‘Storage Wars’ Star Dan Dotson Shares Regret Over Darrell Sheets’ Tragic Death

Darrell Sheets‘ suicide rocked the “Storage Wars” cast and crew … and one of the show’s main auctioneers, Dan Dotson, has a heartbreaking take on Darrell’s tragic death.

Dan tells TMZ … he was friendly with Darrell for the 15 seasons they appeared on the A&E reality series, but the two men were not close pals … something he now regrets.

Dan tells us … “Maybe if I’d been a better friend, I could’ve helped him. Seems he was going through a lot we didn’t know about.”

Dan and his wife, Laura — who also serves as a ‘Storage Wars’ auctioneer — were devastated to learn Darrell shot himself.

The couple attended Darrell’s celebration of life … and were shocked by how many people from the series — including 3 showrunners — reunited for the service.

As TMZ previously reported, Darrell was found dead at his Arizona home on April 22 in what the medical examiner later ruled a suicide.

The Arizona police officer who responded to Darrell’s home immediately knew who the reality star was when he found him dead … and officers were shocked when they realized what they had stumbled upon.
