American Influencer Found Dead at Rosewood São Paulo Hotel

Authorities have opened a suspicious-death probe with forensic exams ordered to determine the cause.

Overview

  • Hotel staff found 40-year-old Hilde Ann Lynn unconscious in her room and SAMU declared her dead after they entered following failed calls and doorbell attempts on Sunday, May 31.
  • Police reported a vodka bottle, a fallen glass and multiple pills at the scene, and the 78º Distrito Policial has registered the case as a suspected death.
  • A man who identified himself to hotel management as Lynn’s plastic surgeon said she had been in Brazil for about three weeks for a cosmetic procedure and was taken days earlier to a UPA for a possible overdose.
  • The Rosewood São Paulo says it is cooperating with investigators while refusing further comment out of respect for privacy, and authorities have requisitioned exams from the Instituto de Criminalística and the Instituto Médico Legal.
  • Lynn was a known artist and influencer who posted as Jerry Gogosian and had roughly 145,000 followers, a profile that has intensified public and media interest while forensic and toxicology results remain pending.
