The president of a swimming pool company is charged after the death of a 6-year-old boy in
Connecticut. The child, Zachary Cohn, drowned in 2007 when his arm became trapped in an intake valve in his family’s pool. The president of Shoreline Pools, David Lionetti, has been charged with second-degree manslaughter because his company failed to install safety devices when they built the pool for the Cohn family. Mr. Lionetti could receive up to 10 years in prison if he is found guilty. Since 1985, there have been 48 deaths cases similar to Zachary Cohn’s, and over 100 serious injuries.
