Emilie Kiser Seeks to Redact Police Report Relating to Recommended Criminal Charges Against Her Husband: Report

Emilie’s husband Brady was home at the time of their 3-year-old son Trigg’s fatal drowning accident

Emily Kiser's legal team has moved to redact details from the police report about their son’s drowning on May 12 that reveal why police recommended Kiser’s husband Brady be charged with a class 4 felony of child abuse, according to a July 29 court document

On Friday, July 25, the Maricopa County Attorney's Office announced that there was “no likelihood of conviction” against Brady

Emilie Kiser is seeking to block the release of more information surrounding the recommended criminal charges against her husband in the death of their 3-year-old son Trigg.

Kiser’s legal team has moved to remove details from two pages of the Chandler Police Department (CDP) report about their son’s drowning on May 12 that reveal why police recommended Kiser’s husband Brady be charged with a class 4 felony of child abuse, said Matthew Kelley, a lawyer representing The Arizona Republic, in a July 29 court document.

The newest development comes just days after the Maricopa County Attorney's Office announced that there was “no likelihood of conviction” against Brady.

According to Kelley, Emile’s legal team’s latest move stems from concerns that, should the police report become public, the details of the case could be used to create “disturbing” content, such as reenactments with artificial intelligence.

"The section of the report Ms. Kiser seeks to redact contains information and context that is critical to provide the public a reasonably full understanding of the investigation of the drowning, the police department's decision to recommend criminal charges and the county attorney's decision not to pursue criminal charges," Kelley said.

Emilie previously filed a lawsuit on May 27 in Arizona Superior Court for Maricopa County seeking to keep records about her son’s death out of public view, stating that the City of Chandler and the Maricopa County Medical Examiner’s Office had received more than 100 requests for access to public records related to the incident.



On June 3, the Arizona Superior Court for Maricopa County ruled in Emilie’s favor on another motion she filed to keep her personal declaration private, granting Kiser temporary confidentiality on both her declaration and her larger request for privacy while the court reviewed evidence to make a final ruling.

What Happened to Emilie Kiser’s Son, Trigg? Here's Why Her Husband Brady May Face a Felony Charge Related to His Death

A source told PEOPLE at the time that Emile’s personal declaration “reflects an intensely personal account of her grief and trauma, submitted to help the court understand her perspective — not for public consumption.”



“The core legal issues remain fully transparent through public filings by counsel and the court. Emilie’s sealed declaration does not hinder the public’s understanding of the case or its legal significance," the source continued. "Preserving a small measure of privacy in the midst of public scrutiny is a reasonable and compassionate choice given the circumstances."
