    Administrative Agency: Hardee Co Sheriff Office Incident #: 202100032037 _Case_Nr: 302021020963 Report No. 1 Entered: 12/22/2021 14:13 By Officer: 00000603 Ward, Shane Det. Subject: Supplement Detective Shane Ward Supplement Wednesday, December 22, 2021 I responded to the incident location, a dwelling property, in reference to a child drowning incident. EMS was on scene tending to the victim on my arrival. The homeowners Nun Ney Nix was outside and he told me his wife Tracey Nix was inside changing clothes. I determined the following scrics of events based on statements made to me by the Nix’s and ‘The victim was being supervised by his grandparents Mr. and Mrs. Nix at their home. No one was else was at the home. There is a large pond that is stocked with ducks located on the west side of their property within feet of their home. Mr. Nix was rocking the victim in a recliner in the living room. His wife was on an adjacent sofa. Mr. Nix stated he left the victim sleeping in the recliner and left his wife, who he said was awake, to go to Wal-Mart and run some errands. Mrs. Nix corroborated this, but told me that she drifted off to sleep and was not awake when her husband left. At some point, Mrs. Nix awoke and couldn’t find the victim. She told me the garage entrance door was ajar. She searched outside for the victim and drove her vehicle to the end of the driveway and looked down EEE At some point, she called her husband and informed him she couldn’t find the victim. She said as she turned around to drive back to the residence, she saw the vietim face down in the pond. She drove over to him and pulled him out of the water and started CPR that she had been trained on from working for the school system. She did not call 9-1-1 ‘A neighbor, MEI, heard her screaming and told me he saw Mrs. Nix giving CPR tothe victim on the ground. He said her vehicle was parked along the fence in the front yard, consistent with her statements to me, He never saw the victim in the water nor did he see Mrs. Nix pull the victim from the water. I £1 sisted when he returned to the yard, Mr. Nix had arrived and joined Mrs. Nix in performing CPR. Mr. Nix consented for me to enter his home. He showed me the living room layout and described where everyone had been seated. Administrative Agency: Hardee Co Sheriff Office Incident i: 202100032037 Case_Nr: 302021020963 Report No. 1 Entered: 12/22/2021 14:13 By Officer: 00000603 Ward, Shane Det. Subject: Supplement He confirmed that he used the garage door to leave the home. I advised him that his wife stated she found the door ajar and he shook his head and said he closed the door. Lasked Mr. Nix how much time had elapsed from when he left for Wal-Mart and when he received a call from his wife - 15, 20, 25 minutes? He said it could have been up to an hour. I measured the distance from the floor to the door handle as 35-inches. The handle was a pull handle and not a knob style fixture which could be easily opened by the victim if they could reach it to pull down on it. Lasked Mr. Nix if they had any issues with the victim opening doors before and he indicated interior doors. I was informed the victim was airlifted to TGH with a faint pulse. Both parents were called by Mr. Nix and responded to the scene prior to the victim being transported. I checked the CAD system and found no prior incidents involving child abuse or neglect. At this time, the incident appears to be a tragic accident involving non-criminal negligence. In order to establish the elements of child neglect, the defendant must expose the victim to personal injury through “culpable negligence.” According to F.S.S. 784.05 and Florida Standard Jury Instructions, culpable negligence is more than mere negligenc Each of us has a duty to act reasonably toward others. If there is a violation of that duty, without any conscious intention to harm, that violation is negligence. But culpable negligence is more than a failure to use ordinary care for others, In order for negligence 10 be culpable, it must be gross and flagrant, Culpable negligence is a course of conduct showing reckless disregard for human life, or for the safety of persons exposed to its dangerous effects, or such an entire want of care as to raise a presumption of a conscious indifference to consequences, or which shows wantonness or recklessness, or a grossly careless disregard for the safety and welfare of the public, or shows such an indifference 10 the rights of others as is equivalent 10 an intentional violation of such rights.
