Key Takeaways
- Three watches, valued at $120k were stolen from one man, including two Rolexes and a Audemars Piguet
- Two women, Bailey Carr and Nikailah McMasters, were charged in the case
- The two women could face prison time if convicted
Two men had a combined three watches stolen from them while they were sleeping in their room at the Wynn Encore Resort in Las Vegas, Nevada.
The two men had met two women at the bar in the resort lobby before the women suggested they all return to the men’s room.
Now, they’re being charged for stealing those watches and more.
This comes after a man pleaded guilty earlier this month to attempted murder charges at the Red Rock Resort, also in Las Vegas.
The Stolen Goods
After returning to the room, one of the men fell asleep, and one of the women stayed with him.
The next morning, the man who fell asleep awoke to find that three of his six watches were stolen.
The other man didn’t seem to have anything taken from him.
The watches stolen include the following:
- Valued at $80k: An Audemars Piguet with a black face and diamonds.
- Valued at $25k: A Rolex Presidential with a green face and diamonds.
- Value at $15k: A Rolex Submariner “Starbucks” with a black face.
The man also realized that a transaction was made on his Zelle account for $1,200 that the woman seemingly sent to herself.
What Happened and Who Was the Woman?
According to the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department, The woman identified for the theft was Nikailah McMasters.
While the man who had the items stolen from him denied sexual intercourse, the other man said that McMasters was told to “take care of him,” the police report stated.
The pairs of men and women were in separate rooms.
The other woman involved was Bailey Carr. She reportedly stripped and danced in the room and asked the other man for money in exchange for sexual intercourse. The man paid her $800.
The two women disappeared into the hotel following the thefts but were spotted back at Wynn Encore Resort this past Sunday.
The two were charged with grand larceny exceeding $100k, residential burglary, and conspiracy to commit grand larceny. McMasters was also charged with theft, valued at $1,200 or greater but less than $5,000.
They could both face prison time if convicted.
A Similar Watch Theft at The Bellagio
There were similar incidents recently involving women stealing watches, such as a case in July where Maiah Meleschi, an alleged prostitute, swiped an $85k Rolex and a $35k gold necklace.
The man in the case, Meleschi, met on the casino floor, and he paid her $1k in exchange for sex.
Then, like in this case, the man fell asleep and awoke to find his belongings and $3k in cash gone.
That case is still pending.
