A 26-year-old Florida mother has been charged with first-degree arson and child abuse after prosecutors say she poured hot candle wax on her two young daughters and deliberately started a fire in the kitchen of their Miami home, according to arrest affidavits.
The Miami-Dade Fire Rescue responded to a reported kitchen blaze on 16 August. Investigators determined the fire was deliberately started using an open flame, combustible materials and an ignitable liquid while the young children were inside. The investigation expanded after authorities discovered Campos-Sanchez had posted videos on Instagram.
