[to his adopted son, about his girlfriend] Leah's injuries were really serious. She stopped breathing. We put a tube down her throat to deliver oxygen. We were able to drain the blood that was collapsing her lungs. We gave her as much blood as we could. We even transfused some of her own blood that was in her chest. But we were unable to get ahead of the massive blood loss. Her heart stopped. You saw me doing CPR. We did everything that we could.
She's dead?
Robinavitch: Her heart was damaged beyond repair. There was nothing that we could do to save her. And I don't know how many people I've helped today, but I can tell you every other person who has died. There was a man named Mr. Spencer, who died in front of his children, and an 18-year-old who who was brain dead from a fentanyl overdose and a guy with a heart condition and a little girl who drowned trying to save her sister. [sobbing] And I'm gonna remember Leah long after you've forgotten her.
