Horrifying cases of women being raped in their rooms at top hotel chains are taking place because staff are allegedly handing over keys to sexual predators unchecked, The Post can reveal.
Two separate cases in Texas claim men broke into women’s rooms after lying to staff to obtain keycards.
In an even more shocking incident, one man was allegedly able to convince police and hotel staff to deliver his victim to his own room at a Hilton-owned property.
One alleged unwanted entry was only foiled when a quick thinking woman slammed a door on an intruder’s hand — severing his finger clean off in the process.
Outlining a December 2022 incident at a Holiday Inn Express & Suites, a lawyer representing a victim, who hails from Milwaukee, told The Post: “The woman was asleep and she woke up to the man crouched at the foot of her bed with his pants undone and a condom out.
“She was able to scream and get him out of the room, and she immediately called down to the front desk. They admitted, ‘Oh yes, we did give a key to the man. He said he knew you.’”

Biblically.
A quote wrongly attributed to Voltaire but actually written by an admitted and vociferous White Supremacist and neo Nazi by the name of Kevin Alfred Strom about who and who you can’t criticize.

Sorry, but my title, screen name mean absolutely nothing.

I remember reading that Connie Francis never fully recovered mentally from the shock of the attack and couldn’t trust people or her safety. Sad.
From article:... in 1974, police found Francis in a Long Island hotel room naked, gagged and tied to an overturned chair. She was terrorized for nearly three hours at knife-point, raped and robbed. The crime led to a nervous breakdown, a crumbling marriage and it nearly ended her career.

One of these ladies was awarded $44 million, but unsaid was whether she had collected the award. I think that was the lady that was found outside passed out , laying in the street in front of the hotel, but I’m not sure- there were four cases discussed in the article.
In the 1980s a British stewardess as they were known then was set up in a hotel room on a layover in the City of Detroit in the glittering Renaissance Center, one of the pockets of artificially created tourist friendly rehabilitated Detroit places scattered among the large urban decay ruins that are not shown in travel scenes. Sports arenas, rock concerts and then get out of town on the freeway as fast as you can.
Someone gave someone her hotel room access. She was brutally gang raped for hours and then murdered.
The pictures of her smiling and looking so innocent and the thought that instead of England she had to end up in the God forsaken hell hole of Detroit and get killed that way was something I’ve never forgotten.
I’m figured that. I was just being cheeky.
As a guy I’ve lost my room keys and quickly gotten replacements without verification from front desks. That makes me think they do this a lot and randomly there are bad outcomes.
I have actually checked into a motel and been given a room already or still occupied. At least three times over the years as i traveled a lot. Once i opened a door and there was a guy in his boxer shorts changing clothes. We were both startled.
That’s a great gadget.
Also, take a buddy bar, when traveling/staying in hotel.
Correct. Part of my routine.
But if the lady happened to be out of the room and the perp got in there...
