According to Jason R. Matteau’s MySpace page, his main
interest is “shooting rifle and pistol” and his greatest fear in life is “losing
his son.” It’s impossible to imagine the hell he must be going through, now
that his greatest fear has come to pass as a direct result of his interest in
guns.
While at home with both of his parents and his baby sister, Matteau’s
two-year-old son, Wyatt, founded a loaded handgun. He picked it up and the gun went
off, shooting a bullet through Wyatt’s head.
Detectives have ruled the death accidental, which seems
clear judging even from a quick peak at the parents’ MySpace pages, both of
which are covered in photos of their two children and messages such as “I have
the best children in the world.” However, the investigation continues into
possible wrongdoing on the part of the Matteaus, since Connecticut state law prohibits storing
loaded handguns in a place where anyone under 16 might be able to find them.
