Mandalay Bay is adding to its security even as it cuts hours of other employees. People seeking to get on the elevators must now show their room key. The new policy applies to Delano as well, they said. The change comes after the Oct. 1 shooting that killed 58 and injured more than 500.

Mandalay Bay security officer Jesus Campos has been staying at an MGM Resorts International property at the company’s expense following the deadly Oct. 1 mass shooting. As a result, some veteran trial lawyers are questioning the company’s gesture and potential influence over Campos, a key witness in the criminal investigation and civil litigation against MGM Resorts. Campos accepted the paid hotel stay for his own protection after he was identified Oct. 4 as the officer shot by the gunman the night of the massacre outside Mandalay Bay. Another veteran trial lawyer, Robert Eglet, said the company’s decision to shelter Campos from the public could backfire.
