She was also responsible for the death of her grandson, the young girl's brother, less than a year prior when he drowned in a pond under her care.
A judge in Hardee County, Florida, granted a motion Thursday to allow Tracey Nix to go to an inpatient mental health facility outside of the county — in St. Cloud, Florida.
Tracey, a former school principal in Hardee County, is charged with aggravated manslaughter in Uriel's death. Last year, Tracey, 65, told a Hardee County detective that after she drove home from lunch with friends on November 22, she"just forgot" about Uriel. It wasn't until one of Tracey's grandsons arrived at her house, the complaint affidavit said, that"all of a sudden" it"came across her head" that Uriel had been in the SUV all afternoon.
In a statement, the State Attorney's Office told the I-Team,"In cases involving the accidental drowning of a toddler, Florida appellate courts have stated that a one-time lapse of judgment would not establish culpable negligence of the caretaker. . In the 2021 incident, there was insufficient evidence to establish culpable negligence. The 2022 incident is factually distinguishable and charges have been filed.
