Anyone here familiar with the case of Abraham Alexis? I was digging through some old missing persons cases and stumbled across his story. What puzzles me is the conditions of his workplace at the time. I read that river work can be pretty dangerous, especially at night or during bad weather. Does anyone know if there were any reports on the safety protocols on that barge back in 1998? Wondering if factors like poor lighting or lack of proper safety gear could have been a part of the issue. It seems odd that someone could just vanish without a trace, even in the river, and makes me think there might be more to the story. Any thoughts or further insights would be appreciated!
Hey everyone, I've been digging into the Abraham Alexis case, and something that got me thinking is the lack of safety protocols on barges at the time. I'm curious if anyone knows what kind of safety measures were standard back in '98 for barge workers along the Mississippi. Given how dangerous that job can be, were there specific rules or equipment that might have been lacking? It's so strange that his body was never found—almost like there might have been some oversight or negligence. Maybe someone familiar with maritime work back then could shed some light on this? It feels like any small piece of the puzzle could help in understanding what happened to him.
Have any of you looked into the safety protocols on those barges from the late '90s? I can't stop thinking about how Abraham Alexis went missing while working on a barge, and whether things might have been different if certain safety measures were in place. Were life vests a requirement back then? I imagine the work was pretty demanding and dangerous, especially if safety standards weren't what they are now. It just seems like there's so much more to uncover about the conditions onboard — maybe something was overlooked? Anyone familiar with maritime safety practices from that time who can shed some light here?
