A preventable tragedy. He did not drown because he was a ward of the state, a runaway, or a teen father born to a drug addicted mother. He drowned swimming at a popular swimming spot that for some unexplicable reason, the city stopped guarding two years ago. Put the lifeguards back.

Shaun King was my foster brother at a point in time and i'm really sorry to hear what has happened to him. I wish his family the best and pray things get better within time.

You may be able to solve the problem simply, which will be a relief all round, but there's a chance that you may have to do some serious thinking or get some expert advice before you know exactly what your next step should be. You may have to take official action of some kind.
