TL;DR Summary

The luxury hotel in Mexico where an American couple was found dead earlier this week ignored repeated signs of a possible gas leak — and had even disabled carbon monoxide detectors earlier this year, according to a report. Staff at the Hyatt-owned Rancho Pescadero reportedly knew and complained about gas leaks believed to be escaping from a system feeds outdoor fire pits in the months leading up to Abby Lutz and John Heathco’s death inside their hotel room. In the wake of the two tourists’ death, employees of the hotel have begun to protest about the unsafe working environment since their complaints about the gas leak have been unanswered. Despite the employees’ claims, a spokesperson for Hyatt told The Post in a statement Friday that neither gas nor carbon monoxide appears to be the blame for Lutz and Heathco’s deaths.
