Biograpy of Domino Harvey

Domino Harvey was an English bounty hunter, actress, and model. Born on August 7, 1969, in London, England, she was the daughter of Lawrence Harvey, a renowned actor and Oscar nominee in the 1960s, and model Pauline Stone. Domino's name was inspired by the actress Dominique Sanda, whose nickname was "Domino." She was the younger sister of Sophie, her half-sister from Pauline's previous marriage.

Domino was the goddaughter of Peter Evans, a journalist and writer who introduced her parents to each other. Following Lawrence Harvey's death, Evans and Stone co-authored the book "One Tear is Enough." Initially, Domino followed in her mother's footsteps and became a fashion model for the "Ford" agency. However, she eventually decided to pursue a more dangerous career, despite having achieved nothing significant in the modeling industry.

In her late teens and early twenties, Domino was spotted at a London nightclub before moving to California, where she worked on a farm in San Diego. She volunteered at the "Boulevard Fire & Rescue" fire department near the Mexican border. It was during this time that she came across an advertisement for a group led by veteran Ed Martinez, who transformed ordinary people into skilled bounty hunters. Martinez became not only her mentor but also a close friend.

Throughout her life, Domino battled drug addiction and sought treatment for many years. On May 4, 2005, she was arrested at her home after a grand jury indicted her and her partner Charles Prestano, another bounty hunter, on charges of extortion and conspiracy to possess and distribute methamphetamine. She was placed under house arrest pending trial and faced a potential sentence of ten years in prison if convicted.

Tragically, on June 27, 2005, Domino was found dead in the bathtub of her West Hollywood home. She had stopped responding to Peter Dais, her sobriety coach. She had hired Dais to help her manage her medications and prevent relapse. On September 3, the Los Angeles County Coroner's Office revealed that Domino had died from a fentanyl overdose, an extremely potent opioid painkiller. Pauline Stone, Domino's mother, speculated that her daughter had been prescribed fentanyl after she fell during a walk with her dog in February 2005.

Domino's funeral took place on July 1, 2005, with notable attendees such as Tony Scott, Mickey Rourke, and Steve Jones. She was buried alongside her father at the Santa Barbara Cemetery. A biographical film about Domino's life, directed by Tony Scott and titled "Domino," was released in October 2005. Tabloids reported that the ending of the film was altered after her death, and Domino herself was reportedly unhappy with her portrayal. However, the film studio disputed these claims, stating that Domino had been involved in developing the project for nearly twelve years.

In 2005, Domino Harvey had a small role as an angel in the nightclub in the thriller film "Constantine."
