A courageous man leapt 25 feet off a bridge to rescue a toddler thrown from a car during a multi-vehicle crash.
Three sisters, aged 5, 8, and 9, were tragically found dead in a neighbor’s pond after going missing—rest in peace.
In this heartbreaking story, both twins were found unconscious by their mother. Despite desperate efforts, they were pronounced dead two hours later. Jenny Callazzo, a devoted stay-at-home mom who also runs a boutique, now faces an unimaginable loss.
Jenny Callazzo lives in a $565,000 home in Oklahoma City with her husband Sonny, their six children, and other family members, including her grandmother. Sonny, 42, works as a marketing executive.
According to a family relative, Callazzo’s grandmother suffers from dementia and accidentally left the back door open. The twin toddlers slipped outside unnoticed through the open door.
Authorities are investigating the tragic incident but have found no evidence of foul play in the heartbreaking deaths of the young children.
Local media captured aerial images of the home, revealing a murky pool covered in green algae—where the twins are believed to have drowned. Just days before the tragedy, 37-year-old Callazzo had shared a photo of her toddlers playing outside with the caption, “just want to play outside.”
Neighbors recall the heartbreaking moment they saw the distraught mother being escorted into an EMS vehicle as emergency responders desperately tried to save her children.
A GoFundMe has been launched to assist the family with medical and end-of-life expenses.
“These beautiful babies were taken from us far too soon. Any support to help with expenses would mean the world to us. We deeply appreciate everyone’s love and kindness,” reads the GoFundMe description.
Laura Gamino, injury prevention coordinator for trauma at OU Health, urged parents to recognize the dangers water poses for young children.
“Tragedies like this can happen in an instant,” she warned.
