Codey A. Porter
Birth: Apr. 17, 1997
Death: Mar. 10, 2008

The bizarre incident, which happened on Saturday, may have been sparked by a television cartoon.
Family members describe Codey, a fifth grader at Silver Firs Elementary School in Everett, as smart and imaginative. Unfortunately, it may have been his imagination that led to his death.
The cartoon "Naruto" shows the characters using sand as a tool and weapon and could have been what Codey and the others were trying to mimic when he was buried, headfirst, in a sandbox in the backyard of the house.
Codey was buried roughly from his head to his chest. At some point, he began thrashing around, but the children apparently thought he was playing.
Eventually they figured out something was wrong. They pulled Codey out and called the adults inside the home, who administered CPR until an aid car arrived.
