Veteran porn star Kagney Linn Karter has died by suicide. She was just 36 years old.
According to reports first published by TMZ on Monday, police officers in the city of Parma, Ohio found her deceased in her home there last Thursday. The Cuyahoga County Medical Examiner’s Office also confirmed to the outlet that they received her body that day from authorities in Parma.
As of Monday afternoon, a GoFundMe page has raised over $11,000 to help Kagney’s mother Tina with memorial costs, far surpassing an $8,000 goal. It was on that page — which was set up by the owners of a pole dancing fitness studio Ecole De Pole with sites in Cleveland and Akron — that we learned what happened. Her friends cite suicide as the cause of death. Tragic.

Kagney first got her start in the porn biz way back in the mid-2000s. After working in the industry for years, she left Los Angeles a few years ago and transitioned into life in Ohio. There, she worked as a dancer in addition to finding her spot in the pole dancing community.
Per that GFM page, Kagney had been a student of their pole dancing classes in the recent past. In fact, she was so good at it, and so determined to improve her skills, that she soon grew to become an expert. And she was instrumental in opening and running the studio’s Akron affiliate in recent months. Sadly, in a memorial post on the GoFundMe page, the studio’s owners cite “mental health issues” as ever present in Kagney’s life:
They went on to confirm their friend died by suicide at her home:
