I am in a state of deep emotion,
you can imagine, I am confused.
I am bewildered and shocked.
Yet I must pull myself together.
Though right now all I can say is that
I share in this broken-hearted mother's misery
in a mother's never-ending mourning and sorrow
is the grief of losing the one who is dearest to our hearts.
This tragic event weighs us all down with sadness.
I don't think there's anyone who would disagree with me.
And now the hardest thing is
with our teeth clenched, to get our minds over the heartbreak,
to defy our tears when our voices fail us.
For, and I would like to call your attention to this:
Before the police start investigating, nothing can be more important for us
than to reconstruct
the shocking events,
which led to the terrible death of an innocent child.
You'd better expect the inspectors from town
to come and make us responsible for this terrible event.
Yes, my friends, they're going to ask us.
