Bug Spray May Have Killed Infant, Injured 2 in South Carolina Quote: WILLIAMSTON, S.C. — Authorities say bug spray that produces a fog to kill insects may be to blame for the death of a 10-month-old South Carolina boy and his critically injured 2-year-old brother. Anderson County Deputy Coroner Don McCown said the boys' mother had been using foggers because of an insect problem. Elizabeth Whitfield called 911 on Sunday to report her youngest boy was having trouble breathing. Paramedics took all three to a hospital, where Jacob Whitfield died. Kenneth Whitfield remained in critical condition, and Elizabeth Whitfield returned to the ER with breathing problems. McCown says investigators found seven fogger containers in the single-wide mobile home. He says a single fogger is typically used to treat 6,000 cubic feet http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,...est=latestnews

That is horrible. IMHO, she did it on purpose. She should be charged as well. If her bug problem was that bad, then she should have removed the junk from that home. She was exterminating her children by leaving them inside the house. She and the bugs could hide in the junk, or leave the home, to avoid the noxious fumes. The poor babies couldn't hide from it, at all. __________________ KC "For every trucker with a headache,there is another with an aspirin in their pocket." Tough Times Don't Last...Tough People Do
