She explained, “I understand it has disturbed some people. As I have said, I am a truth teller so here’s the truth. It’s a picture of a child, taken by her mother, of her playing in their backyard in a tub of water.”
Curtis concluded the post, “Nothing more, nothing less. I took down the post because I didn’t want to keep something up that upset anyone.”
