VEGAS CASINO CONDOM HORROR OF CAITLIN, 5
Kid puts used contraceptive in her mouth
By Steven Ventura

A HORRIFIED family are suing a luxury Las Vegas hotel after their five-year-old daughter found a used condom in their room and put it in her mouth.

Little Caitlin Kilcoyne was rushed to hospital after dad Gerald and mum Jacqueline found her blowing up the sheath like a balloon.

The anxious parents, from Bellshill, Lanarkshire, feared she may have been exposed to AIDS or another disease.

They are suing the world-famous Caesar's Palace hotel and casino complex - and legal experts believe they could win hundreds of thousands of pounds.

Last night, the family refused to speak about their ordeal.

But their lawyer, Nolan Mortimer, said: "Their daughter found a used condom in the bed in her room.

"She put it in her mouth and inflated it believing it to be a balloon and then removed it immediately.

"A claim is being brought on behalf of the child and parents for the potential exposure to contracting a communicable disease.

"A claim is also being brought on behalf of the parents for the emotional distress caused by the incident and possible consequences.".

The nightmare unfolded when self-employed builder Gerald and wife Jacqueline, both 42, went on a three-week trip to America two years ago.

The Kilcoynes and their three children had booked adjoining rooms at Caesar's Palace but were then told none was available.

Management agreed to give them an exclusive suite as compensation.

In their legal claim, the family said Caitlin found the used condom in her freshly made bed as soon as they entered the hotel room.

They were near their daughter at the time and witnessed the incident.

They are seeking more than £5400 in damages.

But legal experts believe a victory in Nevada's Clark County District Court could lead to a compensation package worth hundreds of thousands of pounds.

Their legal suit says that Caesar's Palace "negligently failed to maintain their hotel premises in a safe condition".

They are also claiming loss of earnings - which will include attendance at a future trial.

The Kilcoyne's US-based lawyer, William Kapalka, said the parents "observed the condom in her mouth, immediately removed it" and then informed the hotel.

Last night, a spokesman for Harrah's, the company who own Caesar's, refused to comment on the case.

He said: "It is not our policy to discuss matters where legal action is pending."

HIV virus can't live outside the body so no it couldn't happen from sucking on an old crusty used condom.

The virus can live up to 2 hours outside the body. Probably longer in a condom

Finger in wendy's chilly too. That turned out to be fraudulent and the woman got in some trouble for it.

The girl DID NOT contract AIDS from the ballon. The family is just because of the possibility of her having gotten the disease

Wonder if DNA tests could prove anything. You would need some type of interviews with the house keepers on duty and the prior guest(s) who stayed in that room.

If I owned/managed Caesar's (A scary thought in itself) I would just pay the £5400 and be done with it. Court and investigative meausures could get expensive. Not to mention the embarassment.

Misleading title to this thread. Where did the article say the 5 yr old got aids virus?

hahahahaha that was the point.

I didn't think this thread would take on such a serious tone...I'm disappointed. Damnit.

But yeah, could definitely be a fraud.
