[Meddle]

It's not murder unless he/she directed or caused the attack. Manslaughter or negligent homicide would suffice.

I'll bet if you ask the little girls parents what they think the owner should be charged with, they would agree a murder charge is appropriate. You don't let three pit bulls run free in a neighborhood full of kids and not expect there will be a problem. This poor child was murdered in a horrific way, little by little, and the owner of the dogs should be in prison for years to come.

It was a capital murder by negligence of animals, livestock or possession of goods.
