Playboy Playmate Cassandra Lynn Hensley Found Dead, Overdose Possible
Playboy Playmate Cassandra Lynn Hensley has been found dead. Hensley, who appeared in Playboy as the magazine's Miss February 2006, was just 34-years-old.
"Cassandra Lynn Hensley was found dead in her friend's L.A. home Wednesday ... and police are investigating the death as a possible overdose," TMZ reported on Jan. 16. "We're told Hensley's friend found her floating in a bath tub. The friend then called police, reporting a possible OD. When paramedics arrived they could not revive her. Foul play is not suspected."
Although Hensley's last several tweets were simply Twitter horoscopes, which posted automatically to her Twitter account each day, a few tweets from earlier in the month were more telling.
"Feeling so small," Hensley wrote on Jan. 4.
One week later, Hensley spoke of hardship.
"It's hard to behave myself when people act like #jerks," she told fans on Jan. 10, adding hours later, "#life dealing with one #jackass after another!! I'm ready to go back."
Below is a brief self-written bio of Cassandra Lynn Hensley, which she posted on Model Mayhem:
"I was born in a small town in Utah. I enjoyed growing up there because I was brought up with small town values and it made me the person that I am today. I always had big dreams and knew Utah was not for me. At the age of 18, I packed my bags and moved to California to pursue my dreams of modeling. In the next few years with hard work and determination I started to get a little recognition for my efforts. I have appeared in several U.S. magazines, calendars, and T.V shows. and of course Playboy's February 2006 Centerfold.
I am motivation to become the best I can be. I consider myself adventurous and love new experiences whether it be traveling, snow boarding, scuba diving, or something spontaneous. I am a honest, fun, loving person who loves to meet new people. I am a true Leo. I love to love and be loved. My friends call me butterfly because of my Butterfly spirit."
