Liam Payne Dies After Fall in Argentina

Liam Payne tragically died on October 16 after falling from the third floor of the CasaSur Palermo hotel in Buenos Aires, while attempting to escape the building in a drugged state. An Argentinian judge, Laura Bruniard, confirmed that Payne was likely in a state of 'semi or total unconsciousness' during the fall, which resulted in multiple traumas and internal bleeding. Five individuals, including hotel staff and Payne's friend, have been charged with wrongful death and drug-related offenses, as evidence indicated that he had been demanding cocaine and alcohol prior to his fall. Judge Bruniard emphasized that those responsible failed to ensure Payne's safety, noting he should not have been left alone in such a vulnerable condition. The investigation revealed a history of addiction, with the hotel staff's actions deemed imprudent and negligent. No convictions have yet been made as the case continues under Argentina's inquisitorial legal system.
