Red Lake hosts vigils, ceremonies for two young boys killed in house fire

The Red Lake community is grieving two young boys who died in a house fire there last week, while their mother stands charged with the abuse and neglect of their younger brother.

Remi and Tristan Stately, ages 6 and 5, died following the house fire March 15, the day their youngest brother Ethan, 3, was the subject of a statewide Amber Alert. Their mother, Jennifer Stately, 35, has been charged with abuse, neglect and torture in Todd County after deputies arrested her shortly after the alert was issued and found the toddler covered in wounds.

Jennifer Stately remains in custody in Todd County jail.

The FBI is leading the investigation into the house fire and declined repeated requests to provide any additional information. Officials would not say if the fatal house fire and Amber Alert are connected.
