Grandma’s final photo of

A heartbreaking moment was unknowingly captured by a grandmother just before a tragic

hit-and-run claimed the life of three-year-old Scarlett Jensen on October 7, 2022.

Scarlett and her two-year-old brother, Henry, were in their grandmother’s care when

a speeding Chevy Tahoe struck them in the family’s private driveway in Oldtown, Idaho.

“My mother was waving her hands, screaming for him to stop, and she tried to grab my children…

but he was going too fast,” recalled their mother, Samantha Jensen. “Scarlett was killed

almost instantly, and my mom and Henry were critically injured.” The driver fled but was later arrested and sentenced to ten years in prison.

Henry sustained serious injuries, including a fractured spine and broken ribs, while

his grandmother suffered multiple broken bones. “Henry spent a week in the PICU before he was stable enough to come home,” Samantha said.

Weeks later, Samantha discovered a photo taken just moments before the tragedy.

“I am so incredibly thankful to have that photo,” she said. “It captures the peaceful feeling of her last moments.”
