Singer Accused in Nephew’s Tragic Drowning | Huntsville News

A 22-year-old singer, Deshundre Vinson, once a star on “America’s Got Talent” and “The Ellen DeGeneres Show,” now faces first-degree murder and three counts of aggravated child abuse after his four-year-old nephew drowned in a pool under his watch. The boy died five days after being pulled from the water — nine agonizing minutes after entering the pool — while police were responding to another call. Investigators say Vinson ignored texts warning him the kids were unsupervised and failed to act when help was needed. The case is still unfolding, but the tragedy has sent shockwaves through the entertainment world and beyond. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
