John and Jaime retreated to their room, where they and two members of their wedding party were having a nightcap. A half-hour later, around 2:30 a.m., there was a knock on the door. John Dodds said it was Griffin, asking again if he could join their party. John said he told him they weren't having a party, and Griffin departed amicably.
Another half-hour brought another knock on the door: Griffin again wanted to know if he could party with the Dodds.
"At that point it was kind of strange, because I had already told him twice we didn't have a party going on," John said. "This time, I was pretty stern with him. I really felt like he was invading our personal space."
AN UNWANTED CALL
A little later, the phone in the Dodds' room rang.
"I answered the phone and it was him (Griffin)," Jaime said. "He said, 'I know your (bridesmaids) are all out partying. When they come back, they're mine. Especially your husband's sister. I'm waiting for her. I've got my eye on her.'"
Jaime said she began screaming into the phone at Griffin, telling him to leave the women alone. She then called her bridesmaids, who were out, warning them to be careful when they returned to the hotel.
A little later, some time around 5 a.m., John Dodds said there was another knock on their door. John looked through the peephole and saw Griffin.
