COLUMBIA, S.C. (WIS) - Bond has been denied for a 23-year-old woman who was arrested after investigators said she intentionally set her car on fire while her 14-month-old son sat inside, burning him severely all over this body.
Police say Caylin Watson lit her car on fire with her 14-month-old baby inside, burning him severely all over his body.
The Columbia Police Department has charged Caylin Watson with attempted murder, first-degree arson, third-degree arson, and abuse/infliction of great bodily injury on a child.
Investigators said the car was parked near mile marker 1 on I-126 West just after 1:30 p.m. on Sunday.
Because of the fire, the child suffered severe burns on his body and is listed in critical condition at the Augusta Burn Center. Watson was also treated for minor injuries at a local hospital before she was taken to jail.
Four witnesses traveling along the highway saw the car on fire and stopped to help by either calling 911 or getting out of their vehicles to help the child.
Columbia Police officers arrived on the scene along with members of the Columbia Fire Department to put out the fire.
Watson was detained by authorities after they found evidence suggesting the fire was intentionally set.
The South Carolina Law Enforcement Division helped with processing the crime scene.
It was just a post partum abortion, I’m sure that the abortion folks will pay for her defense lawyers.
My husband in Jan had 3rd degree burns on his back and his butt cheeks from dropping hot pot of water and slipping and landing on it. It took the wind out of him and for 2 min he laid on floor and I tried to get him up. Finally able to get him up. I got his wet clothes off of him and his skin was coming off his back and butt. 2min laying in hot boiling water.
He was in BURN UNIT FOR 2 WKS. 5 skin grafts. They had to put him under to debride his skin and wrap him, which took 2 hours. I had to due his wound care for a month.
I can’t even imagine this poor baby going through burn treatment. It is very very painful.
I don’t understand people who think depraved sadism is a really constructive response to depraved sadism. Does this protect and build up your soul or your society?
Thanks.
I wasn’t sure of the reaction I’d get for that.
I know it’s not usually a popular way to pray, but sometimes I just feel that’s the right thing to do.
Amen.
Thank you, that makes sense.
Nope. Definitely non-white.
