Violet Rain Passes Away

LOS ANGELES—Adult performer Violet Rain passed away today, her agent Dave Rock from Motley Models confirmed. Rain had been fighting for her life at an L.A. hospital. Her family, who had been staying by her side in the hospital since March 6, made the decision Thursday to allow doctors to harvest her organs, a source close to the situation told AVN. Though Rain had begun breathing on her own and was removed from life support last Friday, her brain activity was at a negligible level as of yesterday, the source said, noting that once an autopsy has been performed, Rain's body will be flown back to her home in Arizona for a funeral. “We are deeply saddened by Violet Rain’s passing,” Rock told AVN. “We will miss her sweet demeanor and amazing smile. Please keep her friends and family in your thoughts as they go through this tremendous loss of an amazing young woman.” The 19-year-old performer had appeared in about 40 scenes since the summer of 2018, including work for Digital Playground, Digital Sin, Zero Tolerance, Team Skeet, AMKingdom and Girlfriends Films. The LAPD is actively investigating the circumstances that led to Rain being hospitalized after reportedly being at a nightclub in Hollywood on the night of Sunday, March 3. “Despite what she was doing and despite what business she was in, she’s basically a little kid,” LAPD detective David Meza said. “So somebody should’ve been more responsible, but they weren’t. So whatever I can find out out ... I’m investigating everything.” Photo by Rick Garcia/@IndustryByRick.
