Dominican republic news: American Couple Found Dead at Dominican Republic Resort

Just went to Puerto Plata in March. Had a good time and chilled with some cool locals. Like many have stated already in here, you have to be smart and be aware of your surroundings like any other place.
i know a fire ass youngin up there.
she stay sending me pics to help her find a dude.
 
Yea man I’ll sit it out for now although I ve been meaning to get my sex vacation on
i was supposed to go in May but had to change...
i dont be around shit like that...if someone is with me...i always make sure they are comfortable. male or female.
im not into all that gangsta shit...but if thats the type vacay you looking for.....bring ya viagra..i know a few people.
 
You from there or have family out there? You sounding like how the pinay ladies be in the Philippines. Lmao. Always playing match maker.
nah.....im black american...but i am or was there so much i just know my way around and ran into alot of women.
i tend to be very respectful so they look at it like i can introduce them to someone who wont be a dick.
i used to hook dudes up but they soiled my name there. so i dont play match maker anymore. most of the dude were dicks....lol

but when you around that many fine ass women....i have yet to see too many dudes that know how to act.
niggas lose they minds
 
Let me first stay on point before my titangraph. People been getting killed out here. It's not alot or worth discussing bc the numbers are very low; extremely low when it comes to tourists. Violent crime is increasing in certain cities like Santo Domingo; and it's including expats sometimes like the stories in this thread. The difference is the gov't would not report it; just like it doesn't report STD's truthfully bc that will effect tourism$$$. 25 years ago those people's families would have had to go to a US office and question their families missing or deaths and wait days or months for the DR to respond, and then the news would only be in one American city newspaper and NOT make national tv news. The difference today vs the past is 80% due to the INTERNET and the popularity the DR now has in the US. A story like this would not have made the news 25 years ago. Now everyone is like I've been to the DR....DAMN, I was just there! Then they on the computer like us discussing it. Things go viral because of how information can get out now obviously.
I live out here in Bavaro. it's still relatively safe out here. Venezuelan invasion, continued anger against Haiti, and watching new buildings constantly go up without them getting paid more seems to be on point for some of their anger. The ones I've talked to acknowledge the gov't is corrupt, but they figure they can't do shit; so they pretty much don't talk at all about revolution or blaming the gov't. They acknowledge it's fucked up and don't expect their gov't will change or change for the better AND they ain't talking about dying to change it; AND they know if you say ill shit about their gov't and get discovered you can easily be killed with No investigation. Aside from the gov't I think only 3 families run the entire country as far as big wealth. They own the gov't. So, in a way it's not even the gov't; but that's a different story, and I'm speaking on hearsay.
Tangent below:
I used to visit Santiago, Santo Domingo, La Romana, Punta Cana, and Higuey and as for y'all speaking on American arrogance (there are two sides. One is the cocky arrogant american that deserves to get their ass whipped. But I learned a different side of the arrogant American once I came here. They (don't mean to stereotype) do not respect low key Americans and think you're soft and will not give you service UNTIL you show you are upset or challenge them. I don't know why this is the case, but American men to them are viewed (according to what they've told me) as banks and softer than Dominican men. I'm speaking on more personal shit like standing in line and people just cutting in front of you in the grocery store, or trying to get someone to fix a broken toilet in an expensive apartment complex, or trying to get an honest price on something that has no price tag. These might not be the best examples, but I'm just saying at some point you have to communicate with others to get a service AND that's when I learned being cool and nice will have you waiting 3 weeks for shit that is done in a day if you show you are really upset. It's just the way. Weird thing is when you show you're upset, they'll smile and respect it and want to shake your hand and invite you over like you're now their friend. So your choice is to carefully choose when it is appropriate to show your anger and when it might be better to be calm and remember you are in a country where the laws and service is not the same AND THEY recognize they can take advantage of you.

im currently shopping for a place in bavaro....
i love the area. im there at least twice a year.
but the main spot is the capital.
zona colonial, and villa mella. two different worlds but it is what it is.
 
as far as the women and american dudes....
i think its an interesting relationship.

its all a game and transactional.

