Toddler Who Shot Mother In Walmart To BE Charged As ADULT?

The 2-year-old boy who shot his own mother after removing a gun she had placed her handbag while shopping at an Idaho Walmart – will be tried as an adult. And if you believe that, we have some beautiful swamp land to sell you in Florida.

In reality, the story is nothing more than a hoax, posted on a satirical website, but that didn’t stop gobs of people from sharing it as if it were true news.

The article reads in part: Police and local investigators say that the 2-year-old toddler that fired a gun in an Idaho Walmart store, killing his mother, will be tried as an adult.

On December 30th, police say that a young mother, who was shopping with her children, was killed when her 2-year-old son reached into her purse, and discharged a small-caliber pistol that she had concealed inside. In what police originally considered a tragic accident, the woman died before paramedics could arrive. h/t theepochtimes
