The railing was on an elevated, gazebo like structure that was over the African painted dog enclosure and there were many signs posted asking people not to climb on the railing. According to witness reports, the little boy fell over the railing, hit a mesh shelf and landed in the open exhibit. Once he hit the ground, he was attacked by 11 dogs being housed there.>> http://www.examiner.com/article/toddler-killed-after-falling-into-african-painted-dog-area-at-pittsburgh-zoo I really think she should be charged. Regardless of whatever guilt she is feeling she still willfully broke a few laws which resulted in her son's death. She should be charged like anyone else.

I agree

And that's why anything that involves danger we need way higher railings, thick glasses to separate us from falling into something because theres always SOMEONE not-so-bright that'll hop on a rail or something to get a "better view" even when the sign says NOT TO. 

That must have been awful to watch..










Why they had to be African though?
