re: Derrius Guice's 3yo cousin (not son) has passed away #PrayforRadyn

Ah, Texas.

In that case, I think the owner of the gun can be charged with a misdemeanor if the gun was in a location where the owner should have reasonably known the child could access it.

I went to summer school with the mom in HS and she was one of the nicest people I've ever met, I don't even know what to say about this I can't imagine what she must be going thru and what she will go through the rest of her life but I hope God heels her fully. she's too young to have gone through such a terrible tragedy.

My imagination of what the parents are going through is pure hell, though I know I probably have no idea of what their hell truly is. I lost my Daddy at the end of March and every day, I want a do over. I want to go back in time. I know my pain is nothing like theirs.

I feel especially horrible for the father. He thought he'd put the gun up high enough. I hope he's not charged with anything. His personal hell on earth is punishment enough. I hope he's able to care for the other two little children and his wife through this. I don't know how, but I hope he can.

I hope this incident serves a reminder that little people have a way of getting to things they want and they move so quickly. As another poster said, you take your eyes off them for a few seconds and they can disappear. So many things are of interest to curious little minds.

I bought some ant spray and some wasp spray the other day and I was about to put it out on a shelf near the pool area. I changed my mind and put it way up high in another room. I figured if one of the little kids saw it being sprayed and saw how far the stuff sprayed, they might want to try it out themselves. Seeing their little water guns out by the pool made me think of that. So many things to think about with little ones.

Prayers for strength, forgiveness and the ability to live with the grief and enjoy the other two little ones.

So sad.

As a parent I don’t think I could live with the guilt of leaving a gun accessible to a 3 year old in a situation like this. Just a horrible story all around.

As if the grief of losing a child was not enough, the feelings of guilt and responsibility must be unbearable. I feel horrible for this family and truly hope they can find peace and move forward for the other children. This is such a tragedy.

Man. As a parent...this would be soul crushing. If my son was lying in that bed brain dead I’d probably die right there beside him, because I don’t know how you go on after that.

Praying as hard as I can for them.

Its not Darius kid they said

Any update on the police investigation?
