Four children dead, mother in a coma after being victims of arson

Michelle Pearson always had a feeling that she and her four children weren’t safe in their home.

Instead of pushing this anxious feeling aside, Michelle asked for help from the local authorities. However, they all refused to listen to her. Michelle’s sister, Claire, couldn’t help but say that they have let her loved one down. It resulted into such a sad tragedy that will leave the family at a loss on how to deal with it.

Claire said:

“Michelle’s been unsafe in that property for months and months and the police was aware of this, and the social services was aware of this, the council was aware of this, and I’m sorry to say this but … they’ve let her down, and my sister and her kids would have had a chance of survival if they did their job properly.“

December 11 of this year, Michelle’s home burst into flames. Her four children, Demi, Brandon, Lacie, and Lia, didn’t survive the ordeal. But what’s worse is that Michelle has no clue that she is now childless because she is in a coma. Local authorities believe that the fire was due to arson and not some faulty wiring.

Mike Pearson, Michelle’s father, revealed that his daughter begged for her family to be moved into a safer house just a week before this incident happened. Unfortunately, social services didn’t listen because they thought that nothing bad would happen.

Three people were charged with the murder of Michelle’s children. Mike is at a loss at how their family will survive the situation. The grieving man doesn’t know how to open this up to Michelle once she wakes up. Is there a proper way of saying to a clueless mother that her children are now gone?

We pray for Michelle and her family to find peace and happiness despite trying times.

Here are some netizens offering their condolences and opinions to the grieving family:
