The Knoxville News Sentinel has retracted the story.

http://www.knoxnews.com/story/news/local/2016/12/14/story-santa-claus-dying-child-cant-verified/95423868/

HMMMM do a little more digging… tarpon chasers articles says “It went viral earlier this week when it was retold by virtually every major news outlet. The only problem? It’s almost certainly fake.”

What is almost certainly??!

Digg a little deeper and you find that the news paper retracted the article because the Santa… Schmitt-Matzen was then contacted and asked about the incident. At the time of that initial interview, he said he had promised to protect the identities of the child’s family and the nurse who summoned him to the hospital bedside.

Digg a little deeper and you find Schmitt did not want the article posted and someone else gave the story to the newspaper.

If not true, it sure was a good story. No matter at least if it is fake it was not the Santa that got it started.

Hmmmm

If you’re going to dig a little deeper, you wouldn’t just read from the link I posted. You would dig a little deeper. For me I am happy the story is fake because that means a little kid didn’t actually die.
