In an unfortunate incident (reported by allaboutthegames) taking place in Miami, a man named Emanuel Lawerence, 30, slept on his on baby daughter accidentally and suffocated her to death. This happened when Emanuel was playing his Xbox 360 all night, felt tired and felt asleep. The police have arrested him on grounds of irresponsibility and aggravated manslaughter of a child. He is being held on a $75,000 bail.
The culprit.
The incident took place when Emanuel Lawerence consumed marijuana with a friend in the afternoon. After that he started playing video games on his Xbox 360 till 6 am in the morning. Feeling tired he passed out. Thereafter Emanuel woke up to feed his baby daughter, only to fall asleep again, but unfortunately this time he felt asleep over his daughter. After sleeping for seven odd hours he woke up to see that he had suffocated his daughter to death. Getting scared of the incident he positioned the body of his baby in a different place so that no one would question him on how this incident happened.
What is responsible for this? Video games or drugs?
People should play video games, but not to an extent where they forget what is going around them. I believe the man consuming drugs also played a big role in making him unconscious and hence giving rise to the most unfortunate incident taking place in recent video games history.

I highly doubt the weed caused him to suffocate the child. For most gamers playing throughout the entire night isn’t exactly an odd occurrence. Sure you’ll feel tired afterward but it doesn’t cause extreme fatigue to the point you would fall asleep on top of your child. It’s much more likely he fell asleep with her and during his slumber he rolled onto her, covering her face or pressing it against the bed to suffocate her. Most of us toss and turn in our sleep this is just an unfortunate circumstance for the father
