HOUSTON– Police in Houston are examining the death of an 8-year-old woman whose body was discovered inside a big pipeline for a lazy river at a Houston hotel where she had actually been swimming with her household.
Aliyah Jaico’s death on Saturday was ruled an unexpected drowning by the Harris County Institute of Forensic Sciences. It stated she passed away from drowning and mechanical asphyxia, when an item or physical force stops somebody from breathing. Her autopsy report is pending.
Cops stated the lady was discovered “inside a big pipeline in the swimming pool location” and was noticable dead by paramedics.
A claim submitted Monday versus the hotel by her mom, Jose Daniela Jaico Ahumada, declares that the kid was drawn into an unsecured opening in the swimming pool’s circulation system that was 12 inches to 16 inches large.
“They needed to separate concrete in order to extract her, cut pipeline, it was definitely dreadful,” Richard Nava, her mom’s lawyer, stated Tuesday at a press conference.
