Experts could not be sure of the source of the poisonous gas that killed Burnley couple John Cooper and his wife Susan
A pathologist has told an inquest that a Burnley couple who suddenly fell ill after staying in an Egyptian hotel room died of carbon monoxide poisoning.
Home Office pathologist Dr Charles Wilson gave a cause of death for Mr Cooper as carbon monoxide toxicity and heart disease and for Mrs Cooper, carbon monoxide toxicity. Dr Wilson said: “What you have here is a situation whereby the trajectory of the Coopers’ deaths, the circumstances surrounding it, how that evolved is not compatible with natural disease.
Prof Chilcott, a toxicology expert, told the hearing carbon monoxide was present in the blood samples from the bodies but he could not be certain of the levels. He said the levels were sufficient to suggest “severe exposure” to carbon monoxide. Prof Chilcott replied: “In theory, yes. There are occupational limits about how much you are able to inhale.” He said the rules in the UK are 100 parts per million over an eight-hour exposure.
Dr Gent replied: “I have no idea sir. I have looked at the documentation to identify the likely or even possible source.” Mr Adeley continued: “We are down to Sherlock Holmes, once you have excluded everything else, what you have left is the truth.”
