Snip:
FOX 5 obtained audio from the first responders on the scene.
“Rescue … (unintelligible) ... three victims removed second floor … (unintelligible) … I'll need medic units,” a first responder said.
“Also, if you would advise the chief, the room (unintelligible) is a crime scene.”
Police sources tell FOX 5 the fire started in a room on the second floor where 10-year-old Phillip Savopoulos was alone and away from his parents and their housekeeper.
“The child can become almost a bargaining chip, which is a terrible way to think about it,” said Jay Singh, a forensic researcher and president and CEO of the Global Institute of Forensic Research. “But in a situation like this, certainly to be able to get information or resources -- it could be financial or non-financial -- from the adults in the family, then it's something where the child could be used almost as leverage.”
Figueroa's step daughter told FOX 5's Paul Wagner that Figueroa's husband came to the Savopoulos' home on the morning of the fire looking for his wife because she had never made it home. No one answered the door. He left and then received a phone call from Savvas Savopoulos saying his wife, Amy, and Veralicia Figueroa had gone to the hospital.
