Mom of Navy SEAL candidate who died after 'hell week' says tragedy could have been prevented
April 1, 2022
San Diego -- In February, Regina Mullen learned that her son Kyle, a Navy SEAL candidate, unexpectedly died just hours after completing grueling "hell week" training.
"I wake up every night thinking of him, thinking of how he died probably not breathing," Regina Mullen told ABC News in an exclusive interview.
Before his Feb. 4 death, Kyle Mullen, a 24-year-old former football player from Manalapan Township, New Jersey, had completed "hell week," an exhausting five-and-a-half days of underwater and tactical training. It's designed to push SEAL candidates to their physical and mental limits, in which trainees are constantly cold, hungry, sleep-deprived and wet.
Those who drop out during "hell week," or "ring the bell," must wait two years to try again, but Kyle completed the training.
Regina said her son sent her a text that read, "hell week secured," so she picked up her phone and gave him a call. As a nurse, she said his labored breathing was concerning.
The last words he said to her were, "I love you."
Mullen's death is under investigation, and no official cause of death has been released.
Regina Mullen said she believes her son was abandoned right when he was most in need.
"I'm told that the medical team was let go at 12 noon, and someone was on call. And they didn't answer," she said.
She expressed frustration, as she has yet to receive her son's autopsy results and still does not know his cause of death.
From her training as a nurse, Regina Mullen said she believes Kyle had SIPE, or swimming-induced pulmonary edema. This occurs when fluid builds up in the lungs without causing choking.
The majority of SIPE cases clear up within 48 hours, but in rare instances, can be deadly.
"He most likely couldn't breathe, and he probably suffocated from his own bodily fluids," she said.

Mark, thanks — statistics are one thing, but reading the actual stories really brings home the tragedy unfolding before us. I’ve been doing a deep dive into this issue, and now see that most of what we think we know is bogus and harmful. Like many of us, I’m going through my own personal transformation here as I process all this… thanks for all you do in helping us sift through the propaganda we’ve been bombarded with. BTW, I found Peter Duesberg’s book on audible.com!! Listening to it now.
The evidence is overwhelming. But authorities everywhere are either stupid, evil or so proud they can't give up their need to be right and not to ever budge from their position. Or is it something else?
