More likely, she drugged him at the hotel bar without his knowledge and then helped him back to his room while he was unable to consent (and barely walk).

I'm sure that's her story and she's sticking to it.........LOL!

Just curious, would your wife fall for that bullshit excuse?

Yes!. Our daughter and her husband are LEO. They tell us that this sort of thing happens all the time. Sometimes the thieves work as teams, sometime solo. The perp looks for a single male at the bar who appears distracted -- watching a ball game, looking at his cell phone, chatting with the person next to him, etc. The perp slips something into his drink. As the drug and alcohol take over, he gets confused, unsteady, and on the verge of blacking out. The perp plays good Samaritan and assists the guy back to his room. He passes out and she robs him. The next day, he has no recollection whatsoever and if he is married, he may be too embarrassed to file a police report because he has no recollection what happened and his wife may think he cheated with a whore when his only fault was not watching his drink at the bar.

My wife thinks she witnessed this at a hotel bar in Miami a few years ago. She was sitting at a table that faced a mirror that reflected the bar. She saw the perp quickly drop something into a guys drink and then the perp went to the restroom. My wife told the guy what she saw and when the perp came back an saw my wife talking to the guy, she took off.

It does happen.

It’s called a Mickey Finn. They slip something in your drink when you’re distracted. Then they help you to your room while you’re falling down drunk. It’s like three card monte with a serving of strongarm robbery.
