Police Say Tara Reid Hotel Video Shows No Drink Tampering as Probe Continues

Investigators now await hospital records following a CCTV review that showed no tampering.

Overview

  • Rosemont police say bar surveillance shows no one adding anything to Reid's drink and that a bartender covered it when she stepped away, which they call standard practice.
  • The case remains open with no suspects and no criminal act evident at this time as authorities work to obtain hospital records and learn what, if any, chemical tests were performed.
  • Reid maintains she was drugged, saying she blacked out and awoke in a hospital after more than eight hours, and describes ongoing mental-health effects from the incident.
  • Paramedics responded to the DoubleTree in Rosemont on Nov. 23, with bystander video showing Reid disoriented, helped into a wheelchair, and later taken out on a stretcher.
  • Reid’s report mentions an influencer who later sent her videos she perceived as an extortion attempt; police say they have spoken with the YouTuber and still see no evidence of drink tampering.
