Fathers Ring of Flames | True Crime Podcast

Missouri dad accused of pepper spraying his three daughters and stepdaughter and setting his teenage stepson on fire in a "ring of flames."
Authorities say a 50-year-old man burned a 13-year-old child and pepper-sprayed two other youths. He faces multiple crimes.
According to the court records of Laclede County, Missouri, Timothy Easton was charged with two charges of child abuse and neglect and one case of child abuse and neglect causing serious emotional or bodily injury.
According to KOZL-TV A 13-year-old kid presented to the ER on August 24 with burns covering 10% to 19% of his body, primarily his chest and thighs. According to what deputies have heard, Easton allegedly put the child in a "ring of fire" and then kicked a gasoline can at him as the teenager tried to escape. The gas allegedly "sparked" when it came into contact with the lighter, causing the boy's burns.
Easton is the teen's stepfather, and the "ring of fire" happened in front of their house, as reported by KY3-TV.
Since Easton allegedly did not allow the boy's mother to get help for the burns, by the time the kid got to the hospital, the injuries were already roughly two weeks old.
Pepper spray was also used on Easton's 16-year-old daughter and 12-year-old stepdaughter, according to reports.
It has been reported that Sheriff David Millsap made the following statement: "The investigation revealed evidence that the suspect made repeated threats of physical violence and verbal abuse towards the mother and her children. The evidence suggests that the mother was prevented from providing her child with medical attention."
Apparently, Easton is being kept indefinitely without bond.
A babysitter in Mississippi has been jailed after a 2-year-old toddler died from injuries.
Two toddlers in the babysitter's care ended up in the hospital, and one of them ended up dying. The babysitter, a 23-year-old woman, was arrested and charged with their deaths.
An unresponsive youngster was reported to the Alcorn County Sheriff's Office at 9:10 p.m. on Tuesday, September 13, according to a press release. A male victim, age 2, was found bruised and marked at the site, according to reports.
The Sheriff's Department reported that they found an injured 11-month-old girl during their investigation of the residence. Le Bonheur Children's Hospital was reportedly where both victims were taken.
The Sheriff's Office eventually discovered that Makallie Durham was responsible for the children when they were injured. According to reports, Durham was arrested on a minor warrant and taken to the Alcorn County Jail.
The Sheriff's Office said that the 2-year-old child had passed away on September 15 due to his injuries. The infant, who is 11 months old, is said to be doing well.
The Sheriff's Office has stated that Durham will be charged with capital murder and felony child abuse in light of the child's death. To this day, she is still being imprisoned in Alcorn County.

The Utah man who drove drunk and killed his wife in the airport parking lot has been convicted and sentenced to jail time.
A man was given prison time for his wife's death after he allegedly drove her over in an airport parking lot upon their return from vacation.
As reported by KUTV Upon Shawn Sturgeon's guilty plea to second-degree vehicular homicide while under the influence of drugs or alcohol and domestic abuse in the presence of a child, the judge sentenced him to one to twenty years in prison.
It has been reported by KSTU-TV. Sturgeon entered a guilty plea in July.
There are reports that at the sentence, Sturgeon remarked, "The events of April 4, 2022 were all my fault as a parent and a spouse, and I accept full responsibility for them. The journey home after a much-anticipated family holiday was marred by my own selfish decision to overindulge in alcohol, which led to my passing and, more crucially, the loss of Charlotte Sturgeon, a genuine angel."
Despite his inability to forgive himself, Sturgeon vowed to spend the rest of his life making amends.
Reportedly, Sturgeon ran over his wife Charlotte, who was holding their infant child, at the Salt Lake City Airport parking lot after they had returned from a trip. It has been reported by the police that Charlotte, a 28-year-old woman, was taken to the hospital where attempts were made to save her life.
For criminal carelessness while under the influence of alcohol or drugs causing death in an automobile, he was arrested.
KUTV reports that before Sturgeon ran over his wife, the couple argued in the parking lot and that his blood alcohol content was roughly three times the legal limit.

A man wearing a rainbow wig and claiming to be a prophet was caught with a weapon at a Dairy Queen in Pennsylvania.
On the weekend, police detained a 61-year-old man who allegedly entered a Dairy Queen while wearing a rainbow wig and declared his intention to "return Trump to president of the United States."
Delmont Police were called to the Route 66 Dairy Queen at 1:30 p.m. on Saturday, September 10, after receiving a report of a guy driving recklessly while wearing a wig and fluorescent safety vest, as reported by Trib Live. The man, identified as Jan Stawovy, allegedly parked his car and entered the fast food joint while armed with a revolver.
According to Trib Live, Delmont Police Chief T.J. Klobucar, customers were present inside Dairy Queen when Stawovy walked in. It was stated that a group of people with intellectual disabilities were entering at the same time.
WTAJ-TV, citing the police report, states that upon their arrival, Stawovy told them that he was "undercover with Pennsylvania State Police working on a massive drug sting." The police say he raged at them, claimed to be a prophet, and told them he often communicates with the Almighty.
To "return Trump to the president of the United States" and "murder all the Democrats because Trump was still president," Stawovy allegedly kept repeating, per WTAJ's reporting.
Sometime earlier that day, Stawovy allegedly visited the same Dairy Queen and put $120 on the counter, explaining that it was a gratuity for "non-Democrats."
Reports indicate that a Delmont Police officer searched Stawovy's vehicle and located two firearms along with 62 bullets.
The reports state that Stawovy did not have the proper documentation to carry guns.
Live coverage from Trib Recently, Stawovy was barred from attending services at a local church due to reports of disruptive behavior on his part
According to the court documents, Stawovy has been charged with firearm not to be carried without a license, making terroristic threats with the intent to intimidate another person, engaging in disorderly behavior, and being a person not to possess/use a handgun.
Klobucar lauded Officer Greg Stull in a statement, saying that Stull "was able to prevent the danger of a mass fatality tragedy" since he got "on location within a minute of being summoned."
In an email, Klobucar expressed his appreciation to Officer Stull for his quick steps following a situation that could have gone very differently.
