A porn star who accused fellow adult actor James Deen of rape has been found dead at the age 31.
Amber Rayne, who had been in the industry for 10 years, passed away at her home in Los Angeles, a webiste that covers news of the porn industry, reported.
She is believed to have passed away ‘peacefully’ in her sleep, but the exact cause of death is not known.
It is believed that Ms Rayne, who was from Detroit, died on Saturday night or Sunday morning. An autopsy is set to take place at the end of this week.
None of her social media accounts suggested that anything was wrong
Director Stormy Daniels, told AVN: ‘She was a really good friend, and one of the best actresses and performers that I’ve ever had the pleasure to work with, and I’m just glad that I had the opportunity to work with her and call her a friend.
In a 2007 interview, she said: “Aside from my career I’m still what could be considered the average everyday girl.
Music is a rather large passion of mine and consumes a considerable amount of my time; whether it be dancing to it, playing my Les Paul, or hanging out listening to local bands music is usually involved.”
Rayne was one of 10 women to claim Dean sexually assaulted them while on set.
She claims Deen called her ‘bit*h’ in the middle of a sex scene, at which point he punched her in the face and began to have intercourse with her so forcefully that she was left bleeding.
