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.
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.
