The "Sultan of Sleaze" Found Dead

Paris Hilton sultanofsleaze.jpgDavid Hans Schmidt, dubbed the Sultan of Sleaze for his involvement in various sex tape shenanigans, who was currently under house arrest for a plot to extort more than $1 million for wedding photos taken at TomKat's wedding, was found dead (of an apparent suicide) in his Phoenix home Friday afternoon, according to the AP. In addition to the TomKat wedding photos, Hans Schmidt was also supposedly involved with brokering deals for the contents of Paris' storage locker, the Colin Farrell/Nicole Narain sex tape and, of course, the instant classic, the Screech sex tape.



Cruise's lawyer, commenting on the discovery, says that Cruise "is not personally involved in this, as he is in Germany" shooting Valkyrie.

The scientologists get rid of those who would cause them or their members trouble. It wouldn't be the first time they caused someone's death. I heard the Tom Cruise photos were very damaging to him.

Okay, so this is just plain creepy. I'm not saying Scientology was the direct cause of this mans apparent suicide.. but scientology is cult-ish.. If you insult or slander one of their kind, you make an enemy of all of them. .. However, with all of the crap the man is going through, suicide would more than likely be the cause. *shrugs*

This is not the kind of guy who commit suicide. I bet he never felt any kind of guiltiness.

OMG!!!! I was just driving down the PCH in Malibu, and I was stuck in traffic for like 2 hours trying to get up the road to see Queen B's new house. I got about 3 miles from the road up on PCH when I got to an accident. Queen B was all bloody on a stretcher and there was a body bag on the other side of the car. I'm like totally freaking out. Please pray for her. OMG. OMG. OMG.

The wedding photos were all over the net and in one of the tabloids either people or Us weekly. so, why would Tom care? unless something else was on the photos.

It doesn't seem or sound like a suicide at all. Something happened... but I believe this was not suicide. I could have been anywone... including Tom, even if he was in Germany. Of course they personally won't do things like that. The job is for another else, isn't it... but it could've been anyone at Hollywood.

Schmidt was a dirt bag!
Live freaky - die freaky.

I don't care if the Thetans or Satans got to him.
Same thing, actually.

I'm just a little creeped out by Tom Cruise, lil look-alike Suri and the Scientology cult. I believe Tom's behind this somehow- just needed to get this guy out of the way. (Sorry, about mentioning Suri, she does look like my niece!)

I highly doubt it was suicide and if it was I bet he was brainwashed by ZENU himself!
