The toxicology results in the case of 14-year-old Miller Gardner, who died while vacationing in Costa Rica, revealed a carboxyhemoglobin saturation level of 64 percent. This level is well above the lethal threshold of 50 percent, confirming that Miller’s death was due to carbon monoxide poisoning. The Judicial Investigative Agency (OIJ) of Costa Rica conducted the investigation, which included additional tests like drug screenings that all returned negative. High levels of carbon monoxide, up to 600 parts per million, were detected in the family’s hotel room, where contamination may have originated from a nearby machine room. The OIJ worked with the FBI and local authorities to address the contamination issue. Miller’s death occurred on March 21, and the final autopsy report is expected within two months.

Mar 28 “Among patients with CAC=0, cancer was the leading cause of death, the total mortality rate was low (women, 1.8; men, 1.5), and the CVD mortality rate was exceedingly low for women (0.3) and men (0.3).”

Apr 2 Waking up so early to hear my husband crying and learning that a close friend committed suicide in his Ram truck from carbon monoxide. 32 is young to die. I’m destroyed and I never saw the warning signs. This act is so crazy. So many people today are destroyed.
I feel bad for his

2h When carboxyhemoglobin saturation exceeds 50%, it is considered lethal. In Gardner’s case, the test showed a saturation of 64%.

14h I wish she had been my spouse’s doctor in 2021. I called 911 when his O2 Sat went below 70 percent and the hospital murdered him after bilking the government for at least $500K in a week.
