Reputable music exec David Bolno is a person of interest after a woman was found dead in his suite at a luxe Miami hotel.

Police have named a reputable music rep with ties to Drake and Post Malone as a person of interest after they discovered a 34-year-old woman dead at a hotel in Miami. Authorities are looking to talk to 45-year-old David Bolno in connection to Laura Lozano’s death. They claimed they found her face up in a bathroom of ​​a room at Miami’s Setai Hotel. Police, who confirmed Bolno rented the room under his name, said that they saw him leaving the hotel alone around 4:30 in the morning. However, he insisted he “wasn’t there when she died.”

The hotel security reportedly went to the room after calling Bolno nine hours after he left to inform him that his guest hadn’t checked out. Once they entered the room, security found the woman face up in a bathtub and “unknown substance in various areas inside the property.” Fire and EMS arrived at the scene around 1:22 p.m., roughly 20 minutes after security called Bolno.

Bolno said that Lozano was a budding musician and that he hoped to get signed. “She'd been there because she was recording music the night before. She's a client and she was going to sign a record deal with me I helped her make music,” he said.
