Clark County commissioner stunned no charges filed yet in latest Strip death
For six hours, Terrell lay on the hallway floor near the elevator as hotel customers stepped around his body entering and exiting the elevator, according to what (Clark County Commissioner Steve) Sisolak said he was told by Metro (Police).
Finally about 11 a.m., resort security got involved. Terrell was still unconscious but alive, Sisolak said he was told.
It is disgusting that no customer tried to do anything to help; not even make a simple phone call or tell a hotel employee. I guess surveillance was preoccupied for hours watching out for brain-using patrons, and the security guards were asleep in the break room or in otherwise unused hotel rooms.
Metro was involved in the case several hours after security found Terrell …
After eventually being awakened from their slumber, it took security several hours to notify Metro Police. Incredible. The incompetence and stupidity regularly exhibited by some of the pinheads in casino security borders on criminality. Our District Attorney needs to file charges against more than just the guy who killed Terrell.

The issue is not what the physical appearance was or what sort of activities were engaged in, the issue is how a “drunk” can lie unattended in the elevator vestibule and why cameras and routine patrols failed to spot any of this.
Now this “stole four wallets” seems strange. I think it more likely that some customers discovered something about “Christine” and the fight started there, not at the elevator area.
