Three little boys killed in fire after their grandfather's ex burnt his home a day after she was released from jail

Three boys aged 4, 6 and 10 were killed in a house fire started by their grandfather's ex-girlfriend.

The woman, Marian Evette Williams, 49, of West Davison Street in Bartow, Florida, had threatened to burn the house down a week before but was arrested after she was caught burglarizing the house. She was released from jail a day before the fire.

On Saturday morning, at about 4:30 a.m. a fire broke out in the house, killing Marcus Clark,10, Kiani Clark, 8, and Kemaren Clark, 4. The grandfather escaped with serious injuries and was admitted to the ICU while the second adult in the house escaped unhurt. Marian was arrested on Sunday and is facing charges of arson, attempted murder, and three counts of murder charges. She will remain in jail on no bond.

Marian has been in and out of prison since 1991 on charges like drug dealing, driving with a suspended license and felony DUI.

Neighbours reacted to the killing, saying it was a horrible thing to do, especially with kids involved.

"I think it’s almost [incomprehensible] that a human being could do something like that, knowing that there were occupants in the house,"a neighbour told Fox 6.

"Just very sad to hear that something, especially children, would die. It’s, it’s horrible."

"It was a sad morning just waking up to something like that, man. I mean it's involving kids,' another neighbour, Terry Bing, Sr., told NBC 2.

Akanna Okeke: 6 Ways to Make People Like You

I’ve been told numerous times that I am very likable and I have seen this for myself too. Somehow, I just seem to obtain the favour of those around me; from bosses to teachers, to friends to colleagues. I remember leaving my last job and there was a send off gathering where each co-worker was asked to say what they thought about me. I got comments like: “He’s a politician”; “He’s in everybody’s camp”; “No, he’s smart and diplomatic. He knows how to please everybody and stay close to key people”.

Snoop Dogg Would Have Gotten “Jail Time” If – Trump

Donald Trump took aim Wednesday at Snoop Dogg, saying the rap star would have gotten “jail time” had he pointed his gun at Barack Obama rather than the current US president in a video. Snoop Dogg, an early figure in California gangsta rap who has mellowed in recent years, this week released a video pegged to the release of his album “Lavender” in which most actors are clowns. One clown — unmistakably a parody of Trump, sporting bouffant hair and a red tie that dangles below the waist — gesticulates wildly at the podium of “The Clown House.” The clown puts his hands up as if under arrest as Snoop Dogg draws a pistol, with a flag popping out that says “Bang!” “Can you imagine what the outcry would be if @SnoopDogg, failing career and all, had aimed and fired the gun at President Obama? Jail time!” Trump wrote on Twitter. Snoop Dogg was one of the leading rappers of the 1990s with hits such as “What’s My Name?” and “Gin & Juice.” In recent years, he has shed h...
