A woman has been accused of stealing $50,000 from her ‘sugar daddy’ after dumping him while they watched U2 at the Las Vegas Sphere.
Hailey McNally, 27, matched with the man in his 50s on ‘Seeking Arrangement’ and joined him for a weekend in the city.
He paid her $2,500 for her time and even took her to the popular band’s show at the new arena on October 14.
But she allegedly dumped him in the middle of the night and robbed his safe at Caesars Palace before she was arrested.
Hailey McNally is accused of stealing $50,000 from a man who paid her as a “sugar daddy” for a weekend when she dumped him while he attended a show at U2’s residency at the new Las Vegas Sphere
The weekend started with McNally helping the drunk man into bed at the Caesars Palace Hotel and Casino before leaving that evening and returning the next morning, where she found him gambling with his friends.
The victim gave her another $400, which she gambled and won $3,100 that day. 8NewsNow reported.
McNally then asked the victim if she could put her bag in his security locker in his room.
He gave her a code to unlock the safe, where she put her wallet next to about $50,000 in cash and another $7,000 in poker chips, authorities said.
That Saturday night, McNally joined the victim and his friends at the eighth performance of the Irish band’s Las Vegas residency at the newly opened billion-dollar venue.
McNally told the victim she needed to go to the bathroom and left in the middle of the concert.
He noticed she had been gone for about 15 minutes and texted her asking if she was okay, but got no response.
Another 35 minutes passed before the victim decided to call Caesars Palace security and ask them to lock his room.
U2’s residency at Sphere attracts fans from all over the world and receives critical acclaim. One of them, a man in his 50s who attended the October 14 show, had contacted Hailey McNally about five weeks earlier on a “Seeking Arrangement” site
McNally and the victim met at Caesars Palace on Oct. 13, with him handing her the money before going to a pool and dinner, where the victim became drunk, according to a police report.
When he returned to the room, he discovered that the safe was empty and both the money and chips had been taken.
McNally was caught on surveillance video entering the 24th floor of the hotel where the room was located at about 9:30 p.m., about half an hour after she said she went to the restroom.
Police say she got back into the elevator shortly afterwards with several bags.
She was arrested on October 17. McNally claimed to police that the victim had been “sexually aggressive and touched her inappropriately,” making her feel uncomfortable.
McNally claimed she only took her purse, other belongings and the casino chips and never stole the money.

Police conducted a search of McNally’s apartment and discovered approximately $11,700 in cash and another $5,200 in chips.
She is charged with theft over $25,000 and residential burglary. Both charges are felonies.
McNally, who was released on bail, is due in court on November 22.
U2 have extended their ‘Achtung Baby U2:UV’ residency at Sphere until the end of February, Billboard reports.
