Liam Payne pal got him escorts, cocaine hours before death: prosecutors

Liam Payne texted his friend about obtaining escorts and drugs before his fatal fall from a Buenos Aires balcony, according to docs filed by national prosecutors who have charged the Argentine businessman with abandonment.

Argentine businessman Rogelio “Roger” Nores, one of three charged in connection with the 31-year-old singer’s fall from his third-story room at CasaSur Palermo Hotel last month, allegedly checked on Payne three times the day he died, according to an official document authored by national prosecutors and obtained by TMZ.

Payne texted Nores around 7 a.m. on Oct. 16 to say, “Dude I think I’m going to f–k a hooker,” followed nearly 90 minutes later by the request that Nores “get 6 grams,” in an apparent reference to cocaine, per TMZ.

Two sex workers told authorities Payne flew into a rage when, after sleeping with him, they requested payment. They say Payne punched the television several times and previously asked whether they had any cocaine as he didn’t have any left.

Payne allegedly requested “another 7 grams for today” from a hotel worker at about 2 p.m.

Nores allegedly arrived around 3:45 to pay the sex workers and left roughly 20 minutes later, at which point he alleges Payne appeared perfectly sober. However, employees found him “visibly drunk” with dilated pupils and heard him breaking things in the room before trying and failing to reach Nores.

A hotel worker said in a 911 call, moments before Payne’s deadly plunge just after 5 p.m., that they feared for his safety, given his behavior and the balcony.

TMZ reported Monday that Payne, who’d been wrestled to his room by a trio of hotel workers, had a history of trying to escape rooms via a balcony. It’s now believed he was trying to climb down to the second floor balcony, where his bag was found.

Stoneway Capital founder Nores was one of three charged with abandonment of a person followed by death, which a judge has ruled must be handled by local prosecutors, not national prosecutors. Local prosecutors have not yet filed such charges, per TMZ.

A hotel worker and an accused drug dealer have also been charged for their alleged roles in supplying and delivering drugs to Payne.

Payne was laid to rest outside London last week in a private funeral attended by his family and his former One Direction bandmates.
