Liam Payne’s death at the CasaSur Palermo hotel in Buenos Aires has led to charges against five people. Rogelio “Roger” Nores, a close friend of Liam’s, faces charges of negligent homicide after the singer tragically fell from a hotel balcony.
Nores insists he left Liam in good spirits and didn’t abandon him before the fall. He says he left at least 40 minutes before the incident. Authorities haven’t arrested him, but they won’t let him leave Argentina.
Along with Nores, Braian Paiz, a hotel waiter, faces charges of supplying drugs to Liam. Paiz admitted to using cocaine with him. Ezequiel Pereyra, another hotel employee, also faces charges of supplying drugs. Both Paiz and Pereyra now sit in custody and face serious charges.
Hotel managers Gilda Martín and Esteban Grassi also face manslaughter charges. All five must appear in court, but only Paiz and Pereyra remain behind bars.
The tragic Fall
Liam Payne, just 31, fell to his death on October 16. His death shocked the world. He had a young son, Bear, with Cheryl Cole. The details of his fall raised many questions. Police found his hotel room smashed, and reports say he acted aggressively. A 911 call that day mentioned Liam’s strange behavior, possibly due to drugs and alcohol.
Grassi, the hotel’s chief receptionist, said Liam repeatedly called for alcohol and drugs. Liam insulted staff when they couldn’t help. Text messages also showed Liam offering $5,000 to an escort for a party. These details raised suspicions that drugs played a role in his death.
Investigation into Drugs and Negligence
Before his death, a psychiatrist warned Nores that Liam’s mental health worsened. The doctor said it was dangerous to mix alcohol with antidepressants. Still, Liam’s tragic fall unfolded. Paiz and Pereyra face charges for supplying drugs to him at the hotel. Both could spend up to 15 years in prison.
Paiz admitted using marijuana and cocaine with Liam but denied supplying him with drugs. Pereyra has stayed silent since the investigation started.
Nores continues to deny abandoning Liam. He says he visited him three times that day and was shocked when he heard about the fall. He says, “I could never have imagined this happening.”
Evidence of Drug use
The investigation confirmed that Liam had alcohol and cocaine in his system when he died. Authorities also found traces of antidepressants. Police ruled out suicide and believe Liam fell while unconscious.
Grassi and Martín helped carry Liam back to his room just before he fell. Both have refused to comment publicly since the investigation began. A photo showed Liam being carried back to his room by them, adding to the questions.
A Witness speaks out
Bret Watson, a tourist who saw Liam fall, said it’s something he will never forget. He called it “burned into my brain.”
Liam’s girlfriend, Kate Cassidy, agreed to talk to the police. She was with Liam two days before his death. Though she isn’t under investigation, she wants to help find out what happened. Sources say she wants to ensure the right people face justice.
