Throwback Thursday: Remember Yurizan Beltran

Goodbye, Yurizan

Veteran porn performer Yurizan Beltran was found dead this week of a suspected drug overdose. She was only 31 years old and that is just way too damn short of a life. She made a ton of people really, really happy and wow, this type of ending to her life is just so unfair to all involved. There is no word currently on whether this was a suicide attempt or whether it was purely accidental but either way, a beautiful young woman swallowed pills and left our world way, way sooner than she ever should have.

Prescription pills get abused way too much in our current day and I can not help but think that this all never should have happened. It could have been avoided. Whatever she was trying to dodge by taking all of those pills just could not have been that unmanageable. I never got to interview her but I have only heard that she was a sweet, professional performer who made every shoot she was on easy. Life is great but wow, it still is so fucking unfair.
