Mum found guilty of manslaughter of four sons who died in Sutton house fire

A woman has been found guilty at the Old Bailey of the manslaughter of her four young sons who died in a fire after being left home alone in south west London. Deveca Rose, 30, had left her two sets of twins alone while a blaze ripped through her house in Sutton on the evening of December 16, 2021. The court heard that Rose had left her children alone to go to Sainsbury’s. Kyson, Bryson, Leyton and Logan were unable to escape the property and died under a bed, the trial heard. An Old Bailey jury deliberated for three hours and 22 minutes to find her guilty of four counts of manslaughter by a majority of 11 to one but not guilty of child cruelty. She was granted bail and will be sentenced on November 15.
