I missed the one after me.

Hopefully they just went to sleep and felt nothing.

And thanks also due to Jao Xiden who keeps the southern border open so the fentanyl can make it anywhere in the country and kill people.

No idea how hot it was but if three adults fell asleep in a hot poorly ventilated car, they could buy the farm.

Hampstead... Speedway Gas Station that closes at midnight so their site says. This is off Coastal Federal Hiway 17— if they came from Lejeune and took the ferry to go South to Wilmington (the potential liberty city, Marines on a pass) they would come back that way. It’s 36 +/- miles from base. Perhaps all 3 had some beers and could not return to base that way and took a nap. Damn hot— left the car running with A/C on— monoxide.

This is Pender County, NC-— their “case” for coroner who might be incompetent or a funeral home director- same thing.
All speculation posting here. But it is a really damn shame 3 young men— key elements of a rifle company command— all dead at the same time. This should have NCIS on it like NOW! Blood chemistry the works. Really terrible. God Bless them and Semper Fidelis!

Only if the Windows were closed, the engine on, and probably the air conditioner on. It’s hot as hell hear on the East Coast.

But even so. The chances of all three dying of Suddenly at the same time are nil.

I vote for fentanyl.

My first thought exactly. It takes an extremely small amount to kill you. I recall a story about a deputy who nearly died just from inhaling vapors off a stash he found in a suspect's vehicle.

Virtually certain it is fentanyl.

Carfentanil? (no pun intended). Much more powerful than fentanyl. There are more powerful fentanyl analogues than carfentanil also. Suicide pact? Have to wait for toxicology. What a shame, but 3 at the same time with no sign of foul play : inadvertent poisoning or group suicide. IMHO, of course. Heartfelt condolences to all people related.

I am certainly not an expert on sudden untimely death.
But I once knew this woman from Arkansas

If no drugs, sleeping with motor running on a road trip? CO2?

No, not only.

People have had faulty exhaust systems, or otherwise in the car that makes it easy. Believe me, it has happened. I got a story 2nd-hand, and also 3rd-hand thru a real medical show.

” I recall a story about a deputy who nearly died just from inhaling vapors off a stash he found in a suspect’s vehicle.”

That would be false. There’s a lot of hysterical syncope involved when LE meets up with a drug scene.

Carbon monoxide (exhaust) leak in a closed car?
