If you've been following the TOMMY LEE trial this week, you have to ask: "Seriously, why would a parent bringing a child to a party at Tommy Lee's house ever leave their child unsupervised?
So far in the trial, Tommy testified that the children HAD a guardian there.
Tommy also testified that the nanny for his two sons let guests know he was having a pool party, and that it was "not a drop-off party... Caregivers and parents were in charge of overseeing the pool."
The attorney for the drowned boy's parents claimed in his opening statement that (quote) "These guys are drinking beer and having a good old time. This is not a party for 4-year-olds." But Tommy's attorney said the party included a magician, a petting zoo and a Buzz Lightyear-costumed character to entertain the children. The main beverages served were soda and fruit drinks, with just one six-pack of beer on hand and no hard liquor available.
He also said he'd be calling police to the stand to testify that no adults showed signs of intoxication.
