Or perhaps the burned boy’s mom, who was babysitting and supposed to be watching all the boys including the “bully” , didn’t want people to know just how little she was watching them.
I realize NYC post is basically a tablet, but there are many other sources.

Dominicks mother still stands by her original version, she said there is video missing. She claims he threw the ball at his face.

Well how does she know there is video missing? I mean you can see in the video that all the kids are playing the same game. He wasn’t being bullied, he was playing too. Original story made it sound like he was in the backyard minding his own business when he had a fire lit soccer ball thrown at his face.

On Friday, Bridgeport police said an investigation found no evidence the boy was injured deliberately.

Authorities reached that conclusion after reviewing video showing four children, ages 6, 7, 8 and 11, playing together in the backyard of a residence on the day of the incident. The youngest children were seen playing with fire and gasoline, according to police.
This raises more questions than it answers. The mother said her teen daughter was watching the kids, but clearly, no one was watching the kids. A teen would know better than to let small children play with gasoline.

And who leaves gasoline around where children can get at it? Was this the landlords' carelessness? Where did the kids get matches?

I think the boy's parents need to move to a better rental. I don't know what they're waiting for. The mom was in charge at the time. This is neglect. And the teen sister had said, two of the other boys had been bullying or teasing the 6-year-old for months? It's time for the parents to move. Maybe that's why they've allowed the Go Fund Me to run on so long; they wanted money to be able to afford a better place? Let's hope they're thinking of their child/ren, not of themselves.

Why are you assuming the gas and matches belonged to the landlord and not them?
