I agree, suspicious. It's to me similar to the scam that timeshare sales persons commit all the time in telling falsehoods then having people sign paperwork that says people agree nothing not in writing counts and verbal promises are not real. I just hope the tainted alcohol stops.
I hope the stupidity stops.
Well, your wishes may come true. Mexico says it is going to crack down on the tainted alcohol it acknowledges makes up 40% of alcohol served:
"The Mexican government has long acknowledged that the nation has a problem with adulterated alcohol. A 2017 report by Euromonitor International found 36% of the alcohol consumed in the country is illegal, meaning it is sold or produced under unregulated circumstances and potentially dangerous.
The study, done in collaboration with the nation’s Tax Administration Service, found that was an improvement from two years earlier, when 43% was illegal."
"The president of Mexico’s health commission, Sen. Salvador López Brito, said in an interview that the legislature is working on an “initiative to improve the controls and inspections for tainted alcohol at resorts.”
And, more stories coming out. Sounding a lot more like Bill Cosby's repeated denials:
"Four days
before Abbey Conner was found floating face down in a pool at a Mexican resort, Mary Jo Kuhn waded over to a swim-up bar
in the same complex.
On her second drink, she blacked out.
Four days
after Conner was pulled from the water, Meghan Gordon and her boyfriend were sitting on stools
at the same swim-up bar where Conner and her brother had been drinking tequila on a family vacation. Throughout the afternoon, a friendly bartender served Gordon and her boyfriend a couple of mixed drinks, then two rounds of tequila shots.
Neither can remember what happened next — vomiting and being escorted away by hotel security.
The two incidents are among more than three dozen that have surfaced in the wake of a
Milwaukee Journal Sentinel investigation this month into the death of 20-year-old Abbey Conner at the Iberostar Paraiso del Mar in Playa del Carmen in January."

Story.
Given these facts alone, this would lead to a criminal investigation in the U.S. Sorry, but that's true.
