Jacob Irwin-Cline from Portland, Oregon, was at a two-day dismissal when he called Uber after leaving Roxy, a nightclub in Sohou on May 9, at about 1:30 in the morning.

CCTV recording of a nightclub that later requested by Irwin-Cline revealed that he had entered a dark limo, not Toyota Prius shown on his Uber app.
“The guy seemed super cold, super beautiful,” Irwin-Clin recounted.
The driver then offered him a cigarette, believed to contain Scopolamine, a sedative that causes darkening, and keep the victims conscious and suggestive.
“I said I stopped smoking, but he said, ‘Oh, come on. I said, “Of course, if you want to bond with a cigarette,” Irwin-Cline said.
