Revisiting Lack of Justice and Sense

Maybe there will be some justice, after all.

The mother of the boy Nicholas who was killed by the family pit bulls has admitted that one of the dogs had bitten him earlier in the day. Knowing the child was in danger from the animals, she put him in the basement and then left -- to go shopping.

Why didn't she take him with her? Had he been so badly bitten she didn't want anyone else to see him?

The San Francisco district attorney has been in contact with police about possibly charging the mother with child endangerment and keeping dangerous dogs.

This is one of the most depressing news stories I've ever heard.

This is the sort of story that always prompts my attorney brother to say, "People are dumbasses."

Thank you so very much for not mentioning this one around John. :( How can she live with herself?
