[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Can someone please explain about this "lobby alcohol?"[/quote]

Bar in the lobby? Sounds like they were hanging out and drinking for hours. It sucks they weren't cut off at any point, but the drinking age in DR is 18 so it was legal.[/quote]

Ok. Thanks. 
Someone several pages back  said something about how young adults should be taught to never drink the alcohol in the lobby, or something like that.   I've never been to DR or anywhere like that, so I wasn't sure what that was about.[/quote]

Does the reports says she was also drinking? Didn't read the details as with most mystery news stories. Could that group have finished drinking at the disco (??) and we're out of alcohol and decided to drink alcohol which can be found at the hotel lobby? Maybe no one has reported that and perhaps it doesn't even matter in this story. But was there any foul in that alcohol that was possibly consumed by the young woman (if she drank if there's video of it?)?[/quote]

I didn’t read any details of the case but I’m going to post in here with random speculation. Nice addition to this post. Perhaps read a news story before you try to enlighten us with your wisdom. [/quote]

It is common knowledge among travelers to DR not to drink the alcohol in hotel lobby. Why can't that be an area of speculation if it already hasn't been ruled out? [/quote]

Because all the other young people were fine, and no one forced her to go swimming in the ocean when it was dark and she was intoxicated. [/quote]

Not everyone gets sick from alcohol from same place. Nor does anyone ( at least it doesn't seem to have been reported) know if other things were consumed or her alcohol was tainted but not others. Were you expecting DR police or resort folks to fess up and ruin their travel industry? Were those two guys strangers to that group of 5 women? How do you know they didn't do something? Nor do you know if she had eaten something earlier that also could have affected any alcohol consumed with before or after. Did she actually go in water? How would that 24yr old guy who said he passed out know if she didn't continue walking on shore but something else happened? There are still many unknown details.[/quote]
