Man investigated in Oklahoma City deaths, including that of ‘Cathouse’ star, is arrested

Man sought after death of ‘Cathouse’ star arrested

TULSA, Okla. — A man sought since several bodies were found inside a burned house in Oklahoma City — including a prostitute featured in the HBO reality series “Cathouse” — has been arrested.

Tulsa police say 32-year-old Denny Edward Phillips was shot three times Monday when he pointed a gun at officers. Authorities say he had been an early person of interest in the Oklahoma City deaths and was also wanted in the burglary of a Tulsa police detective’s home.

The Oklahoma County prosecutor says Phillips has been sought since four people, including two pregnant women, were found dead Nov. 9 inside the burned home. The victims included Brooke Phillips, a prostitute at the Moonlite BunnyRanch in Nevada that was featured in the HBO show.

It was not immediately clear when Phillips might appear in court or if he had an attorney.
