The victim in the case reportedly suffered blunt force injuries, with the figure possibly facing various charges. Since then, fans have been trying to figure out what happened on social media.
Las Vegas Police Recently Shared Information About An Incident Taking Place On December 26
Currently, one fan-favorite figure from the show was reported as being in legal trouble. This came out after the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department shared details of a homicide case.
The incident reportedly took place on December 26 around 11:20 PM local time. Reportedly, an inmate was found “lying motionless inside a cell.”

Recently, KTNV shared that the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department shared that the inmate “was suffering from apparent blunt force injuries.” After being offered aid and calling for medical staff, the inmate was determined to be dead at the scene. According to an investigation, it was determined that the inmate and his roommate had a physical altercation.
The roommate was later identified as “41-year-old Chad Ollinger.” He has since been taken into custody, where he was reportedly “rebooked for Open Murder.” According to the Las Vegas Review Journal, Ollinger was in custody since an October 27 arrest.
This was on a charge of arrest of a fugitive from another state. Ollinger also reportedly faces a contempt of court charge, citing jail and court records.

Taking to social media, at the time, various fans wondered if the Chad in the story was indeed the Mystery at Blind Frog Ranch cast member or someone with the same name. Many fans commented that the details lined up between the two, with some citing reports claiming that the Ollinger cited in the records had the same middle name. Some comments included:
- “Sadly it is our Chad, same age, middle name, ect… Unfortunately it really is him.”
- “The middle initial is the same. Chad Aaron Ollinger was arrested in Pampa in 2025. Chad A Ollinger was booked in Clark County where the murder charge is pending.”
- “Wow. He does have a pretty unique name and if other poster is correct about it matching his age … that’s wild.”
