Should influencers be allowed to sue to block public records requests?

Tragic for her. Her deadbeat husband was betting on basketball rather than parenting. He’s criminally negligent and lucky he isn’t being charged.

PP here. I can definitely see this. But she is getting hammered just for being an 'influencer'.

She should be hammered for exploiting her child and not having a fence around the pool.

She is monetizing her "happy family" and her "parenting." She put it all out there, repeatedly for money. She doesn't then get to be shocked and offended there is extra scrutiny here. Especially when it turns out her "perfect happy family" was really just for show. They didn't properly protect their children from a known hazard and her DH seems like a sperm-donor father who isn't engaged in parenting.

He clearly wasn’t attentive for those 9 minutes but he was home with a toddler and newborn while she was out for lunch with friends. Doesn’t sound like a father not engaged in parenting. I bet if you tracked cell phone / screen use of mothers at home with their kids you would find just as many non attentive gaps in parenting. It isn’t uncommon for parents to scroll or watch something while parenting.

Your post is utter bull shite and you know it. Scrolling on your phone while your kids are playing near you is one thing. Ignoring a 3 year old who is outside alone by a pool while you are busy placing bets is criminal negligence.

Are you getting paid by this family? The way you so dishonestly twist things to make dad seem sympathetic is telling.

Not a single parent I know with a pool would allow a 3 year old to be outside by a pool by themselves. Not a single parent I know has a pool without a safety fence. Not a single parent I know would be ok with the 3 year old being able to slip outside by the pool by themselves.

What makes you think he knew he was by the pool? You realize three years old are mobile, right?

Yet backyard drowning deaths happen all summer long, this isn’t even the most recent death. What does it matter who your particular friends are?

Brady, is that you?

He admitted to police that he knew the boy was outside by the pool. He claimed he was "watching" him from inside, but this was a lie because police had the home video footage of the backyard and Dad couldn't describe a single thing that happened on the video.

So they should be punished extra harshly because you don’t like their lifestyle or career?

Not pp. What a childish response. They are expecting to be treated differently from other people who go through this. That is hypocritical and disgusting. Do you think the father in this case should be charged with neglect?

Taking your eyes off your kid for a few minutes is not neglect. Every parent has done it.

Not with a totally unsecured, fully accessible pool in the backyard. You sound like a terrible parent if you think this is normal parenting.

Normal parenting is not watching your kids eyes wide open 24/7. Do you even have kids?

False equivalence. Did you even minimally babyproof your house? Do you have gates on stairs and chemicals out of reach? Normal parents take normal recommended precautions. This is nothing to do with watching your kid "every second" and everything to do with creating a reasonably safe environment. No reasonable person would consider this a safe environment. I wouldn't even bring my young children to VISIT a house with an unsecured pool.

You’re ripe for a fall off that pedestal.

Again. This is false. Minimal safety precautions as parents don't put one on a "pedestal." This is parenting 101, not a high horse. Did you babyproof your home with young children - yes or no?

I would like the judge to say to her, “oh, so you think there is too much public interest in the death of your child? Maybe you should have thought about that before selling your family for profit.”

Does the public really need to see video footage of the child drowning??? No, they don't.

She is trying to block the death certificate, the 911 call, and the police report. All things that are routinely released in court proceedings, etc. At any point in her life prior to this happening, she would have viewed this much interest in her as a reflection of her awesomeness and her being a “girl boss.”

If my child died, the public would not care because I don’t put my life out there on sale for the world. She does.

But yes, you are right I absolutely loathe influencers and struggle to find any empathy when things go poorly for them. My first thought was that she was probably filming/editing/prepping while her unattended three year old wandered outside.

She was being stalked in very disturbing ways after this happened. I don't blame her for trying to keep it all private.

Stalking is an illegal activity. People's interest in what happened here and the outrage that her dolt of a husband isn't being charged is not stalking. It's a remarkable case because of the arrogance and criminally negligent behavior of the parents in this case.

Quite the opposite. Drowning is the #1 cause of accidental death in children ages 1-4. All the more reason to take even basic steps to secure your pool. It only highlights the level of negligence. This was a known risk. Not a freak accident.

So why is it being repeated that nobody the poster knows would ever do this? What does that even matter?

Not at all. Securing your pool is as basic as putting a gate at the top of your stairs.

Are you paid by this family? This isn't just taking their eyes off their child for a few minutes and you know it. Your posts are intentionally misleading. You are dishonest.

These are parents who didnt bother to put up a safety fence around their pool. They have 2 children under 3 years of age. These are parents who weren't concerned that their 3 year old could open the door to the pool. Most people who have pools have safety fences around them and additional locks on the door that leads to the outside near the pool. Not these idiots. Dad was busy betting on basketball for at least 9 minutes while he knew the 3 year old was outside by the pool by himself.
