Surveillance video released in Carmody wrongful death lawsuit

The drowning death of 51-year-old Anthony Carmody has been ruled an accident by the coroner, but family members claim negligence on the part of the homeowner, Will Broyles.

Home surveillance video has been released of the night this all happened when the Carmodys and the Broyles were at the home on East Ridge Drive. On the video, you can see the actions taken by the Broyles' both before and after Carmody goes under water.

Carmody's wife can be seen passed out on the walkway going to the pool.

Police said Carmody was unconscious when paramedics arrived.

Katherine Carmody, the widow of Anthony Carmody, has filed a wrongful death suit alleging the Broyles bear part of the responsibility for his death.

The suit claims Will and Chelsea Broyles left him alone in the pool in a highly intoxicated state. The suit -- filed on behalf of Katherine Carmody's children and not herself -- came 19 days after Katherine Carmody's 16-year-old son filed a court petition to be emancipated, alleging he is estranged from his and does not believe she would act in his best interests by pursuing monetary damages in connection with his father's death.
