Too Long; Didn't Read
This week, <a href="https://www.desmoinesregister.com/story/news/crime-and-courts/2019/02/13/des-moines-iowa-hotel-embassy-suites-settles-lawsuit-rape-victim/2865171002/">the Des Moines Register reported on lawsuit by a businesswoman who was raped in her Embassy Suites hotel room</a>. The front desk had given the attacker a key to her room without asking for proof that he was a guest. Then, upon realizing the victim had engaged the safety latch on the door, the attacker got a hotel staff member to disable it. All it took was a simple story about how his girlfriend had locked him out of their room after having a fight.
