Timestamp: (10:19)

In the US, an average of 450 children are murdered by their parents each year, with mothers more likely to kill infants and fathers more likely to kill older children.

  • North Carolina man Wellington Dickens called 911 in October 2025.  He confessed to killing four of his children over the period of a few months.  He also told authorities that another child of his had previously passed and police are searching for the remains of that baby.
  • In November 2025, New Zealand man Dean Field allegedly killed his three young children August, Hugo and Goldie before setting their home on fire.  Dean perished along with the children.
  • Ohio man Ryan Eagon and his wife Raven had a tumultuous relationship.  Raven believed that Ryan was away for work and she enlisted the help of a previous partner, Dustin Willey, to help her move her two children and their belongings out of the home.  Ryan ambushed the family, killing Dustin and the two young boys, before taking his own life.
