Porn star Kagney Linn Karter dead from suicide aged 36

Adult film star Kagney Linn Karter — who, according to friends, struggled with mental health — died of an apparent suicide last week, according to a report. She was 36.

Karter, rated as one of hottest pornstars, died on Thursday in Ohio, according to online records first reviewed by TMZ. The Cuyahoga County Medical Examiner’s office received her body that day from an address in the city of Parma.
A police department rep for the city told TMZ it appears Karter died by suicide.

A GoFundMe page remembered Karter for her beauty and love of dancing and singing.
“Kagney was kind. Kagney was generous. As cold as the world could be, Kagney brought with her a light,” two of her friends wrote.

But the fundraising page also noted that “despite all of her many impressive accomplishments and talents, Kagney struggled with mental health issues as the years passed by.”

“As alone as she undoubtedly felt within the confines of her own head, she continued to make an effort to show up for her friends and the community who cared about her,” her friends, who knew her through fitness studios, said. “She fought her own battles with the same tenacity and drive she showed in every other area of her life, with as much strength as she could.”

The GoFundMe, which is raising money for memorial costs, stated she “tragically took her own life” in her home.

She broke into the adult film industry in the mid-2000s before moving back to Ohio in recent years where she started a pole fitness studio.

During her career, Karter won multiple awards and was nominated for numerous AVN awards, according to her IMDb profile.
