\nA grieving family is sharing the final \u201chappy\u201d photo of a three-year-old girl who was killed just a matter of minutes after the photo was taken as the family enjoyed a countryside walk\n
A TikTok user has attracted significant attention for sharing the heartbreaking final moments of her daughter\u2019s life, captured on camera by her mother just before the tragic incident.\n
Samantha Jensen revealed that her daughter, Scarlett, who \u2018loved horses, unicorns, and being a big sister,\u2019 is now remembered in a bittersweet way due to a photo taken just before her passing.\n
Until weeks later, the poignant image was not discovered and Jensen now feels an immense sense of gratitude for it.\n
\n
In her TikTok post, she shared: \u201cMy mom took this picture at 4:47 pm and my daughter\u2019s time of death was 4:52. My mom didn\u2019t know she was capturing the last moments of her life. This one is really hard for me to look at, just knowing what comes next breaks my heart.\u201d\n
Jensen, the children\u2019s mother, revealed she was away for a wedding when the tragedy occurred in Oldtown, Idaho. She explained her children, Scarlett and two year old Henry, were in the care of their grandmother, Jamie at the time.\n
\u201cThat afternoon they went to get ice cream and enjoy a walk together,\u201d recounted Jensen. \u201cWhen they arrived home to our back driveway, Scarlett wanted to get out of the stroller to pick flowers. That\u2019s when my mum took the last picture I have of her alive.\u201d\n
Jensen revealed that the family was strolling in their private driveway when a Chevy Tahoe came hurtling down the road, hitting all three of them.\n
\n
\u201cMy mother was waving her hands, screaming for him to stop and she tried to grab my children to move them out of the way but he was going too fast. Scarlett was killed almost instantly and my mum and Henry were critically injured,\u201d Jensen said.\n
According to hospital staff, the boy was handed over with multiple injuries, including eight broken ribs, a fractured spine, broken clavicle, a broken jaw, and more. \u201cHenry spent a week in the PICU before he was stable enough to come home, and he had a full body brace on for 10 weeks,\u201d Jensen told People.\n
According to the woman, it was weeks before Jamie realized that the photo she had snapped just prior to the accident was the last one she had of her granddaughter alive. \u201cMy mum lost her phone when they were hit and it took us a while to find it, so when we finally did I was going through pictures and found that one,\u201d Jensen said.\n
\n
\u201cI looked at the timestamp and realized it was only five minutes before her declared time of death, so it must have been taken seconds before the person hit them.\u201d\n
The driver of the vehicle was apprehended and identified as a 23 year old from Newport. The driver was taken to the hospital after sustaining injuries. The man is now serving 10 years in prison, with two years credited for time according to Jensen. Since her death, a GoFundMe has been set up to help offset the costs of a funeral.\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
