    Nevada pimp who starred in HBO series found dead

    LAS VEGAS (AP) — Dennis Hof, a legal pimp who gained notoriety for an HBO series about his business and who has fashioned himself as a Donald Trump-style Republican candidate for the state Legislature, has died, Nevada authorities said Tuesday.

    An employee at Hof's Love Ranch brothel about an hour outside of Las Vegas summoned authorities a little before 11 a.m. Tuesday after Hof was found unresponsive and not breathing, said Nye County Sheriff Lt. David Boruchowitz.

    He declined to say where on the property Hof was found, and said people at the business were being questioned.

    "Preliminarily, there is no indication of foul play," Boruchowitz said.

    Hof, who turned 72 on Sunday, was the Republican candidate this year in a heavily GOP state legislative district. Ballots have already been printed in the race and it wasn't immediately clear how elections officials would handle Hof's death.

    Hof owned a handful of brothels in Nevada, the only state that allows them to legally operate.

    His Love Ranch brothel is where NBA player Lamar Odom was found unconscious in 2015.

    The brothel was temporarily shuttered twice this year by regulators who said Hof had failed to renew licenses and get proper permits for renovations.

    About 20 brothels operate in Nevada, mostly in rural areas. The state doesn't publicize how many are open, and most owners keep a much lower profile than Hof.

    In addition to his legislative campaign, Hof faced a push to outlaw brothels and had problems with local regulators in the two counties where he runs the licensed bordellos.

    Hof had also been accused of sexual assault on at least four occasions. The Nevada Department of Public Safety says it is investigating an allegation made in September but has released few details.

    Hof had denied any wrongdoing.

    The flamboyant pimp starred in the HBO adult reality series "Cathouse" and wrote a book titled "The Art of the Pimp," a play on Trump's book "The Art of the Deal."

    Hof ran for office in 2016 as a Libertarian but lost the race.

    Well now, I suppose I already have to take back my statement that I won’t vote again for any Dem. if this guy was my R candidate there is zero chance I’d vote for him.
