Basketball and reality TV star Lamar Odom was reportedly fighting for his life in a Las Vegas hospital on Wednesday after he was found unresponsive at a legal brothel, where employees said he used cocaine and a sexual performance-enhancing supplement, a sheriff said.
He was unconscious with white stuff coming out of his nose when 2 different people at the Love Ranch South dialed 911 to get him medical assistance.
The Nye County Sheriff’s Office just released the recordings from 2 employees of the Nevada brothel. They both described a white/pinkish substance running out of his nose and mouth.
The male caller was Richard Hunter, media director of the ranch, and he told the operator Lamar had cocaine on him on Saturday. He also said Lamar was taking heavy doses of the herbal Viagra substitute called Reload.
TMZ broke the story … doctors determined there was cocaine in Odom’s system when he got to the hospital Tuesday afternoon.
The sheriff says there’s a possibility Odom could be charged for drug possession.
The callers also said Odom had taken as many as 10 tablets of a herbal sexual enhancement supplement, Wehrly said.
Love Ranch owner Dennis Hof said earlier that, during his three-day stay, Odom had been taking large amounts of “herbal Viagra”, a non-prescription product which can dramatically lower blood pressure and interact with other medications.
The sheriff’s department obtained a search warrant so that it could test Odom’s blood, Wehrly said. The sheriff said he could face drug charges if the investigation determines he was using cocaine.
