Overview
- The wrongful-death complaint was filed Sept. 18 by Heslin’s husband, Scotty Dynamo, against Javier’s at the ARIA Hotel in Las Vegas.
- It alleges staff did nothing as Heslin showed “obvious” signs of distress and “forcefully interfered” with a diner attempting CPR.
- The suit says an automated external defibrillator kept at the restaurant was not retrieved or used during the emergency.
- Friends say they were forced out or threatened with arrest when trying to help, and employees allegedly demanded deletion of phone videos.
- The filing lists five counts and seeks damages exceeding $30,000 plus funeral costs and punitive awards, with the claims not yet tested in court.
