Throats Slit Before Staten Island Fire, Police Say
Whuh da bloodclott is dis ya uh gwine on in de newspaper dem? Chuh...
It looks like Ms. Leisa Jones's oldest child, C. J., whom his mom recently dubbed the man of the house, decided to slit the throats of his and his brother and sister before setting their Staten Island, NY home on fire, killing his mom, his siblings, and himself. The last child, a 2 year old son of Ms. Jones, died without his throat being cut.

"C. J.’s body was close by, slumped over a bed in a back bedroom. A straight razor was under his arm..."
That's it! I give up. The devil is one way too crafty bastid to get into the minds of children like that to cause this much harm, pain, and suffering.

...and what's up with y'all sistas these days and all of these in-da-drug-game/out-da-drug-game boyfriends that could've possibly perhaps maybe sorta kinda may have had a beef here or there but details are sketchy at the moment something to do with such a heinous act. Not saying she had one but I'm getting sick and tired of hearing about these women who will have a "man" that "beats it up" on the regular and that's all he brings to the table, but will still be out there running around in a throwback jersey, baggy jeans, and dreads at dayum near 50 years old. Ladies y'all can do better... Just sayin.
What could possibly hae been going through this child's mind? Could he have been mentally ill, psychotic for sure. Is it exposure to gratuitus violence? We'll never know.
Such beautiful young lives gone. A mom who worked so hard for her family murdered by one she sacraficed and struggled for. And he's just a child. How can this ever be explained.

Still SMDH at this one...
You are so correct about Satan. He is slick, but his greatest weapon is SUGGESTION. He whispers it over and over in your ear until you give in. This is why in Ephesians 6:11-20, it talks of putting on ALL the armor of God in order to withstand the attacks of Satan. The battle is in the mind. We can't battle him in the flesh and go kick is filthy ass. Oh that I could! We have to battle him in the spirit realm and along with God, beat the ******* back to the gates of Hell. What is the armor of God...HIS WORD. Speaking the word of God, knowing the word of God, being able to see the attacks when they come and stop them cold by SPEAKING God's word...to the attack directly...stops Satan in his tracks. In order to speak Gods word, you must know Gods word. In order to know His word...you must read and hear his word, repeatedly until it is written on your heart. For what is in your heart...you will speak.
This is so tragic and horrific and trust me, we will hear more of this before Jesus returns. My heart breaks for this family. The loss is so great, so devastating. We must lean on and trust in God and know that we are victorious in the end.
