Discussion: Puerto Rico Governor Orders Probe Into Deaths Reported Since Hurricane Maria

I guess better late than never. But I would respectfully suggest PR you need a new governor. Why? He should have been on this like a licked stamp from before Maria hit. It is his obligation as governor to look after the welfare of the commonwealth’s citizens. Anything less is dereliction of duty. No apparatus in place to gather this information? Hurricanes in the Caribbean are not new. What were you waiting on the rapture?

"Every death is a horror, but if you look at a real catastrophe like Katrina and you look at the tremendous – hundreds and hundreds of people that died – and you look at what happened here with, really, a storm that was just totally overpowering … no one has ever seen anything like this.

“16 people certified. Sixteen people versus in the thousands. You can be very proud of all of your people and all of our people working together. Sixteen versus literally thousands of people. You can be very proud. Everybody watching can really be very proud of what’s taken place in Puerto Rico.”

Cockholster then gave himself an A-plus and a 10:30 tee time.
