TRAGIC SACRIFICE TO SAVE HER SON

The cast of feel-good TV musical series Glee were plunged into mourning for the third time in seven years after actress Naya Rivera’s body was found, presumed accidentally drowned, in a Southern California lake last week. Naya, 33, who played Santana Lopez on the hit show, went missing on July 8 after renting a pontoon boat in Ventura County’s Lake Piru – notorious for strong rips and ice-cold patches – with her 4-year-old son Josey Dorsey. Another family spotted the vessel floating aimlessly with Josey asleep on board and alerted authorities.

“He told police his mummy had gone swimming and didn’t come back,” a source close to the Ventura County Sheriff’s investigation tells New Idea.
