Las Vegas Day Trip #2: Heidi Fleiss’ Dirty Laundry in Pahrump
Continue reading…
Heidi Fleiss, the famous (or infamous, if you prefer; I prefer the former) Hollywood madam-to-the-stars who was convicted in 1995 for tax evasion (the pandering charges were dropped, as I understand it,) has branched out into the greater Las Vegas area, having moved to Pahrump, Nevada about a year ago.
