Alexis body was discovered at her home Sunday morning. She was stabbed to death and there is an ongoing investigation. I was asked by Homicide Detectives not to post any news or tell anyone until next of kin was notified. Sorry, I had to "fib", but I was acting in the respect for Alexis and I am cooperating fully with the police.

If anyone has any information, please contact Las Vegas Metro Homicide at 702.229.3521 .

I want to mention one other thing... Some of her clients maybe contacted, they (Metro Police) have some understanding concerning that some of you might not want to be contacted because of "privacy". Speaking for myself, I ask that you guys give your complete cooperation. Metro wants to find the killer - they have no interest in the "hobby".

I want the killer found. I want him brought to Justice. The only satisfaction I have is this maggot piece of shit will face God on his Day of Judgment and that Cindy (her real name) will be present.

Amen.  I never did to have the pleasure of her company, but she was so sweet to me on the phone.  She even e-mailed me when I was in the hospital with get well wishes.  

I only hope that that maggot piece of shit resists the cops and they have to become judge, jury and executioner.  That saves the good taxpayers of Nevada alot of expense, and the bastard gets what he deserves.

I am so sorry, Cheese.  If I can do anything for you, you have  my #s.

Fortitude

That's horrible beyond words. My condolences go out to all that knew her.

This, along with a home invasion team targeting Phoenix escorts, we all need to be careful.

Peace to you,
Tanya

I did not have the pleasure to meet her. I hope metro really does follow up on this thing...This kind of thing is what has made me decide to relocate to Florida and shortly retire. The freaks I have come across lately have taken all the pleasure out of it and created an overwhelming sense of fear. What happen to all the sweethearts?

I'm curious whether the killer(s) was a client.........MfSD.

We all have opinions and how we deal with tragedies such as this...

However...

I think adding your web link in this thread was completely classless.

This is a time to share, care and express our grief in our own way. It's not an opportunity to garner more business. Your weblink reminds me of a promiscuous ambulance chasing lawyer handing out his business cards at the scene of a major traffic accident. Honestly, do you have anything on your web site that might console us?  

This is about as diplomatic as I'm going to get.

I got here by way of the SD board.  I feel awful.  A flaw in my personality is that I always try to play "Mister Fixit" instead of simply offering comfort. So here goes.

I strongly add my voice to cheesewiz when she requests that hobbyists cooperate in this investigation.  When a tragedy like this occurs all the rules change.  And I'm sure Homicide has better things to do with their time than pass along scraps of information to vice.

Cheese, I never knew Cindy and I don't know you, but my heart goes out to you.

As I said on the other board I'm so sorry.  This is just terrible.  It's pretty much all I can think about and I never even knew her.  It's making me really think about the hobby and such.

First, let me say that I am VERY saddened by Alexis' death. I heard about it from a friend who reads these boards all the time, and my heart is still beating fast and I'm probably in shock. My heart is sincerely broken for the friends and family who loved her and will miss her. It's horrible to think this creep might get away with this.

How I risk sounding insensitive is...

I get up on my soap box on the National Board (not so much lately) and plead my case for better screening and more cooperation between provider and hobbyist. I kept saying "Someone is going to have to die before we take this issue seriously"...and to my complete dismay that's what has happened.

I've said it 14,000 times and I'll say it 14,000 more times...
IT SHOULDNT BE THIS EASY TO FIND US. Ladiues: Why arent we disturbed that any idiot with ten fingers and a working knowledge of the alphabet can find us? Why are we so oblivious to the how DANGEROUS this is? Gentlemen: Why are you not MORE concerned for your ATF's and their safety? Why dont most clients cooperate with the screening methods?

I mean really, isnt this what this board is for? Providers get reviews and get rated and guys let eachother know who is a rip off and who is not. WHY CANT THERE BE A "TRUSTWORTHY" board? Why cant the guys rate us on who takes good care of their personal info and who doesnt take good care of it? I personally just dont understand why a guy would go see a girl who lets ANYONE in her apt or will go to ANYONE'S Hotel room. You wouldnt date a girl like that in REAL LIFE so why should this be any different?

