You hear of nasty child custody battles of divorced couples, but to risk killing your children I think is the ultimate. Read the news story here news.yahoo.com/uk-couple-face-jail-killing-6-children-fire-135836175.html
Apparently this man hated this woman bad enough to risk losing these children just so the woman wouldn't have them. But he wasn't thinking when he planned to be the "hero" some thing could go wrong. So, I guess he won't have to worry about the ex having custody of the children. With 15 children maybe he wanted to get out of paying child support, but what ever the reason,his original plan of starting a house fire and being the "hero" by rescuing them is going to end him up in jail.

Oh that is terrible are the children okay? How could any father take a risk like that and I cannot imagine how this will effect the children when they hear of the truth.

I have a friend who just went through a messy divorce. She was very close to her son before that, however once divorce proceedings started her husband started "poisoning" her son's mind and convinced her son that she did not love him that much since she did not spend so much money on him. By the end of the divorce my friend was so upset with the person that the son has now become that she chose to give up care and control anyway.

He and his wife killed all this legitimate children in the fire, that is all the children whom the courts would have given the inheritance to so maybe it could have been financial. So it could have been greed. He did not want his mistress to have them. So maybe the courts found out that this man and his wife were not good parenting material. Nor did they care about their own children - starting a fire that would get out of control. I can see slandering the mistress by putting out a false report about her, but murdering your own children that is worse then just saying bad about someone.

Words fail me. He must be a sociopath or Mr. Evil nhimself. I read the whole article. I cannot express the disgust and anger that I feel. There is a special place in hell for this evil man

Those are the kind of people that belong in jail. And unfortunatly they are even applauded until they do something that is beyond repair. But before that, there should be laws about his gathering of children from relationships that, I`m sure, were far from being healthy and moral.

The pressure and probably his hatred over his ex has clouded his mind. It was insane of him to do such a thing. One thing is arson and the other thing is murder/homicide.

I can't not believe that someone would decide to come up with such a plan just to get custody of their kids. Now because of his stupidity he has lost six of them, plus he has lost the other kids because he will be most likely in jail for life. Thoses poor kids! I hope the courts find justice for those poor little souls. They did not deserve to die so young. Even though I know that was not the plan he was trying to cheat the system and looks where it got him; No where but prison. This is what happens when you lie, cheat, and have a criminal mind. Thankfully the cops were on top of their game to have bugged the hotel room and find out the real truth.

Absolutely sickening! No good parent would ever put their child at risk to better themselves in any situation... I cannot believe this.
