The kid she was supervising even told the lifeguards she never came up......

Since she was at the bottom and never surfaced I suspect her bathing suit got hung up on something on the bottom of the pool

    Drowning victims don't quickly pop to the surface and float. Staying down two days in that sort of water is no surprise.

    2 DAYS??? Was it the maint. man that cleans the pool who found her in the catch net of his "leaf-master"?

    Although always described as a cowboy, Roswellnative generally acts as a righter of wrongs or bodyguard of some sort, where he excels thanks to his resourcefulness and incredible gun prowesses.

    That must've been one nasty * pool if you couldn't see someone on the bottom.

    The article says the health department came out Monday and Tuesday to conduct an inspection of the facilities, with the body not being discovered Tuesday night.

    Public pool inspections are routine matters that don't take a great amount of time, so I'm wondering why they came out two consecutive days. Was the pool unable to pass inspection and she was found as the staff was draining the pool to completely replace the water in attempt to pass?

    Years and years ago I worked as a Swimming instructor for the Kiawanis Clubs of Kansas City. We pulled Life guard duty and every hour on the hour we emptied the pool of people and did a bottom sweep (swimming underwater) one man in each lane (olympic pool) from one end to the other. Seems as If someone wasnt doing their job.

    inspectors = political appointees....pool staff = govt works programs...life guards = bikini spotters...kid that reported her missing = smartest person in the neighborhood

    The smartest one definitely wasn't the parent of that kid.

    What action did they take when they found their 4 year old unattended and were told the babysitter had failed to resurface?

    Its a "state run" pool. Have you ever seen anything run by the government that didn't cost someone their life? Yeah, a government at its best.

    That's a dead body, not a rat.

    That is the most irresponsible and utterly incomplacent thing that I have ever heard of.
    The boy did good, no one listened.
    The staff at closing time orders everyone out and does an inspection of the pool and area before lock up.
    Was the pool closed on Monday ?
    Hopefully the investigation will go somewhat better.
    This is sad beyond measure, 5 kid's do not have a Mother now [V]

    Wanna know who found the body?

    A couple of teenagers who broke into the pool after hours found it.

    How effing pathetic is that?

    Of course, this happened in Massachusetts.

    One of the least free states and most overburdened with Big Brother policies intended to suck every drop of life out of every man, woman and child.

    We need more swimming pool laws.
    That way law abiding citizens will have to wait 24 hours after eating before they go in the pool. They ill have to wear gov't approved safe swimwear too.
    It will make everything much safer.
