Teen Who Died In Fire Was Chained To Bed
What a horrible death for this teenager! I do not believe for a second that the alarm was not working, I hope these parents are held responsible because they have been warned in the past about this.

| CENTREVILLE - A 16-year-old girl who died in a house fire Wednesday was chained to her bed. Michigan State Police told 24 Hour News 8 Calista Springer never had a chance to get out of the burning house. Springer was a special needs teenager with severe emotional issues who had tried to previously tried to escape from the home in the middle of the night. Her father and stepmother told police they only recently started tying Calista down after an alarm system they had in place broke. And the stepmother told firefighters right away Calista was upstairs tethered to the top bunk of a bunk bed. Crews got a ladder to the bedroom window, but the fire was too intense and they could not get inside. The teen died lying on her back, with a chain and zip ties around her waist, and attached to a bolt on the side of the bed. Investigators said they tested the alarm and found it worked. Police believe the parents had been chaining Calista for some time because they got tired of getting up every time the alarm went off. |

SO the alarm actually worked but they were too lazy to care for their special needs daughter. I think they both should be charged with murder. It would not be a surprise for the fire dept to come back and say the fire was arson. I think the parents go so tired they started the fire that killed their daughter. I feel sorry this girl had to have them as parents instead of someone who truly would have cared for her.
