This story is so tragic, yet I understand his thinking.

So obviously you wouldn't step in front of a truck for a child. In such instance the rescuer is dead but the child is alive. In this instance the rescuer is worried about defending himself in a court of law while the child is dead. All he had to do was pick her up and stand on the street.

Maybe I'm too stupid and old. Maybe I wouldn't had done it if I were younger, I don't know. But the girl is dead because he didn't have the sense to pick her up and start yelling at the traffic for help?

I am sure if he thought the girl would have died, he'd have done something.

And what about the negligent and inattentive "care givers" who permitted the child to wander off the property, creating this horrendous problem in the first place?
