Asked whether it was possible Mr Parker had stayed in one place and did not move towards Mr Beckwith, she said: “I don’t know because when it happened Harry landed right on Michael.
Ms Smith told the court she thought Mr Parker may have moved towards Mr Beckwith as the care worker jumped in.
On Monday, his support worker Harry Beckwith told the court that Mr Parker was “jumping in and out” of the pool prior to his death.
Mr Parker jumped into the pool, to his left, Mr Beckwith said.
“Michael was jumping in and out of the pool, doing his dancing and all that so I decided to jump in with him so he could enjoy his holiday and we jumped in and out a few good times before the incident happened,” Mr Beckwith said.
