[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Confirmed that it was carbon monoxide that killed him.

[quote]Miller Gardner, the 14-year-old son of the longtime Yankees player Brett Gardner, died of carbon monoxide poisoning while on vacation with his family last month, the Costa Rican authorities said on Thursday.

A toxicology report after his death found high levels of carboxyhemoglobin, an indicator of carbon monoxide in the blood, according to a statement from Randall Zúñiga, the director of the Costa Rica Judicial Investigation Agency. Miller Gardner’s test showed a saturation of 64 percent, he said, adding that anything over 50 percent was lethal.

Mr. Zúñiga said that other tests were also performed, including drug tests, but they were all negative. He said the autopsy report found telltale signs of carbon monoxide poisoning on the organs, and added that the case could be considered closed.

Miller and his family were staying at a resort in Costa Rica. The family said in a statement released through the Yankees last month that Miller had died on March 21 “after falling ill along with several other family members while on vacation.”

“He passed away peacefully in his sleep,” the family said.

The authorities said the family was staying in Manuel Antonio, a resort area on the central Pacific Coast of Costa Rica.

[b]The authorities said at a news conference on Wednesday that the family’s room at the resort was next to a room with machinery and said that contamination may have occurred as a result.[/b]

The resort where the family stayed, Arenas Del Mar Beachfront & Rainforest Resort, did not respond to a request for comment after the toxicology results.[/quote]

I guess we really should bring carbon monoxide detectors while on vacation, and refuse rooms adjacent to utility room. It does not seem to be a low rent resort, why don't they install these cheap devices? It is not the first time a tourist was killed in these rooms.[/quote]

Wow, it is a $700-$1300/night dig. I hope they are sued to their last penny.[/quote]
