Something is very fishy with this story. Other than by lightning, which should have left evidence of charring, how can someone get electrocuted if the RV is not electrically connected? And, if the RV was not energized, why did the mom say that the power company had “cleared her electrical”? I look forward to hearing what you find out Mike.
One thing I have learned about news reports after growing up in Washington DC and seeing firsthand many things that later made the news. They ALWAYS get it wrong. Maybe not with any agenda and just lazy. Maybe just to make a better story or lately maybe because it fits the narrative. But they always get it wrong. Unplugged????? Maybe it was unplugged when the cops got there but??????
"An investigation revealed the camper was unplugged and had no signs of charring, police said.
According to Toledo Edison, a FirstEnergy Corp. utility company called to investigate, the camper was not energized, police said."
As Doug said, there is obviously more to this story.
Also, WRT Randy's post -- I grew up outside D.C., and worked for Metro as an ATC tech for 27+ years. My coworkers and I were frequently amazed at how inaccurate the stories in the Post (and elsewhere) were. Not little details, but major factual errors.

I have a few theories which are only speculations at this point. But I’ll dig a little deeper as to what might have happened.
