"It’s a tragedy, but at the end of the day it’s charging a very young person with one of the most serious crimes we have," Minger said. "But I just think it needs to be done at this point, for finality." Katie Alwood’s son became a ward of the state after investigators concluded he intentionally set fire to his family’s home in Goodfield on April 6.

ABC7 mentioned that the victim was not seriously injured in the fire. Despite minor injuries that were sustained, the male victim requested not to be taken to the hospital in assessment of the injuries. There has been no information released by officials that details the identity of the victim, or how the woman knew him.

Minger said that therapy and counseling for the boy would be likely as well. Within minutes of firefighters responding to the scene, the home was engulfed in flames. Minger said he decided to charge the boy after reading through various authoritative reports about the fire numerous times. Officials have yet to release details about how the fire was started.
Days later, a judge in the case issued a gag order pertaining to the boy’s protective care case, a DCFS official confirmed. It’s not clear whether her decision to release photos of her son to the media played a role in the judge’s decision. The county medical examiner’s office ruled the five deaths homicides in April after consulting with the state fire marshal’s office, the county sheriff’s office and the local fire protection district. Feeney explained the juvenile counts and legal processes to the boy, who told the judge he didn’t understand, the Chicago Tribune added.

A NINE-year-old boy cried in court as he was charged with the murder of his five relatives who burned to death in a horrific house fire. The fire took place in early April in a mobile home in Goodfield, Illinois, east of Peoria. It claimed the lives of Jason Wall, 34, and two children — Daemeon Wall, 2, and Ariel Wall, 1 — that he had with the 9-year-old boy’s mother, Katie Alwood.

Stephen 'tWitch' Boss, the amiable DJ for 'Ellen DeGeneres Show' and dancer who rose to fame on 'So You Think You Can Dance,' has died, according to information from the Los Angeles County Coroner. Canadians are bracing for a winter storm bringing snow to Saskatchewan, Manitoba, Ontario, and Quebec, and ending in already-buried Atlantic Canada. CTV News has asked police why they are describing the fire as suspicious and where it occurred. "At this time the cause of the fire is unknown. Ridge Meadows RCMP and Maple Ridge Fire Department are completing parallel investigations to determine the cause of the fire," the statement said.

The child has not been named and Mr Minger would not discuss the nine-year-old’s sex, or relationship to the victims. Both the man and the infant were taken to a nearby hospital for treatment and are expected to survive the ordeal. Investigators expect that numerous charges will eventually be leveled against the man once he recovers. Local firefighters were called to the scene once deputies noticed smoke pouring out of the ground-floor apartment. Responders from the Sacramento Metropolitan Fire District used an ax to cut their way into the bathroom from a neighboring unit, where the father and child were found unconscious and rescued.

However, neighbors claimed that the family didn't even have cable television, and was unable to view the show. In Moraine, Ohio, on October 6, 1993, five-year-old Austin Messner, set fire to his mother's mobile home with a cigarette lighter, killing his two-year-old sister, Jessica. A county firefighter just happened to spot the quickly growing fire on his way home from work and called 911, according to authorities.

In 2018, 62 juveniles under the age of 15 were arrested on charges of murder and nonnegligent manslaughter in the US, according to FBI crime statistics. A spokesperson for the state's attorney's office told BuzzFeed News that Minger declined to comment or provide any other details as it was a juvenile case. Minger said he scoured multiple reports on the fire before proceeding with the prosecution.

The suspect will be appointed an attorney and will be subject to a bench trial, in front of a judge, he said. Charges alleging violent crimes against children are rare, said Clark, adding that she hasn’t heard of other cases in which someone that young was charged with so many killings.

The children, her two boys and niece, were there alone at the time. Swain reportedly left Brendon Mahone, 9, his brother, Zyahir Swain, 8, and their cousin Madison Swain, 4, for three hours. She now faced three counts of second-degree child abuse and up to ten years in prison. A 9-year-old from Illinois was charged with murder on Tuesday in connection with a fire at a mobile home earlier this year that killed five people, including three children. The local prosecutor told CBS News he defends his decision to file murder charges, but that Kyle is only expected to face probation. Alwood said she hopes the judge takes into consideration Kyle's mental state and the person she says he is.
Norton doesn’t blame her son and takes responsibility for what happened. She wants to warn other parents about the dangers of keeping lighters in the house. She was able to grab her son and evacuate the home with a few of the family pets. The fire started in 9-year-old Xavier’s bedroom where he was playing with a lighter in the closet. Alwood said her son deserves to pay for his alleged actions but said the family has already suffered enough. "I stood at the window and I told my kids I was sorry I couldn't save them," Alwood said.
