Just saw a clip of an interview with the dead kid’s dad. He says that it doesn’t matter if the kids were taunting the tiger or not, that there was a failure on the part of the zoo authorities.
Especially in light of the slingshot info, I disagree with him. Seems the tiger was not responding to taunts, but DEFENDING ITSELF!
I think the old man smells a huge lawsuit. I’d like to see him get his wish...and see his family sued for the value of the tiger, it’s pain and suffering, etc.

.

“They have not called me,” Sousa said. “Last time I talked to them is when they told me my son wasn’t with them, and the next day I found out my son was dead, and that makes me a little angry but there’s nothing I can do.”

The boys didn’t tell the father that the son was with them or that they were all going to the zoo. Perhaps to cover up a planned crime?

I would also like to see the police officers who killed the tiger fired pronto.

I did hear on Fox &FRiends this morning that one of the brothers attempted to get into a cafe, once the tiger was on the loose.

The people in the cafe were under lockdown because they thought up to 4 tigers were loose, and refused to open the door for him.
