Well your LCD is fried along with probably the dock flex cable and honestly there could be several other hardware issues now due to water damage.
But the LCD is obviously toast.

I seriously doubt it. It should have been turned off immediately and stuffed in a ziplock bad with rice to let dry for a week or so.
It doesnt take very long for water to creep in and all it has to do is touch to fry.

The truth hurts

The iphone is probably one of the worst devices at taking moisture ever built.

fix your LCD
Hi,
My brother is TheIphoneMD. His website is TheIphoneMD.com but is currently under construction. You can get your LCD replaced for half the cost of taking into a store. He accepts phones by mail and guarantees the work as well as a 24hr turn around. You also have the option of purchasing expedited shipping back to you. I hope this helps! Shoot me an email if your interested.
