Private Jet<\/strong><\/h2>\nManley has been a VIP customer with MGM since the 1990s, when he first met Rodman at the craps tables and agreed to become his agent. In December 2021, he had been invited to stay in the MGM Mansion by VIP staff who laid on a private jet for him, his girlfriend, and two friends, court filings stated.<\/p>\n
At around 1:45 p.m. on December 10, Manley ordered an \u201cold fashioned\u201d cocktail, which he claims tasted \u201cbitter.\u201d Nevertheless, he finished it and ordered a second, at which point he began to feel disoriented.<\/strong><\/p>\nAt around 4 p.m., Manley broke a glass ashtray, cutting his hand on it, which bled onto the gaming table.<\/p>\n

Staff moved him to a different table but didn’t offer any medical help other than some Band-Aids, the suit claims. They did, however, offer him a line of credit up to $3.5 million, despite his \u201cerratic\u201d behavior, per the complaint.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
At around 5:15 p.m., Manley\u2019s friends took him back to his villa, where he collapsed. When he woke the next day, he felt he had been drugged. He returned to California, where medical tests turned up ketamine in his system.<\/p>\n
\u2018Serious Criminal Act\u2019<\/strong><\/h2>\nKetamine, also known as angel dust, was developed as an anesthetic and is still used in veterinary medicine, particularly on larger animals. It is used recreationally in small amounts for its ability to induce a euphoric and mildly hallucinogenic state.<\/p>\n
But users who take too large a dose have reported experiencing an unpleasant state of dissociation and confusion, known as a \u201cK-hole.\u201d<\/p>\n
Manley has since hired a private investigator to look into the matter and has launched a website appealing for information at www.Reward4InfoCasinoDrugging.com.<\/p>\n
Mr. Manley feels that a serious criminal act was directed at him which potentially put his life in danger,\u201d<\/strong> one of Mr. Manley\u2019s attorneys, Richard K Howell, told\u00a0The Orange County Register<\/em>. \u201cHe is determined to do all that he can to track down and hold accountable those responsible.\u201d<\/strong><\/p><\/blockquote>\nThe plaintiff believes he shouldn’t be liable for the casino markers, according to the lawsuit. He seeks unspecified damages of more than $75K. He has reported the matter to Las Vegas Metro Police and the Nevada Gaming Control Board.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
