House fire kills a little boy

This happened in my town, and it breaks my heart. A little boy aged 7 or 8, died because his dad decided to leave him while he was sleeping and some how the house *mysteriously* caught fire in the 5-10 min he was gone~

I dont get that at all!! But anyways...please keep the family in your prayers. The 2 older sisters were not home at the time either......

The mom lives in another town and was not available for anyone to get ahold of. This just breaks my heart!!

That is so so sad... I just don't get it at all Bless him.
Back in December there was a family of 10 killed here in a fire, none of it makes sense.

Wow.. that's really sad.

I'm surprised I haven't heard about this until now.

Aww how sad. We had that happen last April in our town. My old apt caught fire and kill a lil boy, an older couple, the boys mom and dad, and a younger girl up in the 4th floor. What really irritates me about it is the only person who survived was suspected to start the fire and he ended up killing himself a week later. It was his littler brother mother and step father that were killed. I also had just moved out of there officially with my kids a couple months before hand. The landlord didnt have fire alarms in any of the aptments and didnt even care. He just blocked off the property after it was cleared out and threw away the memorials that we had put up for Tylor and his family..He is a giant *explicit word* and didnt even care that people had died he just worried about being able to sell off the property....

UPDATE!!

Looks as if the dad getting charged!! I hope to hell he does! What idiot leaves a 8 y/o sleeping while hes out and about!?!? Just infuriates me!!!

Many thoughts and prayers for the little boys family members...How very tragic that is..

The town I live in has lost 6 children to fires in the past 3 weeks, in 2 separate fires.
The first fire took the lives of 5 siblings, ages 10 years to 5 months. The parents were at a night-club, got into a fight with the mother's cousin, so he went to the parents' house and set fire to it. Of course, first he had to walk to a gas station at 2 am and buy gas in milk jugs! How unbelievable is that? Apparently he was so drunk he didn't think about the possibility of the kids being in the house. The parents weren't charged with any crime; I guess the state's attorney figured losing their entire family was enough. But who the h*ll goes out and leaves 5 kids home by themselves when the oldest is only 10?!
The second fire was a week and a half later. The mother stepped out while the 4 year old boy was sleeping. There was a lit candle in the house and somehow it set the place on fire. Of course, she was only gone "10 minutes or so". Yeah, right. In this case, they're debating whether to charge her with child endangerment.
Things like this just shouldn't happen.

OMG, what is wrong with some parents?!?

May that precious boy rest in peace
