According to a new lawsuit, the widow of a Colorado man who died of a drug overdose after spending time with a Las Vegas prostitute is accusing the hotel his husband was staying for his sudden death in 2023.
Jennifer Jacoby filed an illegal death lawsuit against the owner of Palazzo last month.
During her stay, Jacoby met Cheylee Kessee, a female prosecutor known as a sex worker, at a hotel bar early in the morning on March 1st. According to the Las Vegas Review Journal.
Hooker and her husband walk around the hotel casino for about 40 minutes before the pair heads to the cashier's cage area, allowing Jacoby to withdraw $1,000, the law newspaper said.
She reportedly went to her hotel room with 55-year-old Jacoby, but left about eight minutes later.
During her interaction with Jacoby, Kessie was texting Kachon Glass, who was acting as her “pimp,” the lawsuit alleges.
After Jennifer Jacoby called the hotel to see if she could check her husband, whom staff had not been in touch with for hours, the workers determined he “does not respond, collapsed on the ground in the toilet,” the lawsuit said.
Glass, 38, and Kessee, 24, pleaded voluntary manslaughter and robbery counts last year, and Glass was hit at least 20 years later, and Kessee faced at least eight years of Clink. Klas reported.
They were accused of giving Jacoby a deadly dose of fentanyl.
Kessie reportedly told police that she and Jacoby smoked fentanyl together until his death. When he was discovered, his cell phone and wallet were gone.
However, Jacoby's sad wife argued that the hotel should have known about “Kessey and Glass” “the history of targeting and robbing and sacrificing hotel guests,” and both should have been charged from property, legal documents say.
According to the Journal of Review, Jacoby claims that glass was followed by security guards at Palazzo.
An email to the Venice casino resort that owns Palazzo was not immediately returned Monday night seeking comment.
