Cameron Todd Willingham's Lighter

Origin
Cameron Todd Willingham (1968 – 2004) was an American man who was convicted of murdering his three young children by arson. On December 23rd, 1991, a fire destroyed the Willingham family home, killing three daughters. Willingham himself managed to escape with only minor burns. Stacy Kuykendall, Willingham's then wife and mother of the children was out shopping for Christmas presents. Prosecutors at first charged Willingham with murder in an attempt to cover up child abuse. However, there was no evidence of child abuse and Kuykendall told prosecutors that Willingham would never harm his children. However signs at the house showed proof that the fire was started 'by a human's hand' as there were accelerant puddles all over the house to suggest gasoline or lighter fluid was used. This adamant defense stayed with him all the way to his execution in 2004. The case was examined after the fact with both sides stating that Willingham was both guilty and innocent. In late 2009 Kuykendall came forward stating that Willingham confessed on the eve of his execution that he had indeed set the fire that killed his daughters.
