Was the missing crewman even around when the helo arrived?

I did not look to see if someone posted this earlier I was just too lazy to even care.

Now I have been very close to hypothermia before and stuff starts going all crazy in your head but this is wild. I wonder if the guy was even close to the rescued individual or if he was hallucinating when they picked him up.

[qoute]With Carrillo drifting into hypothermic shock after nearly five hours, the arrival of a Coast Guard rescue helicopter was a blessing, Madruga said Friday. He told the rescue swimmer to "take Byron first" and watched the panicked crewman being loaded into a dangling basket.

But when he reached the helicopter himself, Carrillo was nowhere to be seen, Madruga said during the first day of public testimony on the incident before a board of Coast Guard investigators.[/quote]
