Twin toddlers, a boy and a girl, drowned last week in their family’s pool when their great-grandmother, who has Alzheimer’s, apparently left a back door open in their Oklahoma City home.
By the time mom Jenny Callazzo found her 18-month-old children, Locklyn and Loreli, at the bottom of the murky water Thursday morning, they were unconscious.
The tots were pronounced dead two hours later, the Daily Mail reported.
Callazzo, a stay-at-home mother lives with her grandmother, husband Sonny, 42, and their six children.
According to a relative, Jenny’s grandmother, who has Alzheimer’s, left the back door open. The twin toddlers apparently slipped out the backdoor and into the pool.
Aerial footage of the home showed the algae-filled pool.
Police are investigating the children’s deaths, but don’t believe foul play was involved.
A GoFundMe page set up for the family’s expenses said, “These beautiful babies were taken from us too soon. Anything you can give to help with expenses would be greatly appreciated. We appreciate everyone’s love and support.”
