Again with this story Denby? This kid's albatross killing spree is sad and screwed up and he should be punished for it, but I cant take yours or Civil Beat's coverage of animal/human interactions seriously when there has been no coverage of the mauling death of Crisencio Aliado by the containerland dogs in Kalihi. The owners have apparently faced no consequences for Mr. Aliado's killing and the dogs, which had previously attacked other people, are still in their owner's custody. The lack of consequences for Mr. Aliado's killing have pretty alarming implications. Are owners simply not legally responsible for the actions of their dogs? Why does the Hawaiian humane society decide what happens to these dogs? Why havent the dog owners been charged with ANYTHING?? I wonder how you and CB would have handled this albatross story if the kid had let his dog kill the birds instead of doing the deed himself? Or if instead of birds he was killing homeless people? Would there be any coverage at all?
