I was traveling from las vegas, nv to twin falls, id with my son [xxx] on Dec 14 2015 to visit family for christmas. My son [xxx] was a week from turning 4, weighed 37 lbs and was 38 inches tall. I had him in the baby trend hybrid 3 in 1 LX (kiwi color) forward facing in the 5 point harness. At around 9pm mountain standard time on Dec 14 2015 my son [xxx] was able to pull the slack on his harness loose after unclipping his chest clip and freed his upper arms. The moment I noticed he had done this our small car was hit head on by a pickup truck that was driving at a high rate of speed. Since [xxx] lower body was the only thing restrained his upper body was thrown forward at a high rate of speed which caused a hyper extension and severance of his spinal cord at the C3- C4 vertebrae. [xxx] passed away at the scene of the crash within seconds....updated 04/19/16 see also 10859748.....updated 05/24/16 updated 09/19/2017 information redacted pursuant to the Freedom Of Information Act (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6).
