The family of Henrich Siemens and his 13-year-old son, who was behind the wheel of the 2007 Dodge 2500 pickup truck involved in the accident, previously suffered the loss of their home
the Daily Mail, a British tabloid that digs into news, reports, the house burned down because meth was being cooked inside on Oct 24th 2021
Heinrich, a father-of-five, was facing two criminal charges that could have landed him in prison because of his previous criminal history at the time of his death and already had a laundry list of criminal charges and convictions stemming back as far as 2004
that poor kid never stood a chance in this world, fuck. That's sad
Now the truth comes out. We learned of this in the news but no explanation. What a careless 38-year-old who let a 13-year-old drive the pick up which resulted in all these lives lost. Tears.
ReplyDeleteNot all that common these days, but when I came to Texas in 85 I saw many kids under 14 driving trucks in the farm county areas.
ReplyDeleteok. No argument with that. But this had a 38 year old guy passenger. No explanation offered. I suspect the kid was driving his drunk dad home, as the news stated that the crash was in the dark.
DeleteThe boy had also recently burned the family's house down when he forgot he was cooking, leaving the family homeless. I'm pretty sure I read the passenger was his dad.
ReplyDeleteoh no, burned the house down, accidentally, then died from not being able to have good tires on a truck he shouldn't be driving. There was not a moment of getting a break in life for that poor kid.
