One of the worst outcomes of life.

My SIL used to work for this doctor. No day is to be taken for granted.

I worry about this sort of thing anytime my wife is out with the kids and I don't hear from them for hours. I would be a wreck if I ever got this news. Can't imagine.

This is terrible. My law school roommate and his three little children burned up in a wreck while the wife watched.
I will spare further harrowing details.

I believe his wife is a nurse practitioner. Prayers for that unfortunate family.

I’ve always said if my kid can’t get out then I won’t get out.
No way in hell would I let her dies alone.

He got the wife and one kid out, but it exploded while he was trying to get the other 2 out.

Oh no! Awful, just awful.

I pray for those precious babies that passed, for a speedy recovery for Mrs Thompson and their severely injured child and for Dr. Thompson.

I cannot even imagine the shock and sorrow Dr.Thompson and the citizens of Rayville must be feeling right now.

Lord Jesus, please cause to fall upon this man, his family and the good people of Rayville a flood of graces and healing. Amen

Terrible. I had a friend many years back who watched his two trapped children burn to death in their car. The guy had burn scars on his arms like you wouldn't believe from trying to get the kids out.


Pretty sure if I witnessed that happen to my kids I’d drink myself to death in a year. Not sure I could handle it

Grain trucks are the worst. Most sit all year without running and farmers don’t maintain them properly and they hire seasonal crackheads to drive them with no CDL since it’s not required as long as you’re within a 100 mile radius of the farm

Im curious as to what kind SUV it was.
What happened to the grain truck driver? Toxicology report needed.

I bet the grain truck brakes failed. Seen it happen too many times, farmers drag those ragged trucks out once a year and toss a new battery in and put them on the road without proper maintenance checks

I hope the doctor gets the farm, and all the other land in the farmer’s family.

You hire crackheads and methheads on the cheap, then you open yourself up to losing everything in lawsuits when they cause carnage, mayhem, and death.
