Elisa Lam Case, Elevator Footage at the Cecil Hotel | True Crime Series | Campfire Crime Tales

Four minutes of security footage from LA's Cecil Hotel captured 21-year-old Canadian student Elisa Lam's unusual behavior before her 2013 disappearance. Weeks later, maintenance worker Santiago Lopez discovered her body in the hotel's rooftop water tank after guests complained about water quality. This case examines mental health, building security, and the Cecil's troubled history. The Los Angeles County Coroner ultimately ruled the death an accidental drowning, with bipolar disorder as a contributing factor. #CecilHotelCase #ElisaLam #LosAngelesHistory #UnsolvedMysteries Related: "Gone at Midnight" by Jake Anderson: https://www.amazon.ca/Gone-Midnight-M...
