The Costa Rica hotel room where the hero of the Yankees Brett Gardner and his family were on vacation before the death of their 14 -year -old son, Miller, was blocked by the public.
The developments, first reported by TMZ, came in the middle of the fears of the Costa Rican authorities that the adolescent died of carbon monoxide poisoning.
According to an abundance of prudence, the room in question was blocked until further notice: “The Arenas del Mar Beachfront & Rainforest Resort in TMZ in TMZ.
“Guest safety is our highest priority, and we regularly spend our protocols to ensure that we respect the highest operational standards.”
It appeared that an investigation revealed that there were “high levels of carbon monoxide” in the family’s hotel room, said Randall Zuniga, director general of the OIJ, at a virtual press conference.
“It is also important to note that, next to the room (of the family), there is a specialized machine room, from which it is believed that a form of contamination can have reached the rooms, potentially causing the incident,” said Zuniga.

He continued: “Nevertheless, the initial survey results indicate that the incident was due to this contamination, with levels of up to 600 parts per million – when the appropriate level in this case should be zero.”
Carbon monoxide poisoning has not yet been confirmed as the official cause of death, those responsible awaits the results of final toxicology in the middle of the current survey.
Zuniga reiterated that the agency was working in tandem with the FBI in the United States while “awaiting the final results of forensic toxicology”.
Miller was discovered not to breathe in his room on March 21 when he was traveling with the rest of the Gardner family in the country of Central America.
The tragedy occurred after Brett, a former winner of the World Series with the Yankees, Jessica, Miller and her eldest son Hunter, 16, all suffered from severe stomach cramps, vomiting and diarrhea after dinner in an outdoor restaurant the previous night.
The desperate doctors fought in vain for 30 minutes to try to launch the heart of Miller, 14, after being found by a frantic member of the family who raised the alarm, revealed exclusively.
Brett and his wife Jessica shared a torn tribute to their son on Monday, saying: “The Pass of the Void that Miller leaves in the heart of his family, friends, teammates, teachers, coaches and others will be felt for years.
“The Gardner family will forever cherish the places they have visited, the people they met, the friends they have made and the memories they created together.
“Miller’s time here with them was brief, but his mind will continue through those who were touched by the way he lived.
“In this period of unimaginable loss, the family prays so that joy and healing come to others who share their sorrow.”
The first reports suggest that the results of the autopsy could not be prepared publicly for about two months, because a murderous war of drug gangs in Costa Rica caused serious delay in the procedure.
Juan Pablo Alvarado Garcia, of the Judicial Investigation Agency, admitted Tuesday on Dailymail.com: “We hike in homicides while these drug gangs are fighting for the territory and each of them needs an autopsy.
“I can confirm that an autopsy was carried out on Miller, but the complete analysis and the results, as in each of them, will take at least two to three months due to these constant killings causing a backlog. It is reality.
