Grandma captures last photo of granddaughter before dea th
Sam Jensen lost her 3-year-old daughter, Scarlett, in a tragic accident shortly after her grandmother took what would be the last photo of her alive. Scarlett was hit by a car while walking with her grandmother and 2-year-old brother, Henry, in Oldtown, Idaho. The driver was arrested and sentenced to 10 years in prison.
The heartbreaking incident happened during a peaceful family stroll. Scarlett’s grandmother captured a photo of Scarlett and Henry just before the tragedy. “That’s when my mom took the last picture I have of her alive,” said Jensen. Moments later, a speeding driver hit them, killing Scarlett instantly. Her grandmother and Henry were also critically injured.
The last photo of Scarlett has since gone viral, offering the family some solace in their grief. “I will forever picture her happy and carefree, picking flowers,” said Jensen. Despite the driver being held accountable, the emotional wounds remain, and the family continues to mourn the loss of their beloved daughter, granddaughter, and sister.
