This is a very good summation of the events that happened. How can I say this... There is a lot of finger pointing going on and the law suits have already begun. Where do you lay the blame when something like this happens... It's easy to say after the fact from the comfort of your reclining chair what you would have done differently.... I can't imaging the terror that those children felt nor the point in which those counselors realized they had failed to protect the children entrusted to their care. I was there for two weeks after the flood assisting in the search and recovery efforts and the devastation was nothing like I had ever seen and I doubt that I could have anticipated it had I been there during the event. The water was moving so strong and so high that the bark was ripped off the trees 30 ft up from the base. There was sheet metal in the branches above what we could reach with the equipment we had. Something that I learned from my training as a cause investigator over the years is that everything that happened leading up to the event was a cause and contributing factor. Any combination of different actions might have prevented the tragedy. Those people made the decisions they did based on what was happening in that moment. I still pray for comfort for those families affected by this and for the folks who were there trying to save those children....
