Travel to Mexico: End in D E A T H
What would make the chief financial officer for the City of Phoenix do something so bizarre?
One theory is a parasite doctors believe he caught on a trip to Mexico several years earlier. The bug can live for years inside the body, travel to the brain and cause seizures and hallucinations symptoms Keogh started suffering a few months after his trip.
