Socialite Casey Johnson, Johnson & Johnson heiress and fiancée of reality show star Tila Tequila, has been found dead at the age of 30
Johnson’s body was found by her maid who ran screaming “She’s dead” from Johnson’s Hollywood home. Many suspect the heiress who was recently cut off from her trust fund died from drugs and LAPD has ordered a full autopsy. She may have been dead for several days.
Casey, who was gay was engaged to bisexual reality star, Tila Tequila, 28. A heart broken Tequila announced her loss via Twitter. “Everyone please pray 4 my Wifey Casey. She has passed away.”
Johnson who was the heiress to the Johnson & Johnson empire was a hard partying Manhattan socialite before moving to Los Angeles and making headline with long time pals the Hiltons — Paris and Nicky.
Casey battled drug and alcohol addictions and her many attempts at rehab were failures. This past November, Casey was arrested on grand theft larceny, accused of breaking and entering the apartment of ex-GF model Jasmine Lennard.
Father Woody Johnson, owner of the NFL NY Jets, who had cut her purse strings to the family fortune in an attempt to get his wild child daughter to get sober is said to be devastated.
“I’ve known Casey since I was a baby,” Paris Hilton publicly mourned.
“She had a big heart and she was a good friend. I feel so sad, I don’t want to believe it.”
LAPD spokesperson officer Sara Faden said, “There was no evidence of any foul play, and the case is now being handled by the coroner.”
