2-year-old twin boys die in Brandon house fire
No one knew Rishaw and Richie Edwards were asleep inside.

Not long after midnight, a fire started at 101 Foxwood Drive. Flames shot through the roof and smoke filled the house.
Linda Morgan, 52, and fiance Elmer Morales, 60, were asleep but woke up and escaped. They stood outside as firefighters arrived. Neighbors gathered. Everyone seemed safe.
What no one there knew: Inside a bedroom were 2-year-old twin boys.
Firefighters making routine room searches as they fought the flames discovered the bodies.
Rishaw and Richie Edwards, Morgan's grandnephews, had been asleep in a bed. They were rushed to hospitals but pronounced dead about 1:30 a.m. The Hillsborough County Medical Examiner's Office determined they died from smoke inhalation.
Their mother, Jaimey Sims, 19, had arrived with the sleeping boys around 10:30 p.m. Wednesday. Morgan and Morales were already in bed.
While there, she got a call from a friend and decided to go out to a club on Busch Boulevard, according to a medical examiner's report.
She placed the sleeping children in a back bedroom, and left around 11:45 p.m. She didn't tell her aunt.
Not quite an hour later, Morgan had to call her niece with the news.
Neighbors Maxine and Jerry Cockerill saw Sims arrive. 'As soon as she got here, she said, 'Where are they?'' Maxine said. 'I think she was in shock.' The state Fire Marshal's Office was investigating, 'but there's no indication of foul play,' said Anna Alexopoulos, a spokeswoman for the agency.
Officials would not describe possible causes, but the medical examiner's report notes Sims took a shower and hung a damp towel over a lamp to dry. The Hillsborough County Sheriff 's Office is also investigating the deaths. No charges were announced. Spokeswoman Debbie Carter characterized the case as 'a tragic accident.' James Sims, Jaimey's father, said she was so distraught she could not talk: 'She's just broken, broken in pieces. Her life was them. I really am scared for her.' • • • Jaimey Sims, who attended Hillsborough High School but dropped out after getting pregnant, works as a cashier at the Tampa Yacht and Country Club, her father said.
That's where both her father and Morgan work. It's also where she met Richard Edwards Jr., a server at the club who is the father of the twins.
Edwards said he and Sims dated for about a year. They are no longer together, but worked out an agreement that most recently allowed him to see the children three times a week. Sims had recently started taking classes to earn her GED so she could study to become a nurse, her father said. She had also landed a second job at a 7-Eleven.
Because she couldn't afford day care, she routinely shuttled the children between her aunt's home in Brandon and her mother's home in Tampa, her father said.
He said it was not unusual for her to stay at her aunt's house.
Edwards, who lives with his father in Tampa, said he woke to a call on his cell phone at 2:30 a.m. Thursday. He couldn't get to the phone in time, but heard his father, who got the second call. 'He was saying, 'No! No! No!' ' Edwards said he's in the dark over what happened, but is angry the children were left. 'What'd she have to do that was so important that she left the kids there?' asked Edwards, who was ordered last year to pay child support.
