Should negligence be a crime? |
[Edit] |
Answer
depends totally on the situation. the mindset and actions of the accused should be judged by the totality of the circumstances. Ex. if a mother leaves a child to get her nails done...the child is but 4 years old and eats rat poison from the bottom cabinet....indeed, the mother was negligent and has committed a crime. if the same child wanders into the street while mom has been folding laundry....little different...unfortunate situation..yes..but different.
