You know, there really isn’t anyone to cheer for in this story, is there. The parents didn’t properly supervise the child, they didn’t secure their pool, and now, they stick the child in a nursing home. The EMTs didn’t know when to quit trying to revive the baby, and the cop certainly doesn’t come across well.
I wish people would read the whole article; the grandparents own the pool in their backyard; they were not at home at the time; the mother of the baby was at home when he slipped out; the grandparents have legal custody and make regular visits to see the little boy; 911 was called by the mother after she jumped in and pulled him out of the water; the reason he is in the assisted facility isn’t specified as opposed to home care but might be a requirement of previous agreements between insurers and health care personnel.
Only the officer’s lawyer said anything about the pool not meeting safety requirements.
