Nevada Brothel Owner Dennis Hof Found Dead at 72

Back in 2015, Lamar Odom was found unconscious inside the Love Ranch brothel in Crystal, after having overdosed on cocaine and other drugs. The incident left Odom hospitalized and in a coma for three days, during which time he suffered 12 strokes and six heart attacks. 

But now, just three years later, Dennis Hof – the owner of the infamous Nevada brothel – has passed away inside his own brothel. He was 72. 

According to TMZ, officials responded to a call for an unresponsive male at the Nevada brothel around 11 am. Though no foul play is suspected, witnesses say the fatal incident occurred after a campaign rally for State Assembly. 

“We had a wonderful event last night,” Hof’s campaign manager, Chuck Much, said in a statement. “He was having the time of his life last night. Grover Norquist was there. Ron Jeremy was there. He was given a rescue dog as a birthday present. He was having the time of his life.” 

In the meantime, based on Nevada election law, the legal pimp-turned-politician will still be listed on the ballot next month, but if he happens to win, the seat would be considered vacant.
