A Day at Bartlett Lake Turns Tragic
On a Saturday afternoon in June 2017, 26-year-old Antonio Najera Huntress visited Bartlett Lake near Phoenix, Arizona, seeking a day of relaxation and recreation. Located in the Tonto National Forest, Bartlett Lake is a popular destination known for its picturesque landscapes and water activities. Antonio, accompanied by his wife, chose the Rattlesnake Cove area, a spot favored for its accessibility and scenic views. Unfortunately, the day's enjoyment took a devastating turn when Antonio slipped into the water around noon and did not resurface.
Immediate Search and Rescue Efforts
Witnesses at the scene reported the incident promptly, leading to an immediate response from the Maricopa County Sheriff's Office (MCSO) and their dive team. Despite the swift mobilization, initial search efforts faced challenges due to the lake's depth and underwater visibility. Family members on-site informed authorities that Antonio was not a proficient swimmer, which heightened concerns about his safety and the urgency of the rescue operation.

He was a criminal, an abuser, likely who didn't want to face justice of his actions and took his own life because he could not face the consequences of what he did. The victims have told the family his crimes, with evidence. The family knows he was arrested and convicted of possession of CSAM. They know who and what he was.
