More than 20 former employees and Hof's associates speak on camera for the first time reveal a world of bullying, humiliation, manipulation, murder, sexual assault including rape and the media firestorm around the near-death experience of former professional basketball player Lamar Odom after a reported $75,000 for a four-day party binge with two prostitutes.
The docuseries includes never-before-seen footage and personal photos of former sex workers and exposes a far more complicated and sinister legacy for the owner of the Moonlite Bunny Ranch than the carefree image portrayed on television up to this point and the political posturing of the self-styled "Trump of the Pahrump" (keep reading for details of how his political career ended).
