Caesars Guests Sue Over Vegas Condom Shocker

Claim: Girl, 5, found used rubber, placed item in her mouth

JULY 18--Claiming that their young daughter discovered a used condom in a Las Vegas hotel bed and then put the rubber in her mouth, a Scottish couple is suing Caesar's Palace for negligence and emotional distress. According to a lawsuit filed July 13 in Clark County District Court, five-year-old Caitlin Kilcoyne found the condom during a July 2004 Sin City visit with her parents Gerald and Jacqueline. Caitlin "found a used condom in the made up bed in her room...and placed the condom in her mouth," notes the complaint, a copy of which you'll find below. The Kilcoynes contend that, following the incident, they incurred expenses for medical treatment, hospitalization, x-rays, drugs, and "evaluation and treatment of Caitlin's condition." The lawsuit does not indicate what, if any, lasting damage was caused to the child. The complaint, which seeks in excess of $10,000 in damages, claims that the family has suffered "shock, horror, fear, anxiety, and distress." (6 pages)

Rio Condom Shocker

MAY 15--When Allen Casey and Caroline Scruggs checked into Las Vegas's Rio Hotel in early-March, they were probably expecting a little R&R in the adjoining suites they shared with their six-year-old daughter and infant son. What they got, according to this lawsuit filed in Clark County District Court, was a terrible scare when their baby began choking on an object apparently left by the room's prior inhabitant. You'll also gag when you hear what lil' Nicholas allegedly put in his mouth. (7 pages)
