The Oklahoma City Medical Examiner’s Office determined porn star Jesse Jane died of an accidental fentanyl and cocaine overdose.
The famous adult star was found dead at a home in Moore, Oklahoma Jan. 24, 2024, after authorities conducted a welfare check, police sources told TMZ. Jane was 43 years old at the time of her death. Her body was reportedly found alongside her boyfriend, Brett Hasenmueller, who was also deceased in the same home. Hasenmueller’s employer grew concerned about his absence and called authorities requesting a welfare check be conducted, which is how the discovery of both bodies was made, officials told the outlet.
