I get why God might not stop a 4-year-old from getting raped if free will for the rapist is so damn unimaginably important. Sure, apparently it's okay to threaten him with hell after he dies, but the occasional mild electrical shock in this life would be just too much freakin' much interference. But why would God allow a 4-year old die a slow and agonizing death from an accident of nature like an earthquake or a parasitic infection? Where does the almighty free will figure in there? What free will imperative is served by letting us get hit with stuff we could not possibly foresee or defend against? What about natural evil?
