The teen helped teammates pull the cover above their heads — but no-one noticed she never got out (via toofab)
Nabila, a freshman at Oregon Episcopal School and member of the Liberty High School swim team, had been practicing with the team the night she died, when the coach instructed them to help unfurl the covers, which create suction when rolled onto the water,While still in the water, Nabila and several teammates grabbed one cover and swam with it to the deep end of the pool; they then swam back to grab a second cover and do the same. But after the second cover was placed, the teen never resurfaced.
The lawsuit says the rest of the team got out of the pool, as the coach shut down practice and turned off the lights, with nobody noticing Nabila was missing. Her mother Patricia Maazouz was waiting for her in the parking lot, and became worried when she saw everybody leaving without her. She went inside to ask the coach and staff members where her daughter was. After a 20 minute search, her body was discovered, trapped beneath the covers in the deep end of the pool.
The lawsuit alleges the ThermGard pool covers were"defective" and"unreasonably dangerous", accusing the manufacturers Universal Filtration Inc. of failing to provide adequate warning labels; the seller BK Reilly & Co are also named defendants. Neither has commented on the suit.
