Hotel staff did the wellness check.

My brother was not in the room but his dog was. Dog is fine.

The woman conducting the check says she passed a man fitting my brother's description walking down the hall, but she didn't think to stop him.

Room is apparently clean. My mother is asking them to go look for his car.

Without question. This is probably the nicest / safest part of the city.

Parking is another $50.

I guess my big question is what happens when you all find him?

Hotel staff can’t stop him, unless he’s got drugs NOPD can’t stop him, and posters here can’t stop him.

Are you guys just wanting to know if he’s alive?

Is anyone in your family going to go down there and have a chat with him?

Sounding promising that he’s ok for now.
I may go back to the hotel a little later. Feels like I’m being a bit of a stalker though. LOL

My hope is they bust down the door, find him with drugs


That could easily go sideways in new orleans. I'd hope for no need to bust down a door, when it's at that point many misunderstandings can happen in the moment.

Especially if someone is under the influence

Surely this isn’t the first time he’s gone “missing”.

This board would be a better place if you did

At this point that's what we are hoping for.

My mother is afraid of spooking him so she isn't pressing the hotel staff or police after this last update.

If he can afford a room at the Intercontinental, the phone thing is weird.

Sounds like he is after the most recent update. Sounds like y'all just missed him with the staff wellness check.

He's gonna come back for the dog. Best you can do is go there, or send some other family there and wait for him to come back and guage his mental state. Like others have said, not much you can do if he wants to be left alone and is using his own money to make that happen. I'd just talk with him and ask him what's going on and what he wants without being judgy about the drug use. Soon as you do that, he's gonna shut down and stop talking.

Not really. Could be charging the rooms to a credit card and sold the phone for drug cash.

Hotel staff confirm he is staying there. They have his driver's license on file.

Decides not to worry about getting a new one, especially if he doesn't have a national carrier. Or if he is going to have to file an insurance claim.
