Still waiting to hear someone say what was the source of the carbon monoxide

Within 2 weeks of this tragic incident, U.S. authorities knew both the cause of death and the source of the cause of death.

All concerned, Sandals, the independent contractor it hired, the insurers of Sandals and the insurers of the independent contractor, the estates of the victims and their family members, have all lawyered in a big way in both The Bahamas and the U.S. for the mega million dollar lawsuits alleging wrongful death through gross negligence.

Senior U.S. government officials in the Department of State have already told family members that their claims in this matter will not be allowed to get dragged out over decades in the kangaroo court system of The Bahamas.

Fwreddy Boy Mitchell had better tread very carefully here or risk having his diplomatic wings clipped in a way that he won't be able to fly abroad anymore to mingle with his foreign peers and enjoy unlimited extravagance in spending our tax dollars overseas.

Again, as other commenter stated, what was the cause? A/C doesn't cause carbon monoxide, so what did?

It’s a chain of events.

BEC can’t keep the electricity on. So 5 star, all inclusive resorts like Sandals have to rely on generators to provide consistent electricity for its guests. These generator run on gasoline and propane which produces carbon monoxide as a byproduct of combustion. The carbon monoxide was then leaked into the A/C ducts that were proximal to the generators and A/C units. Keep in mind, these are industrial size machines which are capable of producing lethal amounts of carbon monoxide. Furthermore, these machines had been sitting idle for over a year due to the COVID19 pandemic. Their components were obviously not maintained or serviced due to either negligence or a shortage of money. Big mistake!

The real problem here is that the Bahamas government has no operational safety and hazard codes. There is no yearly, state controlled inspection of these machines. The Fire Department of the RBPF should be responsible for building inspections such as elevator maintenance, fire escapes, sprinkler systems, fire extinguishers, smoke detectors, and carbon monoxide detectors. And if a building isn’t up to “code” then that business shouldn’t be allowed to renew their business license and operate.

But of-course this will never happen because the Bahamas is a banana republic ran by dummies.

Someone told you this? It's certainly a logical chain for *some* event but is it what actually happened in this event?? If it were the case it should have certainly been very easy to determine since a machine emitting carbon monoxide doesnt miraculously stop doing that overnight. Im assuming as a crime scene noone would have been authorized to touch anything including maintainenance.. that is a big assumption. And Sandals came out with as very strong statement in the following weeks that the cause wasn't them or theirs. Something as easy to check as a generator should have precluded them making such a statement. But literally, "who knows".

This sounds fishy to say the least. Who will blow the cover on this mystery??????

U.S. Department of State when it decides it is the right time to squeeze Short Fatso Davis in a big way. The enormous legal claims against The Bahamas government and others are still being carefully crafted by high-powered U.S. lawyers for the victims' families.

Why was the Hotel not immediately Closed … indeed why is it still Ope, as in the absence of explanation as to cause, more could die?!?

In the best of worlds. But this is cover up, dont hurt the golden goose nation.

That aside, Id be very surprised if another incident happened. Noone else even reported feeling ill, the investigation would have uncovered that, people are just more than willing to come forward to link their near misses for the news media. So it does look like it was isolated to that building. It should have (and hopefully) triggered a review of all possible sources across the property to prevent like incidents.

Speaking to a travel agency owner in Canada he said that travel agents are now very reluctant to book people to Sandals Resorts in The Bahamas. There has been no satisfactory explanation of what happened and Sandals itself remains mostly silent. There is no idea what,if anything, that Sandals is doing to prevent further such incidents. After a huge number of initial news story headlines overseas "Go to The Bahamas and Die" there have been no reassuring follow up stories. All so sad for Exuma and for our country.
