Cameron Todd Willingham
Cameron Todd Willingham (January 9, 1968 – February 17, 2004) was an American man who was convicted of murdering his three young children by arson at the family home in Corsicana, Texas, on December 23, 1991. He was executed in 2004.
Willingham's case and the investigative techniques were criticized by a 2004 ''Chicago Tribune'' article. The case was discussed again in a 2009 investigative report in ''The New Yorker''.〔 This coverage suggested that the arson evidence was unconvincing. The 2011 documentary, ''Incendiary: The Willingham Case'', also explored the case. According to an August 2009 investigative report by an expert hired by the Texas Forensic Science Commission, the original claims of arson were doubtful.〔 The Corsicana Fire Department disputes the findings, stating that the report overlooked several key points in the record.〔Jacobs, Janet (October 4, 2009), ("City report on arson probe" ), ''Corsicana Daily Sun''〕
The case has been further complicated by allegations that Texas Governor Rick Perry impeded the investigation by replacing three of the nine commission members in an attempt to change the commission's findings; Perry denies the allegations.
==Fire==
On December 23, 1991, a fire destroyed the Willingham family home in Corsicana, Texas. Killed in the fire were Willingham's three daughters: two-year-old Amber Louise Kuykendall and one-year-old twins Karmon Diane Willingham and Kameron Marie Willingham. Willingham himself escaped the home with only minor burns. Stacy Kuykendall, Willingham's then-wife and the mother of his three daughters, was not home at the time of the fire, as she was out shopping. Prosecutors charged that Willingham set the fire and killed the children in an attempt to cover up abuse of the girls.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.clarkprosecutor.org/html/death/US/willingham899.htm )〕 However, there was no evidence of child abuse, and Kuykendall told prosecutors that he had never abused the children. "Our kids were spoiled rotten", she said, insisting he would never harm their children.〔
