Amanda, then 27, found her daughter Adrianna floating face down and hauled her out.
However, it later emerged it was not a tragic accident in Esto, Florida.
Her
terrified son AJ, the key witness in the case, told cops Adrianna made
'momma mad' after spraying cleaning fluid over the television.
In the interview he said his mum had "dunked" and "drowned" his sister - and demonstrated how she did it.
AJ said: "She done some stuff that she ain't supposed to so my momma got mad, so she throwed her in the pool."
