I really feel like they are going through enough.Maybe the snake should of been outside.We can say maybe ourself all day. But what if it had gotten out an killed someone else child, than charges yes,but not with there chld.They got to live with that for the rest of their life,an to me that is a harder time to do.To the family may GOD be with you an your family.Im sorry for your lost.

I was asked at the beginnig of this thread to tell where I had heard that the snake was not feed and that was what it was looking for:
http://www.orlandosentinel.com/news/local/breakingnews/orl-bk-killer-python-owner-speaks-073109,0,3498768.story
Snake experts such as Andrew Wyatt, president of the United States Association of Reptile Keepers, question Darnell’s story, particularly the part about the snake reaching sexual maturity.

A Burmese that old weighing 12.3 pounds had to be “emaciated,” he said.

“That animal was not sexually mature. That animal was undernourished,” Wyatt said

Thus proving the mother and the boyfriend were stupid, criminal and should be charged not only in the childs death but the abuse of the snake.

Other than the obvious stupidity displayed by people pretending to be responsible parents, let’s look at precedent:

If a bartender serves too much alcohol to a patron and said patron is involved in a fatal accident, the bartender, by law, is culpable.

By the same token, these “make-believe” parents made available, in proximity to a defenseless child, an animal of disastrously dangerous potential. This was tantamount to placing a stick of dynamite in a kid’s right hand, a match in the kid’s left hand, and saying “be careful”.

These parents should be held criminaly responsible to the fullest extent.
