Description
A San Diego family continues to mourn the loss of their toddler on the 2-year anniversary of his tragic death.
Baby Nico was on vacation with his mom and dad at Hyatt Ziva Puerto Vallarta when the 23-month-old fell to his death from the ninth floor. Court documents show a pane was missing where Nico fell. He didn't live to see his second birthday after falling from the unprotected, floor-level window that was missing its pane. Nico fell onto the concrete deck nine stories below and died.
Now, his parents James Carter and Anastacia Duboshina are suing Hyatt Hotels saying the company must make sure safety standards are followed so that no other family has to suffer the loss like theirs has.
"He was the best thing that ever happened to me, the sweetest boy ever,” Anastacia beamed with pride talking about her son. “This world was so good with him in it.”
James sobbed softly, "We'll never get over it. We still have his bedroom. We couldn't get rid of it. We just couldn't do it." James described the last moments he saw his son alive. "Nico was standing right there in front of me. You couldn't see that there was a missing glass panel. I watched my son die in front of me. Nine stories."
