Liam Payne’s family files legal action in response to startling disclosures about his last hours at an Argentinean hotel.
After Liam Payne’s tragic death, his family is taking strong action to ensure that those responsible for his final moments face justice.
Page Six sources state that the adored One Direction singer’s family has hired a local Buenos Aires, Argentina, legal company to investigate private criminal action against any party participating in the events leading to his murder.
Lawyers representing Payne’s family showed up in an Argentinean court on Tuesday, November 26, to officially document their participation in the continuous legal processes.
By doing this, they enable the family to become plaintiffs in any upcoming criminal proceedings, therefore marking their first public participation in the inquiry since Payne’s death on October 16 at the CasaSur Palermo hotel.
Distressing findings abound in the inquiry, which has taken a gloomy turn with the publication of pictures showing Payne’s erratic actions in the hotel lobby just before the sad event.
CCTV evidence and a police report point to authorities suspecting Payne fell from his hotel room balcony while trying to flee his locked unit.
Hotel workers hauled a drunken Payne back to his room, where a fight broke out as he attempted to escape, according to law enforcement footage.
Staff workers confined Payne to his room and summoned emergency services to document his erratic behavior and potential self-harm risks, despite his agitated mood and indications of plans to use the balcony. Payne sadly died not too long thereafter.
The Payne family’s involvement in the court procedure comes after the singer previously expressed his frustration with the frequent imprisonment he faced during the peak of One Direction’s popularity.
These feelings may help to clarify Payne’s mental state during the occurrence, therefore adding levels of complexity to the case.
Nicolas Durrieu, a Buenos Aires criminal attorney, has said that hotel employees may face major accusations, including “abandonment of a person,” which carries a possible 15-year jail term if they are indeed aware of Payne’s vulnerable situation and fail to provide sufficient support.
One person close to the family confirmed to Page Six their relentless pursuit of justice for Liam.
The insider firmly stated that the Payne family is determined to pursue legal action against any individual whose negligence could have resulted in the singer’s death.
Authorities have already charged two hotel staff members for allegedly providing narcotics to Payne, and they are also investigating an associate of the singer for possible carelessness in not helping him during his final hours.
Along with supporters all around, the Payne family stays tenacious in their search for closure and answers while the judicial process runs on the sad death of Liam Payne—a tragedy that has permanently changed the music business and all those who loved him.
