A couple on vacation celebrating a birthday was mysteriously found dead in their hotel room in a resort town in Mexico.
Lindsay and Nick Jordan, who had traveled from Reno, Nevada, to Cabo San Lucas to celebrate Lindsay’s 46th birthday with friends, were found deceased in their hotel room on July 14, as reported by the Reno Gazette-Journal this week.
Their friends, concerned when the couple didn’t appear one morning to discuss plans, went to check on them. However, they were turned away by hotel staff and police officers, according to the couple’s son, Deven Simms, 21.
Deven has reviewed medical records and police reports and said that local authorities suspect his parents’ deaths were drug-related. However, he noted inconsistencies in the documents, stating, “The amounts of what was found and tests are different in every document.”
Deven added that his father did not drink and he does not believe his parents overdosed on drugs. However, it is not possible to have independent autopsies done in the US because authorities did not rule the deaths suspicious. “I know now we will never know,” he said.
Haley, another of the couple’s children, mentioned that her parents were traveling with work friends and had shared pictures from the resort in a family group chat during the first two days of the trip. “Not too bad from our room for our long weekend!” Lindsay had written.
The last photo shared by the couple showed them smiling and having lunch at the resort. “They were so happy to be going on this trip,” Haley told the newspaper. “It’s all my mom talked about.”
Deven received the devastating news in a phone call from their work friends and then informed his siblings.
