The two victims of Monday’s shooting at a Las Vegas law office, identified as an attorney and his wife, were new parents who were allegedly killed by another Las Vegas attorney.
The incident occurred in the fifth-floor office of the Prince Law Group during a deposition, according to sources.
The law office is situated at 10801 W. Charleston Blvd., near the Red Rock Casino Resort & Spa.
Dennis Prince was representing his wife, Ashley Prince, during a deposition that involved Ashley Prince’s ex-husband, according to sources.
Ashley Prince’s ex-husband’s father, Joe Houston, was representing his son in the proceedings, as per sources. Records indicate that Dylan Houston filed for divorce from Ashley Houston, who was then named, in 2021.
Around 10 a.m., according to sources, Joe Houston allegedly shot the Princes before taking his own life.
The Princes, who had recently become parents, were confirmed by friends. Robert Eglet, Prince’s former law partner, described him as an excellent father to four children, expressing that his passing was not just a loss to his family, but also to the community.
Tom Letizia, a political consultant and friend of Prince, stated, “Dennis was not only a close friend of mine but also a respected figure within our legal community, whose absence has left us all in mourning.
The news of this tragedy has profoundly shocked me and our entire community.”
The Clark County coroner’s office will officially identify the victims at a later date.
