On the morning of October 4, 2025, a quiet tragedy unfolded behind the closed doors of an unlicensed daycare — a place where parents believed their children were safe, supervised, and protected.
Instead, it became the scene of a nightmare no family should ever have to face.
Two-year-old Kaimir Jones, a bright, joyful toddler with a smile big enough to melt any heart, lost his life in a violent, entirely preventable dog attack. The adults responsible for his safety weren’t watching him. The facility he was left in should never have been operating. And the questions surrounding what happened during those final minutes remain unanswered — and unbearable.
This is the story of a little boy who deserved so much more.
A story of trust broken, warnings ignored, and a community now demanding justice.
It begins with a single, devastating truth:
Kaimir was left alone — and he never should have been.
A MORNING THAT SHOULD HAVE BEEN ORDINARY
The day began like any other. Parents rushed to work, children were dropped off for care, and life moved forward with the quiet rhythm of routine. For Kaimir’s family, there was no reason to suspect danger. The daycare had assured them everything was safe — that the environment was nurturing, that supervision was constant, and that their child would be cared for.
But behind that façade, something darker lurked.
The daycare was unlicensed.
Unregulated.
Uninspected.
Unprepared for emergencies.
And completely illegal.
Yet, like so many parents struggling to balance childcare logistics with demanding schedules, Kaimir’s family trusted the provider. They trusted the smiles, the reassurances, the promise that “everything will be fine.”
For a few hours, everything was.
Then something happened that should never have been possible.
THE MOMENT EVERYTHING CHANGED
At some point that morning, Kaimir was left unsupervised.
Alone.
With a large dog that had no business being near young children — especially not toddlers, especially not without a trained adult present, and especially not in a setting pretending to offer professional childcare.
What happened next unfolded in minutes, but the consequences will echo for a lifetime.
The attack was sudden.
Brutal.
Fatal.
By the time help arrived, it was already too late.
