On September 22 (local time), the New York Post and other international outlets reported that Heslin’s husband, Scotty Dynamo, recently filed a “wrongful death” lawsuit in Clark County District Court against a Las Vegas hotel restaurant.
According to the lawsuit, when Heslin collapsed from cardiac arrest during his 35th birthday celebration at the restaurant, staff failed to administer any emergency aid. The family alleges that a female guest attempted to perform CPR but was stopped by employees, who also failed to use an on-site automated external defibrillator (AED). Staff reportedly even demanded that bystanders delete footage of the incident.
Heslin died a week later, on July 2, 2024. His husband and family expressed their grief, saying: “Michael was young and healthy. His death was a completely preventable tragedy.” They are seeking more than $30,000 in damages, including funeral expenses.
Michael Heslin was known for his roles in U.S. television dramas such as Lioness and The Holiday Proposal Plan.
