Police name brothel worker as victim in OKC fire

OKLAHOMA CITY (AP) — Oklahoma City police say 22-year-old Brooke Phillips, who worked at a Nevada brothel featured on an HBO reality series, was among four people found dead in a burning house earlier this week.



Oklahoma City Police Department spokesman Sgt. Gary Knight says Phillips and another pregnant woman died of gunshot wounds.



Knight says the state Medical Examiner's Office identified Phillips and 22-year-old Milagrous Barrera on Friday. A man and woman also found by firefighters who battled Monday's blaze at a house in Oklahoma City have yet to be identified.



Authorities say the fire was deliberately set and that they are treating the case as a homicide.



Phillips worked at the Moonlite BunnyRanch and appeared in HBO's "Cathouse."