the chicks there DO look at americans as banks because most come there stuntin.
they get with top beauty chicks and end up being what they call a western union Poppi. a nigga who sends money and only fucks when hes there.
thing is....them chicks got like 5 other dudes doing the same thing.
and they all have the same story...they all need a fridge or washing machine or bed or they baby sick. its funny cuz the dudes i used to hang with had a quetionaire......
1. do you have a baby and how often are they sick?
2. do you have a washing machine?
3. do you have a fridge.

lol
its all napart of the game.

the dudes end up catching feelings but finds out later hes just one of many like the borg and then begins to treat the chicks like shit there.

as far as how american dudes and local dude are as soft or whatever......i think its cultural.
imma keep it 100......most dudes i know there will beat a chicks ass in half a breath with no fucks given.
american dudes are hesitant to be too aggressive because we are out of our element and just trynna live the fantasy.
the locals dont take shit because they can always find another chick.,....and the chicks know this. so they are more submissive to the local than the american....simply because they know the americans are not used to the type of hospitality.....even tho its apart of the game.

craziest shit i have heard is a dude would allow his chick to be with an american dude to get money to bring back to him.

check out Cap Cana. $1200 rent, but if you can get with it you're on beach front property in a top notch gated community where everyone who runs shit lives. I don't live there, so I guess I don't run shit here

Lol
I stayed in cap cana once....at sanctuary. Shit was 5star. Easily one of the best places I been....but because of the beach....shit drops.
The property was the shit but the beach was wack..I'm not renting tho.
I was looking to buy in playa coral but politics screwed me and then they tried to sell me something $200k over my budget and said just get a loan for the rest. Smdh
the new construction at ocean house I'm now thinking about or Los corales, or playa turquesa.
I know a cool chick that lives in cap Cana village.

Cocotal is a cool spot in Los Corales. I'm sure you'll do good once you get here. Fucked up thing is how you just can't go to offices of the apartment and get a spot. They force you to go to a realtor here, which makes it so you only see what the realtor wants to show you.

cocotal is nice...its the first place i looked at inn punta cana. i looked at places on the side of the golf course....they were a nice size for the money but it wasnt on the beach.
 
This story is starting to pick up steam. Heard on the news this morning the family is going to do a second autopsy when the bodies get the U.S. from the D.R.

Another could died of an illness in Fiji and the CDC is helping the Fiji gov't investigate.

Pennsylvania woman died at Dominican Republic hotel days before Maryland couple found dead



Five days before a Maryland couple vacationing in the Dominican Republic was found dead in their hotel room, a woman from Pennsylvania died in the same hotel.

Miranda Schaup-Werner collapsed on May 25 after consuming a drink from the minibar at the Grand Bahia Principe Hotel in La Romana, according to Fox News and Pennsylvania TV station WFMZ. The U.S. State Department confirmed her death to USA TODAY.

Schaup-Werner, 41, was celebrating her ninth wedding anniversary with husband Dan Werner, family spokesperson Jay McDonald, her brother-in-law, told multiple news outlets.

"At one point, she was sitting there happily smiling and taking pictures and the next moment she was in acute pain and called out for Dan and she collapsed," McDonald told WFMZ. "He was understandably in shock but the whole thing was just so stunning."

Edward Nathaniel Holmes, 63, and Cynthia Ann Day, 49, arrived at the Bahía Príncipe hotel May 25, hotel complex director Francisco Romero told local media. After they missed their scheduled checkout time on Thursday, hotel staff entered the room and found both bodies unresponsive but no signs of violence, according to a statement from the hotel.

“We are deeply saddened by the incident at one of our hotels in La Romana, Dominican Republic, and want to express our deepest condolences to their family and friends,” the statement read. “The staff immediately contacted the relevant local authorities which have initiated an investigation.”

A spokesman for the Dominican Republic National Police told CNN blood pressure medication was also found in the room.

The bodies were transported to the Dominican National Institute of Forensic Sciences for an exam. An autopsy found they died of respiratory failure and pulmonary edema, which is caused by excess fluid in the lungs

I was just about to post this. Something is going on at that hotel. That's a very strange coincidence
