   Two North Carolina men visiting South Beach have been arrested   
   and accused of drugging and raping a woman who later died in her   
   hotel room, police say.   
      
   The men, Evoire Collier, 21, and Dorian Taylor, 24, are also   
   accused of stealing the woman’s credit cards to spend money on   
   their trip in South Beach. Investigators are trying to determine   
   whether the woman died of an overdose, possibly from a pill the   
   men supplied. The Miami-Dade Medical Examiner’s Office said   
   Monday it is conducting further tests, and no cause of death has   
   been determined.   
      
   The arrests come as Miami Beach police and city officials have   
   been grappling with the overwhelming spring break crowds,   
   instituting an 8 p.m. curfew aimed at cracking down on rowdy   
   revelers on the streets. In recent weeks, South Beach has seen   
   brawls, crowd stampedes and police confrontations involving the   
   use of pepper balls.   
      
   Miami Beach police have made over 1,000 arrests since February   
   and at least five officers have been hurt on the job, according   
   to the department. Interim City Manager Raul Aguila, on   
   Saturday, called for the curfew to “contain the overwhelming   
   crowd of visitors and the potential for violence, disruption and   
   damage to property” during what has at times been a chaotic   
   spring break period.   
      
   The charges Collier and Taylor face are far more serious:   
   burglary with battery, sexual battery, petty theft and the   
   fraudulent use of a credit card. If the drug they gave her is   
   proven to have played a role in her death, the men could   
   potentially face a manslaughter or murder charge.   
      
   The victim, a 24-year-old woman visiting from Pennsylvania, was   
   staying at the Albion Hotel, 1650 James Ave.   
      
   Both men, who hail from Greensboro, North Carolina, were booked   
   into a Miami-Dade jail on Sunday, records show.   
      
   On Monday afternoon, prosecutor Ayana Duncan said the men should   
   be held in jail before trial because they could face even more   
   serious charges depending on the results of the death   
   investigation. “Both are from out of state,” Duncan said. “There   
   is the potential they could otherwise abscond.”   
      
   Miami-Dade Circuit Judge Mindy Glazer agreed — and also   
   expressed alarm about the accusations. “He couldn’t even pick up   
   the phone to call police or 911 after they did whatever it is   
   they did to her,” Glazer said.   
      
   A Miami-Dade assistant public defender, during Monday’s hearing,   
   did not address details of the allegations. Collier and Taylor   
   will face an arraignment in about three weeks.   
      
   According to a Miami Beach arrest report, this is what happened:   
      
   Paramedics and officers were called to the hotel after the woman   
   was discovered “semi nude” and dead in the room’s bed on   
   Thursday. Detectives immediately obtained video surveillance   
   footage of two men entering with the woman, and then leaving   
   less than one hour later.   
      
   Collier fit the description of one of the men, and was found   
   Saturday on Ocean Drive at Eighth Street — an area that has been   
   jam-packed with partiers in recent weeks. He was wearing the   
   same pants seen in the video, according to the report.   
      
   He confessed to police that he and Taylor met the woman at a   
   local restaurant. Collier claimed that Taylor gave the girl a   
   “green pill” as they walked on Ocean Drive. It was unclear from   
   the arrest report whether she took the pill willingly, or if she   
   was given it surreptitiously.   
      
   Collier told police that he believed the drug was Percocet, a   
   powerful pain reliever, a Miami Beach detective testified during   
   Monday’s bond hearing.   
      
   “Obviously, we sent it to the lab,” Miami Beach Detective Luis   
   Alsina told the judge. “We don’t know if it was fentanyl or some   
   other narcotic.”   
      
   Collier said “that he went along with [Taylor] as they planned   
   to have sex with the victim,” according to the report.   
      
   Walking into the hotel, the detective testified, the woman was   
   staggering enough that Taylor had to hold her up as they walked   
   into the elevator. “The defendant was holding her from behind,   
   holding her by the neck so she could stand,” Alsina said.   
      
   At the hotel, Collier claimed, they each had sex with the woman,   
   and at one point, Taylor forced himself on her as she appeared   
   to be unconscious, the report said.   
      
   “The fact that the victim was under the influence of alcohol and   
   narcotics, she could not have consented to sex with the   
   defendants,” according to the police report.   
      
   When it became clear the woman was unconscious, the men stole   
   cash, credit cards and her phone and left her in the room   
   “without any concern for her welfare or safety.”   
      
   The men used the stolen credit cards at “various locations” in   
   Miami Beach, according to the report. Police said Taylor was   
   captured on video surveillance using the woman’s credit card at   
   South Beach Liquors. When he was arrested, police found the   
   woman’s phone and green pills, the report said.   
      
   An earlier version of this story incorrectly identified the   
   surname of the Miami-Dade prosecutor on the case. The correct   
   name is Ayana Duncan.
