Husband Sues Las Vegas Restaurant Alleging Delayed CPR Contributed to Actor mike HeslinS Death
Las Vegas, NV – Scotty Dynamo, husband of the late actor Mike Heslin, has filed a wrongful death lawsuit against Aria Resort and Casino, owners of Javier’s Las Vegas, alleging negligence in responding to Heslin’s medical emergency. The suit claims restaurant staff failed to administer timely CPR, potentially contributing to Heslin’s death at the age of 30.
Heslin,known for his roles in Paramount+’s Lioness and Lifetime’s The Holiday Proposal Plan,passed away on July 2nd following a week-long hospitalization for an unexplained cardiac event. Dynamo announced the tragic news via Instagram, stating doctors were unable to determine the cause of his husband’s sudden illness.
According to court documents filed on September 18th and obtained by Us weekly, Dynamo is pursuing five counts against the Aria Resort and Casino: wrongful death, loss of consortium, negligence, gross negligence, and negligent hiring, retention, training, and supervision.
The lawsuit details the events leading up to heslin’s death.While dining wiht friends at Javier’s,heslin reportedly collapsed. Witnesses immediately called for help, moving him to the floor and signaling distress. Despite multiple employees observing Heslin’s deteriorating condition, the suit alleges they ”stood by, took no immediate lifesaving action, and failed to initiate or support efforts that coudl have saved Michael’s life.”
A particularly disturbing claim within the lawsuit alleges that a bystander did attempt to administer CPR, but was “forcefully removed” by a Javier’s employee, interrupting the potentially life-saving procedure.
Dynamo’s complaint further asserts that the restaurant failed to maintain adequate emergency response equipment, including a readily available and functioning Automated External Defibrillator (AED), and did not activate established emergency protocols.
This lawsuit raises serious questions about the preparedness of restaurants and other public establishments to respond effectively to medical emergencies. The case is ongoing, and world-today-news.com will continue to provide updates as they become available.
