That’s Bridgeport, in 1900 one of the wealthiest city’s in the USA, now a third world demorat shithole.
The other mother should sue her. What a 💩 thing to do to a kid. I’d never hit a woman, but a lady like that I wouldn’t hesitate to sick my wife on her, if it was my kid.
It worked. Sympathy got them half-a-million dollars. I don’t think the narrative of the kid being stupid and burning himself would have helped to raise nearly that much. But as a victim of bullying it is a much easier sell. Either way, the kid does need help. But it should not be at the expense of another child being falsely accused of doing this intentionally.
I recently read that they were playing with matches and gasoline and it got out of hand. Anything to get sympathy and lots of money for nothing.
I thought the video debunked the claim.
