Emilie Kiser has filed a lawsuit against multiple Maricopa County public offices to keep records of her son's death private.
Her son, Trigg, tragically died in a drowning accident at her home on May 12th.
Emergency services rushed to the scene of the incident at the family's home in Arizona.
The three-year-old was then rushed to Chandler Regional Hospital in critical condition.
He was later transferred to Phoenix Children’s Hospital but sadly passed away from his injuries on May 18th.
According to NBC News, Kiser filed a lawsuit to keep details of her son's death out of the public eye.
The suit was obtained by NBC News.
It reads: "Emilie and her family desperately want to grieve in private, but sadly, the public will not let them. Trigg’s death has become a media frenzy."
"Disclosure of graphic or intimate death-related records causes renewed trauma to surviving family members and violates their right to grieve privately."
Jason Berry, director of communications for Maricopa County, told NBC News:
"When Maricopa County learned the family was pursuing a court order to prevent the release of these records, the Office of the Medical Examiner worked with the family to place a seal on the record."
It is believed that 100 public records requests have been filed since Trigg's tragic death.
Kiser has not reviewed any of the requested records, including the police report, security camera footage, body camera footage, or autopsy reports.
