    Parents of Child killed by Burm to be charged with manslaughter/third-degree murder

    I believe there is a special word for these kinds of people. To keep it clean, we will refer to them as idiots. Investigative reports into the Python that killed the Florida toddler showed that the snake had not been fed a single meal for a month. The 8-foot-6-inch python weighed less than 13 pounds, "at least half what healthy pythons that size should weigh" as stated by Andrew Wyatt of USARK. So obviously it had been underfed for a lot longer than a month. The mother of the child's mother had said that she had offered to buy rats for the snake, get sealed containers, and keep the snakes herself but had been turned down. The python was being kept in a 150 gallon tank with a quilt as a lid and had escaped 10 times since it was last fed. The animal, which was stabbed when found coiled around the girl, has recovered and is being held by the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission. Shame they can't legally shoot these people.
