Were I to have to live with this - losing both (all) my kids - I'm not sure I could do it.
I'm guessing the woman could not swim. Otherwise I can't imagine not going after them - even were it to my own demise...
You should have seen the vehicle. It had evidently been washed off the roadway into a field that was very uneven. The rubber on the front right was missing. Concrete, and rubbish littered the place. Much of the field appeared to be as much as ten feet below the street level. The big tree was in the middle of the lot, it was laying on it’s side, and it’s root structure went up about six feet from the ground. This was obviously full of water the other day. She told authorities she escaped the car, swam to the tree, and left the kids clinging there to go get help.
You tell me if little kids can battle the water and hold on in 70-90MPH winds and waves. Hypothermia would get to them in short order. Heck, she’s lucky to be alive.
She told authorities she swam to the man’s home, knocked on the front door, and tried to break into the back with a brick.
