Body not discovered for 23 days in Las Vegas airport’s short-term parking

It was not until a parking employee noticed the smell that he called police.

A parking employee discovered the woman’s body in the car in the short-term parking area of the Terminal 1 garage on Nov. 1, 2022, documents said.

Short-term passenger parking is intended for stays at the airport of three hours or less, the airport’s website said. The woman entered the garage on Oct. 8 and died by suicide, a report said. The total time her body lay there, 23 days, is more than 500 hours over that 3-hour limit.

The area is also a row away from the busy road where passengers meet awaiting cars, albeit an area where no stopping is allowed.

While signs for short-term parking and the airport’s website claim there’s a three-hour limit, Rajchel said a car can be parked there for 30 days before it is towed.

While the car with the woman’s body in it was “logged as in pulling into the garage,” according to a report, it was unclear if there was other surveillance of it available.

[An] ex-employee said garage staff is not allowed to look into vehicles nor could they see inside if the windows were obscured. A report on the incident indicates the woman’s windows were tinted, but that a sunroof was left open.

“... died by suicide...”

How do they know that? Was there a drug overdose? A bullet in the scull? A COVID syringe?

So airport parking systems are so dumb and managed so poorly that a car entering for short term parking recieves no red flags when it’s time in the short term parking area passes the short term time limit, as indicated by no exit time. How stupid.

“How do they know that?”
Autopsy?
Howsome never, the real problem is, who pays the overtime parking fee? Next of kin? Estate? Car insurance?
I sorta kinda suspect that with the publicity, the company that has the parking concession will waive the over time penalty and the city will simply bill the taxpayers.

I don’t think they really pay attention. You get your ticket, you park, when you leave you slide the ticket in and you get billed. Oh you were in short term parking for 3 days? Sucks to be you. It’s probably not until a car gets dirty that anybody actually notices anything.

Some parking bill the family will have to pay, if she had a family.

$12 for the first 3 hours and then $3/hour for every hour afterward. 500 hours, = $1,500. Total was $1,512 give or take an hour or two.

My neighbor bought one, the first impression upon entering was the smell....and they did everything; removed the seats, the carpet, the door panels, the overhead liner.

Would have been longer if he was in Long Term Parking.

Myth Busters did it with a dead pig in a Corvette. The guy who bought the car after the show was going to part it out.
