a lawsuit with the crib company or anything.” In the interview, the “School of Rock”

actress recalled her father, Donald, watching her 2022 musical, “Bedwetter,” in which she makes a joke about her brother’s death, several times before he decided to tell her the alleged

truth. “My dad says, ‘I always felt that he was crying or something, and my dad shook him,’” Silverman claimed. “‘He shook him in a rage and killed him.'” WANT MORE CELEBRITY AND POP

Instagram at the time, along with several photos capturing memories with Donald. “All the sisters, and grandkids surrounded him with love and singing and very dark f–ked up jokes this final

week.” She continued, “But ultimately, he wanted to be with his love, Janice, who we lost last Monday. No shiva- of [sic] you wanna do something please donate to @2ndnurture ❤️ He always
