Considering a fish was found in the pool along with Savannah, who was fully clothed when she was found, Riddle said that he thinks Savannah might have tried to pull a fish from one of the fountains, and then fell backward into the pool. Another issue of concern is whether Savannah should have been in the neighborhood in the first place. She lived about a block away from where she was found, with her foster mother, Norma Haskins. A neighbor said that Haskins let the children roam around at will, and isn't surprised about the tragedy. But a spokesman for the foster agency that placed Savannah in Haskins' home spoke highly of the woman.
Foster parents are very committed, caring, nurturing people.
They're no different than any other kind of parent. This is a devastating event for her. My heart goes out to her. I can't even imagine what she must be feeling at this point. All rights reserved.
