Scene Setup and Instructions
Hayes claimed he didn’t recognize Ventura when she opened the door wearing a robe, and he believes she was also wearing a wig.
After arriving, Hayes alleges Ventura invited him into the suite and said that she didn’t want him to dance, but instead that she and her ‘husband’ ‘liked to create a sexy scene’ involving baby oil.
A detail that could prompt discussions around occupational health regulations, especially when considering skin exposure risks and dermatological reactions from prolonged oil use.
Hayes testified that the hotel room was “dimly lit” with “electric candles,” and contained “bowls of water with bottles of baby oil in them”—a setup that might seem theatrical but raises questions about hotel room liability and private event insurance coverage.
He then alleged he received one specific instruction from Ventura, saying: “I was specifically told to not acknowledge her husband, try not to look at him, no communication or anything.”
Escalation of Encounters
When the ‘husband’ came into the room, Hayes claimed he was ‘naked’ but that he ‘could not see his face.’
