TikToker Emilie Kiser's Lawyer Speaks Out on Son's "Nightmare" Death
Originally appeared on E! Online Emilie Kiser wants to grieve privately after her son's tragic death. Nearly two weeks after her and her husband Brady Kiser's 3-year-old son died after being rescued from a pool in their backyard, the TikToker shared more details surrounding the unfortunate incident in a lawsuit filed against Maricopa County public offices May 27. In the docs, obtained by NBC News, Emilie's lawyer detailed the influencer's grief over the "heartbreaking accidental drowning." "Emilie is going through a parent's worst nightmare right now," her lawsuit states. "She lost her young son." The suit continued, "Emilie is trying her best to be there for her surviving son, two-month-old Theodore. But every day is a battle." She requested that the court prohibit the public release of details surrounding his death, saying it would be a "profound invasion of privacy." In response to the suit, Maricopa County's Office of the Medical Examiner said it "worked with the family to place a seal on the record" once it "learned the family was pursuing a court order to prevent the release of these records," director of communications for Maricopa County Jason Berry told NBC News May 29.

Upon arrival, police and firefighters administered CPR before taking the toddler to Chandler Regional Hospital. He was later transferred to Phoenix Children's Hospital. But less than a week later, local authorities confirmed Trigg succumbed to his injuries and assured they are formally looking into the matter. 'Our thoughts and deepest condolences are with the child's family and loved ones during this unimaginable time,' Chandler Police Department spokesperson Sonu Wasu said in a May 19 statement to E! News. 'The investigation into the circumstances surrounding this incident remain ongoing. This is still an open investigation.' In the weeks leading up to Trigg's death, Emilie shared insight into her life as a mother through various snapshots of her spending time with her kids. Throughout the sweet montage, Emilie could be seen sitting on a picnic blanket outside cradling her youngest son before Trigg came over and gave her a kiss. In another clip, the TikToker watched with pride as her husband playfully hoisted their son into the air. "POV: the joy of being a mother," Emilie wrote over the heartwarming video posted to Instagram May 11, adding in the caption, "Forever grateful that I get to be a momma." And last month, the lifestyle blogger shared a glimpse into her daily routine as a mom of two. "I thought it would be fun to do a little night vlog with our new norm, which is two kids," Emilie said in an April 3 Instagram video, during which she nursed Theodore and put him down for bed before taking Trigg out for a swim. "Which is crazy to say." For more of Emilie's life as a mom, keep reading. (E! and NBC News are both part of the NBCUniversal family.)

Dire sign from Aldi ski sale
In what has been dubbed the latest recession indicator, a hugely popular shopping day has gone unsold, despite offering huge discounts on a number of products. Aldi's iconic annual ski gear sale was met with chaotic and crowded scenes, with customers lined up out the door before the supermarket chain even opened its doors. Inside, shoppers were seen urgently rifling through piles of ski jackets searching for their sizes. But in the weeks that followed, interest declined. Popular TikToker Bec Brewin highlighted that despite the buzz around Aldi's much loved sale, none of the items were actually sold out. 'Do you remember when the ski gear at Aldi used to sell out?,' she said. 'Well apparently this is the latest recession indicator because none of this has sold out and it's been there for a while.' 'I can't afford to go skiing and I certainly can't afford knee surgery after I fall over what would be the easiest run on the mountain.' Aldi has been contacted for comment. AMP economist My Bui told NewsWire the situation is consistent with the broader issues facing the Australian economy. 'This is playing out in Macroeconomic data. 'I looked at the NAB Business Sentiment Survey …. it shows conditions have still been deteriorating even when consumer confidence has been improving,' she said. Ms Bui's comments come after Australia's longest hit to living standards since the Second World War officially ended in March 2025, with households getting out of their per capita recession. But that doesn't mean households are spending, with Q1 retail sales figures released by the ABS showing retail volumes on a per capita basis fell 0.4 per cent after growth in the previous two quarters. Robert Ewing, ABS head of business statistics, said 'Retail sales volumes were flat this quarter and reflected subdued spending. This comes after sustained promotional activity boosted discretionary spending in late 2024.' Ms Bui agreed saying unlike the post covid years, businesses have less power to increase prices and have turned to promotions in order to clear stock. 'Retailers have less pricing power compared with before,' She said. 'Businesses had the power to raise prices. Right now, if you look at input costs and even when these costs increase, businesses do not feel they can raise their prices.' 'When you look at retail sales every single month there are more promotions than usual, but that is not a sign of strengthening as it is only driven by promotions, so it's actually a sign of weakness. Ms Bui said despite the overall outlook improving, it is coming off a relatively low base. The call comes just weeks after footage showed shoppers queuing up outside Aldi in Chatswood before opening to get ahead of the Snow Gear sale. The popular retailer has launched a premium range describing it as their 'coolest collection' to date, with more than 65 products under $100. 'We know our Aussie customers look forward to our annual Snow Gear Special Buys sale, and we're blown away by the overwhelming response by shoppers every year who line up before the store opens to get their hands on the range,' an Aldi spokesperson said at the time. 'The momentum we have seen over the last 20 years is reflective of the high quality and low price point Aldi's Snow Gear presents. 'Our customers continue to be excited about the release of the range each year, and we look forward to being part of their snow holiday plans with top quality gear at low prices in 2025.'

Man describes surreal experience after being considered dead for 45 minutes
The TikToker, who uses the handle @ believes he went over to the afterlife, during which time the man watched his life unfold as if it was a film A man who was considered dead for around 45 minutes has revealed what he saw. The TikToker believes he went over to the afterlife following a nasty reaction to medication. After the man, known as @ on TikTok, collapsed on the floor of a restaurant bathroom, he became lifeless and says doctors thought he was dead for around 45 minutes. He says paramedics only realised there was sign of life after he was put into a body bag. The man understands he was unconscious and had slipped into the afterlife, where he was able to "witness his death". "I was looking at everything from above, but what's weird is it didn't feel like it was me at all even though I was sitting there looking at my own dead body," he said. "I would almost be like going to a movie, like a real movie, and seeing someone dressed like you and looking like you on the movie, but you're like, 'That's not me because I'm over here watching the movie.'" His story comes after a woman from Colorado, US, argued death is an illusion, following her near death experience. Brianna Lafferty, 33, heard a voice asking if she was ready – and agreed – as she entered into complete darkness when she became lifeless recently. The TikToker's case mirrors Brianna's one as @ a former bodybuilder, also "ended up dying" on the bathroom floor after his convulsions. When he was found, he was cold to the touch and so doctors understood he had passed away. And the Express US reports the man watched the very scene unfold - like a movie - as he entered the afterlife briefly. He continued: "My background is in TV and film, so I though that was such an off choice for the director to think he needed to overplay all these thoughts of everyone in the room." The former bodybuilder said ge watched paramedics bag his body and place him in an ambulance. As he was riding in the back, he started to see a light - and he regained consciousness. Then, the man allegedly heard one of the paramedics say: "This one's not dead." The medic unzipped the body bag, and he found a sign he was still alive. That's when the man finally started to realize he was watching his own death. The man detailed his experience in a TikTok clip this week, which coincided with Brianna's journey. Speaking to reporters, she said: "Death is an illusion because our soul never dies. Our consciousness remains alive. And our very being only transforms. My thoughts instantly manifested into the afterlife. I noticed that our thoughts create a reality there – it just takes time – which is a blessing."
