That the parents of the 6 children who died when their home was burned down are not allowed to attend the funeral?

The parents are in custody charged with the murders of the children but surely they are innocent until proved guilty.

A tough one: I imagine it's a matter of security and public order.

I don't understand this case at all, though I haven't read a lot about it here. I could understand manslaughter if they had deliberately burnt the house down for insurance purposes or in a drunken state or some drug-induced high. But murder is supposed to have intent, and I can't think how these parents would have the deliberate intent to kill six of their children. I can't make sense of that.

Me either,Caro ...it seems that the father had been in conflict with the local council because he wanted a bigger house for himself ,his wife, his mistress and eight (he has eighteen) of his children..... knowing that makes me wonder if this was a madcap scheme that went horrendously wrong...
