Family Agonizes Over Who Destroyed Their Home and Lives
But while the children continue the fight for their lives, it is very much emotional time for their mother, Melisa, and family members in Belize. To add salt to the wounds, no one has been detained for the murder and arson.
Christopher Hamilton, Uncle of Burn Victims
“It’s really crazy due to the fact that no one has been arrested for the situation as yet. They have no information or nothing like that. My other sister, she is doing alright. But it’s her kids and she is right there witnessing this whole situation and watching her kids go through this whole process, it kinda takes a toll on the mind. She is optimistic, like all of us, but there comes some point in time when she gets a little depressed, but we try to uplift her and try to talk to her through the phone and thing cause we are not there. They are miles away from us so we try to provide that moral support by just talking through the phone, sending a message.”

“Mister Hamilton, are you still concerned about the fact that nobody has been charged, but your other sister also lost her kid in that fire. And nothing, it seems, has been done.”
Christopher Hamilton
“And that’s the part. The person or persons, whoever doing, they are right in the public with us; walking around, seeing us every day. We don’t even know who it is. And my sister lost her little son. And mien this is taking a lot on the family. It is taking a lot on the family.”