For those who will say that this is not the appropriate time to bring this up then WHEN IS IT A GOOD TIME? A girl in New York was found dead, stabbed to death a month or so ago. Alexis was found stabbed to death. A year or so ago they caught some creep who was raping and torturing prostitutes and video taping it here in Las Vegas. I overheard two creeps talking about how they call girls out of the alternative newspaper here in town and are planning to rob them (I overheard it at a bus stop) AND NONE OF THESE GIRLS DESERVED WHAT THEY GOT not matter what profession they chose. So when is it a good time? How many more girls have to die before we "fix" this?

My heart is SOOOOOO HEAVY for Alexis. I never knew her but I heard good things about her. If you REALLY want to honor Alexis you will make sure something like this doesnt happen again.

I was really sadden when i read the message board today. Even though I never got the pleasure of meeting Alexis, I heard nothing but good things about her. My deepest condolences to everyone that had the pleasure of meeting her. My prayers go out to her family and friends.

PS: "Ladies please be careful and trust your frist instincts, It will never fail you"

I think you need to climb off your soapbox at least until more is known.  I haven't read yet anything about the suspect in this case being a client; maybe it was maybe it wasn't.  And in the case in New York that you mentioned, the man suspected of killing the provider was her boyfriend, not a client.

Also, I notice that you're trumpeting your 'End July with a Bang' special just a few threads down.  That type of promotion seems to be at odds with your position that it should be harder to find a provider.

The following appears on the L.V. Sun website under News Briefs for 7/8:

WOMAN FOUND DEAD IN HOUSE

Metro Police are investigating the death of a woman who was found by friends and neighbors about 10 a.m. Sunday in her home in the 5900 block of Carmen, near Washington Avenue and Jones Boulevard.

While the Clark County coroner's office will determine the official cause of death, it appears that the woman died of stab wounds, Metro Lt. Tom Monahan said.

The woman had not been positively identified this morning by the coroner's office.

Anyone with information is urged to call CrimeStoppers at 385-5555 or the homicide section at 229-3521.

I understand now. Let me reiterate that I am sincerely saddened by Alexis' death.

But I "get it" now. After reading this and the thread on the National Board I understand. No matter what happens, no changes will be made in the industry. You are right, we dont know if a client is responsible for this and we probably never will. I just dont see the police/press releasing that info when they are trying to get tourists to come here to spend money on gambling, shows (and though they wont admit it "women")...it's not very good publicity to admit providers are being killed here. There just isnt any incentive for hobbyists to help us out...no matter how much danger the girls are in. Got it. It took a while, but "I got it". Believe me, you'll never hear me try to change anyones mind about this again. :0(  

Sincerely sorry to have bothered you, and sincerely sorry if I offended anyone. My deep condolences to Alexis and those who cared about her and loved her.

I personally don't know Alexis or any other provider in Vegas for that matter, but I heard about this tragedy from a friend in Chicago who keeps track.  

I am very very sorry to hear about this and was personally wondering if she had any children or SO?  Will there be a memorial fund we can contribute to?  I hope that we can all pull together in a time of need to help those that really need it.  I know families are usually not very receptive to this business or the people involved, but is there anything we can do?

Take care and stay safe everyone,
Amber

She's been doing it on every board.  I guess she wants to advertise that she's a "sensative and kind provider" It makes me sick!

??

I am so sorry that any woman would have to go through such a horrific experience that led to her death.  It really makes me sick and when I read what a wonderful woman she was it really makes me want to cry.  I am from Boston and we had a scandal here with an sick individual that was robbing, beatting, and rapping visiting providers from Florida.  The business is difficult enogh without incidents like what happened to those girls from Florida.  I am so happy that they all walked away from that nightmare.  Us ladies in Boston are being more cautious now.  What a blow to hear that a horrible thing like this happened to a good hearted woman.  In the Boston incident all clients were verified, but I guess it was an ex-moderator that was stealing personal information from others to set up appointments.  I still don't know the whole story.  They Caught him and I hope to heavens that this sicko is caught too.  I hope he gets  what he deserves and feels as much or more pain that he made that sweet soul feel.  God bless her and her family and friends!

Needless to say this is very shocking news that makes my stomach turn into knots. I heard about the news a few days ago from a friend. My computor was down, so I couldn't get the info til now.
Sadly enough, whether or not this was a client, doesn't mean that it can't happen anywhere, anytime, whether you've verified someone or not (even though that lessens the chances greatly). You have to be careful ALL the time. People can be so deranged.

My prayers go out to her family and friends in hope that it may ease the pain and sorrow of this difficult time.
