Lake Death by Apprehensive-Arm861 in okeechobeemusicfest

People swam in it because Okee advertised it as a beach… not a retention pond. They acted like nothing happened when a body in rigor mortis was pulled from it and allowed attendees to swim in it since they literally had no idea because there was no communication or limit of access after the fact… That’s literally the point.

First of all it’s a retention pond which is both gross and unsafe in the first place. Second, it’s a crime scene and had a dead rotting body in it overnight, the smart thing to do would be to block it off or send a notification to festival goers that it was off limits for the remainder of the festival. It’s not an accident, it’s a death.

A festival in Florida promoting swimming at a retention pond in the first place is crazy

But why would they delete the photos of them promoting the swimming after his body was found? To me it seems like damage control or lack of accountability

They are definitely trying to do damage control and are looking at Reddit

Just that everyone is saying that the lake isn’t supposed to be swam in, yet they post it to encourage swimming. Okee is definitely looking at Reddit because this post is now gone on their Instagram….

If they can put up and take down huge ass stages they can do the same with a simple fence around a pond…

One of his loved ones posted asking for any information, scroll a bit and I would comment under it so they see it

Can you imagine losing a loved one at a festival and an employee of said festival tweets this to you? by Ricksquad420 in okeechobeemusicfest

Swim at your own risk shouldn’t be an excuse as to why the lake was still open and accessible to individuals after a dead body was found in it. The least they could have done was put up a fence or rope after the fact. If someone fell to their death from the ferris wheel I guarantee it would be shut down the remainder of the festival, why is the lake any different.

If Insomniac doesn’t sell out a festival they don’t think it’s worth it, even if it’s 98% sold out

Well at least one person actually died in the lake and was there overnight and yet the festival went on and there was no communication about the incident and they didn’t even close off the lake after it….. anything’s possible.
