What else has the investigation included?
As the prosecutor’s office noted in its Nov. 7 release, “exhaustive and meticulous actions and measures were taken to clarify the circumstances” around Payne’s death.
These include, the release continued, “several dozen testimonies” from hotel employees, family, friends, medical professionals, biochemists and psychiatrists. What’s more, the release added, a “detailed analysis of more than 800 hours of video footage from various security cameras in the hotel and others on public roads” was conducted.
But that’s not all. “The forensic extraction of the contents of the deceased musician’s cell phone was also carried out,” the release said. “From this, his calls, messages, chats on messaging applications and social networks were analyzed.”
In addition, the release said “several gigabytes of data extracted from other cell phones were obtained and examined, such as that of the hotel reception and those of witnesses who voluntarily offered them to corroborate their statements.”
Other information examined, the release added, included “a record of the guests and orders at the hotel bar/restaurant” to see who visited Payne as well as what they ate and drank.
Plus, the prosecutor’s office said “nine raids were requested at homes” in Buenos Aires.
However, the Nov. 7 release noted “the investigation must continue, since, among other procedures, the unlocking of the victim’s personal netbook – which is broken – and other devices seized in the investigation are still in progress.”
