Good reporters should be able to get the ID anyway from the hotel maids, front office personnel etc...Promise them face time on TV, a few bucks, etc. Since the press know where this occurred, getting info on occupants probably wouldn’t be that difficult. Hell, all the press would have to do is interview other occupants and find out if these were mid-eastern types accents, did they speak foreign languages...etc etc.
Oh, I know all that. But someone told me I was giving reporters too much credit earlier, so you know, I wasn’t gonna go there a second time. LOL
