Liam Payne He was trying to escape his hotel when he fell to his death, and the hotel knew he was threatening to use the balcony as a means of escape, but left him alone… This was according to eyewitnesses. According to police reports, 911 calls and surveillance video.
Here’s what we know. Liam didn’t like being stuck in hotel rooms… he had to deal with that while in One Direction. They’ve used the balcony escape plan before, most recently in mid-September, when sources with direct knowledge told TMZ … Liam’s bodyguard was concerned he might be under the influence of drugs and Forced him to go inside a room in a rented house in Florida. Liam escaped from the balcony and reached the ground using a garden hose.
View surveillance screenshots of the Casasur Palermo hotel in Buenos Aires. Liam, who had been causing a disturbance in the lobby and was clearly under the influence, passed out when 3 hotel staff took him to his room, minutes before he collapsed. Liam is clearly conscious – although we’ve blurred his face, he’s holding his head straight.
And, just 2 minutes before he was taken away, Liam was standing upright in the lobby.
When hotel staff took Liam to his room, he struggled with them… clearly not wanting to go in.
Still, the hotel used a master key to enter the room, kept Liam inside and, according to the police report obtained by TMZ, they removed a mirror from the wall directly outside his room, presumably so he could use it. Do not cause harm.
It is clear that Liam told the staff he did not want to stay in the room and would use the balcony to escape, because one of the staff called 911 minutes later and said they were afraid he might use the balcony. And may accidentally hurt yourself. According to the 911 transcript, the hotel employee said, “I don’t know if his life could be in danger. He’s in the room with the balcony, and, well, we’re a little scared…”
So the hotel staff left Liam alone inside the room… where he he diedIt is clear that he was trying to escape from the balcony, because when his body was found he had a bag tied over his shoulder…it was not with him when he was taken out of the lobby.
Police also found a hat on or near Liam’s body. The hat is telling… He must have had to wear the hat inside the room, because it was not in the lobby.
It seems that Liam was trying to jump from the third-floor balcony to the second-floor balcony, and then jump a short distance to the ground. This theory is supported by the police report, which states that 2 days after Liam’s death, a hotel employee went to the second floor room directly below Liam and found a brown leather bag (the bag strapped over his shoulder) on the balcony. No) was found, on which a note was written. Inside was written “For Liam”, along with various pills and a bottle of Jack Daniels. The report said the bag belonged to Liam. So presumably, he dropped the bag on the second floor balcony before attempting to jump down himself.
The coroner says that Liam may have been unconscious when he fell, but he was apparently conscious when he slung the bag over his shoulder inside his room and walked to the balcony.
A source with direct knowledge believes Argentine authorities are trying to protect the hotel, and that’s why they went after 3 people – A friend, a waiter and a then hotel employee Allegedly supplied to Liam With medicines. The source believes the hotel allegedly has a responsibility to care more about the disruption in the lobby and the security of hotel property rather than caring about Liam’s safety.
We contacted the hotel and they said, “No comment.”
