Las Vegas Strip Casino Sued Over Car Stolen from its Valet

A California couple looked forward to a weekend getaway when they arrived at Paris Las Vegas on Friday, June 24, 2022, and handed their car keys to a valet attendant.

On Saturday morning, Jennifer Marquecho returned to the valet to retrieve her Range Rover. But someone else had checked it out at 11:13 p.m. Friday, using the ticket they stole from her hotel room.

“I just wish something could be done, so this doesn’t happen to anybody else because I would hate for them to live this nightmare,” Marquecho told KLAS-TV/Las Vegas at the time. “I feel violated.”

Marquecho was ultimately able to find her Range Rover using a tracking app. It was parked near Boulder Station Hotel and Casino. Though its license plate had been replaced with a fake one, there was no damage to the vehicle — though personal documents and the keys to her house were gone.

Marquecho told KLAS that police took a report but told her there would be no arrests made since her car wasn’t involved in a crime.

In her lawsuit, Marquecho seeks relief for damages and payment for attorney fees incurred.

If the judge sides with Marquecho, this could prompt Strip properties to consider requiring ID verification to leave and retrieve cars from their valets.
