Amelia DiStasio is charged with first degree intentional homicide.</h6>
<p>A mother is accused of killing her 4-year-old son, who was found in the bathtub of their home with significant burns. According to a criminal complaint Amelia Distasio, bound her autistic 4-year-old son with seven belts before setting him on fire<br />
DiStasio, 23, of Milwaukee, Wisconsin is charged with first degree intentional homicide after the Milwaukee Fire Department responded to reports of smoke on Sept. 28, and found her son Antonio DiStasio covered in burns.<br />
His hands were tied behind his back with seven belts, and his head was covered with a garbage bag, according to a criminal complaint reports <a href="http://www.cbs58.com/news/milwaukee-mother-charged-with-intentional-homicide-after-suffocating-4-year-old-setting-him-on-fire">WDJT</a>.<br />
An open bottle of canola oil was also found in the bathroom, and a pile of clothes were still smoldering when the fire department arrived.</p>

She researched methods before inflicting the horrible death</h6>
<div class="ra-module h">A pet guinea pig was also found drowned in its cage next to the bathtub.<br />
A witness said she saw Amelia DiStasio climb out the window and run off. She was taken into custody later that day and remains held with bond set at $400,000.<br />
One resident told police she heard the boy yelling, “Please mommy, stop! I won’t do it again!” the night before the brutal murder, according to the criminal complaint.<br />
A search of the suspect&#8217;s phone also revealed she searched “how do canabals die”, and “how to kill a canabal”, on google shortly before the homicide.<br />
She reportedly visited a message board for a horror survival game that suggested fighting cannibals with fire. Other posts mentioned that cannibals “like to bath in oil&#8221;, which the detective noted was significant given the bottle of canola oil recovered in the bathroom.</div>

<div class="ra-module h">An autopsy revealed seven belts were used to secure Antonio Detasio&#8217;s hands and arms to his sides, and a plastic bag had been placed over his head &#8212; pulled tight and knotted at the back of his head. The autopsy revealed &#8220;significant charring&#8221; to his skin, and thermal injuries &#8220;to the majority of his body.&#8221; His death was ruled a homicide.<br />
The witness who reported seeing Distasio jump from the windowsill of the apartment building on September 28, noted that she looked &#8220;frazzled,&#8221; according to the complaint.<br />
The boy’s grandfather Ralph DiStasio remembered Antonio as a bright, happy and autistic boy.<br />
“You’re all gonna be down on his mother. But she loved him. Took him everywhere with her. Tried to get him treatment. And she&#8217;s now under arrest. I don&#8217;t know what happened, only that I&#8217;ve lost both my grandson and a daughter,” he wrote in a Facebook post.</div>
