14-Year-Old Girl Electrocuted after Cell Phone Incident in Bathtub

A teenage girl in Lubbock, Texas, died early Sunday morning after being electrocuted in a bathtub. Madison Coe’s mother and grandmother say that she was in the bathtub and either plugged her phone in or simply grabbed her phone that was already plugged in. Comments would suggest there is more to the story: perhaps the outlet was faulty.



Her family says Madison was in the bathtub and grabbed her phone that was plugged into a charger in a bathroom outlet. “There was a burn mark on her hand, the hand that would have grabbed the phone. And that was just very obvious that that’s what had happened,” O’Guinn said. Madison’s family believes this terrible accident is something that could happen to anyone. But now their mission is to make sure it doesn’t happen again.
