Mother on Trial for her dogs - GOOD!

Here are some of the interesting facts that are coming about in regards to the situation where a young child was killed by his parents pit bulls when left at home alone. The dogs had an aggressive history, uncaring caregivers and were in season and breeding. This was a situation where no-one would win regardless of a dog's breed. Ignorance and carelessness, greed and just plain worthlessness. May she be found guilty in the death of her child.

Prosecutor Linda Moore did get Faibish to recount an incident some 20 years ago, when he sicked his pit bull on a another dog.Steven Faibish admitted, "I told my dog to get that dog ... Screw this guy and I told him get him, yeah ... Let's put it this way ... that dog didn't want to play any more."

It sounds like both of the Faibish boys had been bit by the dogs during dogs mating. Also Nicholas was not capable of following directions due to language delay that had been present since at least 1st grade.
