Miller Gardner's Death Officially Linked to Carbon Monoxide Poisoning

Costa Rican authorities confirm toxicology results showing lethal gas exposure, while the hotel disputes contamination claims.

Overview

  • Toxicology tests revealed a carboxyhemoglobin saturation of 64% in Miller Gardner's blood, far exceeding the lethal threshold of 50%.
  • Authorities identified a machine room adjacent to the family's hotel room as the probable source of carbon monoxide contamination.
  • The Arenas Del Mar Beachfront & Rainforest Resort denies lethal gas levels in the guest room, attributing contamination to the machine room only.
  • Initial theories of food poisoning and asphyxiation were ruled out following autopsy and toxicology findings.
  • The investigation, supported by the FBI, continues as the Gardner family requests privacy and encourages donations to the Make-A-Wish Foundation in Miller's memory.
