I’M SORRY – HE PULLED HIS GRANDCHILDREN FROM THE DARK WATER, BUT COULDN’T SAVE THEM: HEARTBROKEN GRANDPA ACCU-SED OF BEING DRUNK WHEN BOAT CRASH KI-LLED HIS DAUGHTER’S ONLY TWO CHILDREN

Stephen Schneider, 64, is facing an unimaginable tragedy after the boat he was allegedly piloting while impaired by alcohol crashed during a late-night trip, sending his two young grandchildren into the dark waters. Schneider and his wife, Laurie, desperately pulled the children back aboard, but officials said both were unresponsive. Mya Bella Golabek, 9, and her seven-year-old brother Sigmund were their mother’s only children. The most devastating part is that their grandfather tried to save them with his own hands—but watched his desperate rescue attempt end in heartbreak. For their family, the night that was meant to be a joyful outing became an irreversible nightmare.
