A newborn baby was found wrapped in a sheet with the umbilical cord still attached in New York City.
Emilie Kiser’s statement to the Arizona Superior Court for Maricopa County to request the details of her 3-year-old son’s death remain private has been shared with the public.
According to People, who obtained the letter which has since been unsealed, Kiser called the death of her son Trigg Kiser "the most severe and emotional event I have ever experienced."
The mom of two continued, noting that she and her husband, Brady Kiser, were "deeply concerned about the release of specific information and our ability to even start to heal,” People reports.
"I was not home when this happened,” the popular social media star continued. “I will forever second guess that decision, among many others.”
According to previous reports, Emilie was at a dinner with friends when the tragedy occurred on May 12. Those reports further revealed that Brady was at home alone with their two kids, which also included then-infant Theodore Kiser.
Brady was tending to Theodore while Trigg was playing outside. Backyard surveillance footage would reveal that Trigg was playing outside on his own for more than 9 minutes. Seven of those minutes Trigg was in the water of their family pool, according to the Chandler Police Department.
"Our love for our children has been shared and expressed worldwide, given my role as a social media personality with many 'followers' across a number of social media platforms," Emilie continued in her plea for privacy despite being a well-known influencer.
“Nothing we have shared as part of my profession has depicted or been intended to depict anything but deep and adoring love within our Family. That is how it should stay forever in my mind and the minds of all others,” she continued, per People.
"The story of Trigg's tragic death has been all over the news, social media and online. I am now aware that Trigg's death was announced on social media less than 2 hours after he passed.”
Trigg remained in the hospital six days after he was rescued from the pool. Trigg died on May 18. “In fact, Fox News wrongfully announced that he was dead immediately after the event," Emilie continued, according to People.
"Media has come to my front door asking for comment. Unknown people have come to my home and asked to 'pray over the house.' Cars have parked outside of my house and driven back and forth with cameras out their window waiting for 'views.' And random packages are being delivered from people whom I do not know," she added.
People reported that Emilie also expressed her concern for her youngest son Theodore, also known as Teddy, one day becoming privy to the devastating information inside the police report.
"Knowing that intensely devastating personal information like that which various people have sought could be placed on the Internet where it will live forever, haunts me wondering whether Teddy, through his own curiosity or having it thrust upon him by another, could have to live through this horror on his own at some uncertain future date.”
