Courtney Campbell was flown to All Children's Hospital in St. Petersburg after she was found at 5539 Senate Lane. Police said Courtney and her 3-year-old brother, Trevor, were visiting family in New Port Richey. Last Wednesday, the children went to see a family friend, Jessica Cothran, on Senate Lane. Trevor noticed that his sister was missing. Within minutes, Cothran found her in the pool. Paramedics and doctors got Courtney's heart beating again. But she had been listed in critical condition, which generally means that vital signs are unstable. Capt. Darryl Garman said he does not expect charges will be filed. The girl's family will have services this weekend in Orlando.
