Oregon Woman And Her Four Kids Were Stabbed Then Left To Burn To Death In Their Home

Fire rescuers were called to the home at approximately 9:30 am, but police say they had been at the residence just four hours before:

Before the fire began, Criado called cops to report his wife was missing, the Medford Mail Tribune reported.

Officers found the woman a few blocks away at a convenience store and escorted her home.

“They both met and conversed,” George said of the couple. “What happened between 7:30 and 9:30 in roughly a two-hour time span is what we are trying to figure out right now.”

What’s really sad is those kids — two of them were briefly showing a heartbeat after being pulled from the home, unfortunately they didn’t make it.

“The front yard looked like it was a plane crash or something, the people working on those folks,” said Medford police Chief Tim George.

“There were some heroic efforts on the part of police and fire personnel. My understanding is they were actually able to get a pulse on two of those children at the scene, but they eventually succumbed.”

This is such a terrible tragedy. It’s even more sad to think that had the police not found her after the initial call, or had her husband been thoroughly punished for his past crimes, she and her kids might still be alive.
