*If what happened to Ebone Scurry‘s son happened to your child you would be devastated just like her. Scurry’s 8-year-old son Donald was burned from boiling water being poured over him by a 9-year-old. The incident happened in Houston, TX.
Think about it. Young Donald will have to bear the scars for the rest of his life because of what another child did to him and there’s nothing, from a legal standpoint, that can be done about it, due to Texas laws.
“It just doesn’t sit right with me that my baby, 8 years old, has to suffer,” Ebone Scurry said.
Donald, whose family calls him Junior, was playing with his 9-year-old neighbor when an argument over a toy walkie-talkie happened. Junior told his mother the 9-year-old went inside the home, got a cup of boiling water, and came back out.
“She comes and pours boiling hot water down the side of his face,” Scurry said.

Again, there is NO legal recourse. The Harris County DA’s office stated that under Texas State law, a child under 10 cannot face legal repercussions, and they are not yet recognized as a juvenile, and there are no exceptions.
And angry and disappointed Ebone Scurry doesn’t agree with that.
“Now, if it was by accident, I would be more understanding, but this was like premeditated,” Scurry said.
