SEFFNER — Two more homes have been condemned after a sinkhole swallowed and killed a Seffner man last month, and we’re getting our first look at video shot inside the home before it was demolished.
Jeffrey Bush, 37, died when the hole opened up while he slept in the bedroom of the Faithway Drive home. His brother, Jeremy, tried to jump into the hole and save Jeff. He said at the time part of the bed could be seen below in the hole.
But the video — shot by a contractor who examined the hole just before the home was demolished and provided by the county — shows the sinkhole had grown to the point that it had swallowed the bed and Jeff Bush’s body completely. All that can be seen in the hole is dirt.
The footage shows there was almost no floor remaining in the bedroom, though amazingly, clothes and other personal effects were still hanging on the walls, apparently undisturbed.
Bush’s body was never recovered. The family has said they’re hoping to regain control of the property from the county so they can setup a permanent memorial for Jeff.
