Parents Charged With Murder in Liberty County RV Fire That Killed Two Children
Two parents have been charged with murder following an August RV fire in Liberty County that claimed the lives of their two young children.
According to the Liberty County Fire Marshal's Office, Matthew Chambers and Meaghan Herrod each face two counts of murder in connection with the August 11th fire near Cleveland. The charges followed an investigation that included evidence collected at the scene and interviews.
The Texas Department of Family and Protective Services also confirmed to ABC13 that both parents had previous involvement with Child Protective Services. The agency has not released further details.
The parents face criminal charges, but neither has been convicted in connection with the fire.

Two Baytown Residents Arrested
in Newton County UTV Theft Investigation
Two Baytown residents were arrested following an undercover investigation into the theft of two Polaris Ranger utility vehicles in Newton County.
According to Newton County Sheriff Colton Havard, the investigation began October 5th after two UTVs were reported stolen. One was later recovered, while investigators learned that someone was allegedly attempting to sell the second vehicle through a fake Facebook account.
Undercover officers arranged to purchase the stolen UTV and were led to its location in a wooded area. The suspects were subsequently stopped and arrested.
Kerison Zenas Durst and Leslie Hidalgo, both of Baytown, were arrested on charges of theft and engaging in organized criminal activity, according to the Sheriff's Office.
The investigation remains ongoing, and authorities say additional charges are possible.
All suspects are presumed innocent unless proven guilty in court.
