Emilie Kiser Breaks Silence After Son Trigg’s Drowning, Takes ‘Full Accountability’

Her message emphasizes pool-safety lessons alongside new privacy boundaries.

Overview

  • In her first public statement since May, Kiser said she should have done more to protect her son and wrote that a permanent pool fence could have saved his life.
  • She told followers she will set stricter limits on what she shares, citing concerns about children’s privacy on social platforms.
  • A Chandler police report says surveillance video shows Trigg was alone outside for more than nine minutes and in the water for about seven after tripping over an inflatable chair.
  • Investigators recommended a Class 4 felony child-abuse charge against father Brady Kiser, but prosecutors later declined to file charges, citing no reasonable likelihood of conviction.
  • Kiser previously sought in court to block or redact investigative records and video; a judge released a redacted police report and later unsealed her declaration while keeping graphic material from public release.
