Liam Payne, a singer from One Direction, dies on October 6. He falls from a hotel balcony in Buenos Aires, Argentina.

Five people are in trouble because of his death. The hotel manager, Gilda Martin, a receptionist, Esteban Grassi, and Liam’s friend, Roger Nores. These people do not help Liam when he is drunk. Two others, Ezequiel Pereyra and Braian Paiz, give drugs to Liam.

The police think that Liam buys drugs just before he dies. They believe that Liam falls because he is trying to leave his room. Many people love Liam. A big court is studying his death.

Difficult words: death (when someone dies), drunk (when you drink too much alcohol), study (to look at carefully).

You can watch the original video in the Level 3 section.

Who are the five people implicated in Liam Payne's death and why are they considered responsible?
