What happened to this California family?

maybe, but "has cell service' is an unlikely requirement for a hike.

Yes, some of the most popular scenic hikes have no cell service. We hiked all over Hawaii this summer and most trails had no cell service.

How would 911 work in an area with no cell service?

Pp. I guess I’m dumb but honestly thought that there was some way it could work even if a normal call wouldn’t work. If there’s truly zero service then no, but I thought in areas where there’s not enough service for a normal call but still SOME service, then I thought 911 got prioritized or something.

I guess it’s a good thing I don’t go out hiking in areas with no cell service

Pp here. Sounds like a 911 call very well could have worked even if they had no signal-they do apparently work even if you have no bars:

This is an absolute reminder to people that YOU HAVE NO BARS. There isn't magic to how cell technology works especially now with unlimited data/roaming. If you can't connect to a tower you out of luck. Done. Nada. Zero. 911 isn't able to breach technology.

How people don't understand this is amazing to me.

I think some people confuse “little service” with no service. This summer we were in Sequoia National Park and once you’re in that park there is nothing. Absolutely no signal of any type at all. Your phone will not show any bars, any tiny little connection to any tower because there are no towers close enough for anywhere in that park to connect. Even at the visitors center near the entrance there wasn’t cell service, only wifi they operated. We were 25 minutes out of the park before any cell service returned.

I'm betting cyanide and Mom wasn't in on it. Hence her trying to crawl to get help.

Or something along these lines. People who think all three plus the dog all died of heat stroke, ridiculous.

Exactly.

I’d put money on the dad having cyanide in the canteen. I just wonder if he forced the mom to drink it, or if he tricked her into taking sip. After she ran and died, he gave it to the baby and dog. Then he took a swig and sat down to die.

Brutal.

She was found only 30 yards from the rest of the family so she didn’t make it very far. Is cyanide that quick acting?

At least according to Wikipedia it is:

Cyanide has a bitter taste that can’t easily be hidden. How did he get the dog to drink the water? Dogs will turn their nose at poisonous foods.

There are tell tale signs of cyanide poisoning. Not it.

BS.

Dogs are poisoned quite regularly.

Plus, PP is wrong. There are very few, actually. This or something like it has to be what happened. Tragic and sad, but much more likely than the ridiculous scenarious being tossed around here.

I know someone who poisoned himself with arsenic. Seconds after he swallowed the arsenic, he clutched his chest, coughed, collapsed, and was dead. (I know this because it was all on video. He did it in court after hearing a guilty verdict against him.) My point is that there are fast-acting poisons that don’t leave outward, visible signs. I’m sure it would show up on the toxicology report.
