Liam Payne Case Files Show Hotel Photos, Drink and Cocaine Use

Hotel staff grew concerned about Payne's condition and escorted him from the lobby back to his room after his behavior became troubling. An employee then called emergency services, warning that Payne could harm himself and noting that his room had access to a balcony. Payne fell roughly 46 feet from that balcony. Investigators looked into the possibility that he was trying to leave the room when he fell.

Toxicology tests previously found cocaine, crack cocaine, ketamine and alcohol in Payne's system. The newly surfaced documents add more detail to that account, including additional photographs from inside the hotel.

Payne had arrived in Argentina 16 days before his death while waiting for his US visa to be renewed. He spent part of that time with his girlfriend, Kate Cassidy, and businessman Rogelio "Roger" Nores. His death set off an inquiry into the fall and the events at the hotel, with authorities examining his movements, his interactions with staff and the two women, and the substances in his system.
