I get it, and that makes sense as well, but I mean, if someone else killed her kid, she'd be the aggrieved party pressing charges. Presumably her husband wouldnt want to press charges as hed lose his kid and his wife although he may want her gone after a boneheaded move like that anyways.
I guess the way I see it in my head is that the parties that would be interested in seeing justice served are the parties that effectively 'injured' themselves so it seems circuitous to punish them.
At the same time, if there are no consequences then kids are going to be 'slipping' into dog cages at an alarming rate.
