Prosecutors alleged that she went shopping at
Walmart while leaving her daycare children
home alone, when a fire broke out killing four
young children. Tata was seen on the security
cameras shopping at Walmart. It is believed
that the fire started after Tata left a frying pan
with oil on a stove while she went out to run
errands.
Two days after the incident, Tata fled to
Nigeria. She was later arrested and extradited
to the United States after a joint effort of the
U.S. Marshals and Interpol.
The fire killed Shomari Dickerson, Kendyll
Stradford, Elias Castillo and Elizabeth Kajoh,
all less than three years old. Three other
children in her care were left in critical
condition and they were taken to the Shriner’s
burn hospital.
Tracy Storms, who lost her grandson Shomari
in the fire, told reporters: "Sorry, there is no
forgiveness for anyone who makes an income
watching children and has an audacity to
leave them alone even for a second. I don’t
understand how this woman can look herself
in the mirror knowing that she destroyed
seven children
