Another Gender Reveal Ends in Fire and Death: Manslaughter Charges
[quote]A couple whose gender reveal ceremony sparked a Southern California wildfire that killed a firefighter last year were charged with involuntary manslaughter, authorities announced Tuesday.
[qote]Refugio Manuel Jimenez Jr. and Angela Renee Jimenez pleaded not guilty Monday to charges involving the El Dorado Fire, San Bernardino County District Attorney Jason Anderson announced at a news conference. The charges included one felony count of involuntary manslaughter, along with other felony and misdemeanor counts related to the fire.
[quote]The El Dorado Fire erupted on Sept. 5 when the couple and their young children staged a baby gender reveal at El Dorado Ranch Park in Yucaipa, at the foot of the San Bernardino Mountains.
[quote]On Sept. 17, flames overran a remote area where firefighters were cutting fire breaks, killing Charles Morton, the 39-year-old leader of the elite Big Bear Interagency Hotshot Squad. Morton had worked as a firefighter for 18 years, mostly with the U.S. Forest Service.
[quote]The blaze injured 13 other people and forced the evacuations of hundreds of residents in small communities in the San Bernardino National Forest area. It destroyed five homes and 15 other buildings.
[quote]The blaze blackened nearly 36 square miles (92 square kilometers) of land in San Bernardino and Riverside counties before it was contained on Nov. 16.

How can they even have a gender reveal right now? The proper thing to do os to wait until the child is 10 years old and let them tell you how they identify.

They are setting fires that get people and animals killed, and we are suppose to trust them with a baby. Do not do these Gender Reveal Parties. They are STUPID, not a thing and DANGEROUS.

Actually, at R12's link, the woman says she regrets it because blah blah blah genderqueer. Her daughter wears suits, so she now sees the error of her ways.
