A 25-year-old mother in Tennessee finds herself in hot water with authorities after her very young and unsupervised daughter drowned to death in a swimming pool at a Hendersonville apartment complex. The incident went down on August 12. Police investigated the drowning and determined that the mom was at fault for not “caring or watching” her seven-year-old daughter.
Kristen Mays is the mother of the young girl who drowned to death at a Hendersonville apartment complex. She has been charged with criminally negligent homicide after authorities accused her of not “watching or caring” for her small child leading up to the death.
According to police, Mays allegedly neglected to maintain visual supervision of her daughter and the child was reportedly found underwater in the deep end of the pool. The little girl was pulled from the water and CPR was performed before she was transported to a local hospital where she was pronounced dead.
Mays was arrested on Tuesday. She has been charged with criminally negligent homicide. Her court date is set for September 27, 2017.
The 25-year-old mother is originally from Elkton, Kentucky. Yet, she finds herself in a Tennessee jail.
