During a seven-month investigation into reported druggings in Chicago’s comedy scene, several people told the Reader they’d heard about a man being drugged at iO Theater’s 2015 holiday party. Though we tried, we were unable to identify the comedian before publishing the story. Once the story ran, however, the man reached out to the Reader via e-mail.
He feared that going to the police would be fruitless and might harm iO’s reputation, so instead of filing a police report, Jordan mentioned the incident to iO’s bar staff and told them to keep their eyes peeled.
