4 charged in death of 5-year-old boy ‘incinerated’ in hyperbaric chamber explosion

Four individuals have been arrested in connection with the hyperbaric chamber explosion that resulted in the death of 5-year-old Thomas Cooper in Troy, Michigan, on January 31, 2025.
Tammi Peterson, the owner and CEO of the Oxford Center, faces charges of second-degree murder and manslaughter related to the incident.
The explosion occurred when Thomas was receiving treatment along with his mother, who was also injured in the incident.
Concerns have been raised about safety protocols at the facility due to an insufficient number of staff present that day, with only one technician for three patients.
