Ngaba kuyenzeka ngempazamo ukuba bobabini uNathaniel Holmes kunye noCynthia Day basweleke bobabini ngaxeshanye kwigumbi labo lasehotele?
Ngaba inika umdla into yokuba uninzi lwabo baswelekileyo bagula emva kokusela kwimini yehotele?
Ngaba kunzima ukutsala yonke imixholo kwii-minibar ukuze kuvavanywe ukuba ngaba iziqulatho zezona zinto zibangela oku kugqabhuka kokufa kwabakhenkethi?
Ngaba kuphosakele ukulindela imvo yongxamiseko xa kujongwa inani lokufa kwabakhenkethi abafunyenwe kumagumbi ehotele ngexesha elifutshane kangako kwilizwe elinye ababeneempawu ezifanayo ngaphambili?
Ngaba oku kuya kuchaphazela ukhenketho kwiRiphabhliki yaseDominican?
Ungaya?
