1983: Ex-convict Charles Rothenberg raced like a coward from a burning motel room in Buena Park in March 1983. He left behind his 6-year-old son David. Rothenberg was later convicted in Orange County Superior Court of giving his son a sleeping pill, then dousing the room with kerosene and igniting it with a match…before he took off to save his own skin.

David survived, but he suffered permanent disfiguring with burns over 90 per cent of his body. One of the many shocking aspects to the case was the motive. Rothenberg was locked in a bitter custody dispute with his ex-wife in New York when he took his son with a promise of visiting Orange County amusement parks. Instead, he attempted to murder the boy so his ex-wife couldn’t have him.

The community was stunned again when Rothenberg was sentenced to only 13 years in prison – the maximum allowed at the time. He served less than seven before he was paroled.
But Rothenberg is now back in prison. He was sentenced by a judge in Northern California in 2007 to 25-years in life as a third-striker for being a felon in possession of a gun.

David said he would never forgive his father and does not have a relationship with him

Wow that's real sad, who could blame him for not wanting a relationship wih his father anyway. I like the Radiohead poster in the background

Worst picture of the bunch

The picture of the young guy in the blue shirt is special effects makeup. (1) The burns have that "fresh" look, they should be scars at that point. (2) If the burns were that bad all down his chest he would not in any way have any semblance of a nipple or the ability to put a ring there.

I believe it's a before and after picture. The weird nose could be a pedicle tube graft.

The tube pedicle was developed simultaneously yet independently by Sir Harold Gillies at the Queen’s Hospital Sidcup and ophthalmic surgeon Vladimir Petrovich Filatov in Odessa, Russia between 1916 and 1917. A tube pedicle is a flap of skin sewn down its long edges, with one end left attached to the site of origin, the other is attached to the site to be grafted.

The procedure begins with the lifting of a long, large flap of skin by making a roughly ‘U’ shaped incision. The rounded end of the flap is cut to shape to fit the area to be repaired. The long edges of the skin flap are stitched together to form a tube to prevent drying out and infection of the raw side of the skin flap. The shaped end of the tube is then attached to the site to be repaired whilst the other end of the tube remains attached to its site of origin. After a number of weeks, the tube is cut near the area to be repaired leaving enough skin on the graft site to shape and model. The remainder of the tube can once again be opened and returned to its original position. On occasion, multiple tubes might be taken to rebuild substantial parts of the face or body.
Tissue must be taken from distant parts of the body in stages. For example a tube might be taken from the stomach area and attached to the wrist. After a number of weeks the tube would be disconnected from the stomach, the arm raised and the loose end of the tube attached to the site on the face to be repaired. Once again after a number of weeks the tube is disconnected from the wrist and this loose end of the tube is attached to another part of the face. Only then can the tube be opened and modelled to the face.
