And entitled Karen demands that her kids are going to swim in a pond that is very clearly marked to have alligators and venom and snakes present in the water.

0:08.5

And despite my manager pleading with her to please not go in the water or to even get close to the water in the first place,

0:15.1

this entitled Karen refuses to take no for an answer.

0:18.8

Here's what happened.

0:19.8

So this took place many years ago before I became a photographer, but still work for a company as a custodian for a resort.

And the theme park complex is located in central Florida.

Now, this takes place maybe three weeks after that person's passing,

1:11.6

so people were still very much talking about it.

1:13.9

I was doing my rounds around sundown when I noticed Karen and her two little kids very close to the

1:19.2

edge of the lake, literally just a few feet away from one of those signs and they were wearing swim suits and were setting up towels.

1:26.0

Now my manager was helping me and he noticed the family as well.
