50's Baby Mama -- Someone Broke Into the Crib

The lawyer for 50 Cent's baby mama, Shaniqua Tompkins, tells TMZ that she heard "someone" come into the house this morning at 4 AM, shortly before the fire broke out around an hour later.

Paul Catsandonis, Shaniqua's lawyer, tells us that his client is "traumatized" by the fire and that the kids are similarly in total shock. Six people, including Tompkins and their 10-year-old son Marquise, were in the house. They all were transported to the hospital and treated for smoke inhalation.

2. If you hear someone break in, do you stick around or are you just waiting for an insurance claim to pay the rent.

9. All Lies!! Why would you still stay in a house without calling the cops if you HEAR SOMEONE BREAKING IN! Neither her or her friends in the house called the fire dept or police when the firse started, it was a passerby that called the fire dept etc. She should go to jail for life for putting her son in harms way!!

10. is there anybody actually editing these entries?.. the grammer here is appalling. "The lawyers tells tmz"..and "a hour later"..
it should be " the lawyer told Tmz",, and "an hour later."

whoever wrote that needs to go back to school.

12. See this is the BS. NOW she claims someone broke in, well where is the 911 the cops? Girlie is trying to cover her tracks. I'll bet she winds up getting arrested for this.

13. either she got someone to start a fire so 50 CENT wouldn't have his house and arson would be found out as the cause and he wouldn't collect insurance $ ( but I find that questionable because why would he care abt the $ or even the house at the end of the day and why would she put herself in potentioal harms way with her son and other people?)....OR 50 cent triggered the arson attempt and he is too stupid ( just like her ) to realize everone would expect arson anyways...BOTTOMLINE...if either of them r traced back to being the culprits I hope they r proved in court and can spend time in jail seeing what selfish fricken stupid people they both obviously r on either side anyways!!!!!!!!!!!!...I feel only sorry for the son !!!!!!!!!!!
