Naya "River" a, the veteran actress and singer who was best known for her role as the straight-shooting Santana Lopez in Glee, has died. The Ventura County sheriff’s department declared Rivera missing on the late evening of July 8 after her 4-year-old son, Josey, was discovered alone on a boat on Lake Piru. Authorities announced today that Rivera’s body was recovered from the lake this morning after a days-long search. She was 33 years old.
At a news conference Monday afternoon, Ventura County Sheriff Bill Ayub shared Josey told the VCSD: “We know from speaking with her son, that he and Naya swam in the lake together at some point during their journey. It was during that time that her son described being helped into the boat by Naya, who boosted him onto the deck from behind. He told investigators that he looked back and saw her disappear under the surface of the water.” Ayub added that “there are a lot of currents on the lake that appear particularly in the afternoon. The idea perhaps being that the boat started drifting, it was unanchored, and that she mustered enough energy to get her son back onto the boat, but not enough to save herself.”Fair Use Notice:
