Former Senate Candidate Found Dead in Hot Tub After Suffering Heart Attack: 'Maine Lost a Character'

[Demovictory9]

Max Linn — a former Maine Senate candidate who made headlines when he was dubbed the state's "COVID patient zero" by a former aide — died in a hot tub after suffering an apparent heart attack Saturday, his lawyers confirmed. He was 62.

Linn, who ran for a seat on the U.S. Senate in 2020 as a conservative Independent, was a retired financial planner and Bar Harbor resident.

Linn finished that race in last place, running as a supporter of former Republican President Donald Trump after having moved to Maine from Florida nearly 5 years prior.

The news of Linn's death comes on the heels of a dispute with former campaign staffer, Matt McDonald. Linn is accused of pulling out a gun on McDonald in October during a dispute about cryptocurrency, the Bangor Daily News reported.

1. It may be that he emerged from the hot water too quickly

One must emerge slowly from hot water so as to not suffer electrical problems in the heart

2. Do Tell.

I’m off to google this as I was hoping for a hot tub for the back yard.

4. It can happen to more people than is popularly believed

High school athletes.

Rise slowly an inch or 2 at a time. Let the shoulders cool. Then another 1-2. Then we come to the key part. the heart itself. Slow and the water is across the level of the heart. Wrap a heavy towel or something if air is less than temperate.

3. I hope the hooker is OK.

5. The character was a looney toon.
