Cops visited their room at the Rio Hotel & Casino around 10:45 a.m., but left after not getting a response at the door and having no indication either was in danger, the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department said.
Family members continued to press police and hotel officials to check on the room. Hotel security decided to enter the room and discovered Addi and McGeehan shot dead roughly four hours after police had left.
McGeehan, who was embroiled in a bitter custody dispute with her ex-husband, Brad Smith, had left behind an apparent suicide note, according to police.
Addi was a cheerleader for Xtreme Cheer, which was devastated by her death.
“No words do the situation justice. She was so beyond loved, and she will always be a part of the UXC family,” the cheer team said.
