An 18-year-old Texas man is facing capital murder charges after police allege he fatally shot his 3-year-old stepson in the head when the child wouldn't stop jumping on his bed, PEOPLE confirms.
...
Investigators claim in court records that Wayman pointed a gun at Castro while ordering him off the bed he'd been jumping on. But the boy didn't listen, according to police.
...
Police were initially told that the child had accidentally shot himself. But court records indicate that several eyewitnesses to the shooting accused Wayman of purposely pointing the weapon at the child, and firing off on round.

Obviously it’s the gun’s fault.
This is the guy that is so stupid you feel in danger just standing near him.
Kid shoulda stopped jumpin’.
Good news for the gun control crowd. They love stuff like this.
Have they filed a lawsuit against S&W yet?

The prison population doesn’t take too kindly to cowards who shoot toddlers. Have fun, Wayman.
I buried my father in that area yesterday,the community is stone ashen face shocked .......... and pissed
I am very sorry for your loss.
If they put him in the general prison population, he won’t be with us long.
If we could see into souls, I don’t know what response would predominate: pity, contempt, or horror.
All little kids love jumping on the bed.
This probably wasn’t the first time he pointed his loaded gun at the boy for acting as all children do. I guess Mom didn’t care how her son was treated, so long as she could say on Facebook that she had a boyfriend.
Thank you
....and NO more monkeys jumping on the bed!
I think you'd just weep.
