Just a follow up, to the latest DBRF fatal pit mauling in the USA, where the child was killed after being dropped off at the baby sitters house.
I jumped to the conclusion that this was the 3rd child killed by a baby sitters pit bull in less than a week (3 in 6 days).

“How do you know who owned the dog when the linked article says the owner is yet to be identified?”
“How do you know that the identification is positive and accurate?”
“There’s no word yet on the owner of the dog.”
“And you know these are 100% positive & accurate identifications because…?”
Authorities have now released the identity of the baby sitter, and confirmed it happened in her house.
We all knew the facts would later show - it was the baby sitters pit bull, they have now named the baby sitter (Mary Lane).
Here is her Facebook page:

It clearly shows her pit bull in the photos, and note that Mary Lane belongs to several Pro Pit Bull groups:
Pit Bull Parolees (TV Show)
Pit Bull Boss (TV Show)
Oregon Pit Bull Fan club

Another Nutter who believed it was all in how you raised a pit bull, nurture not nature, ban the deed not the breed, nanny dog, all dogs bite, and 20 other sorts of pit bullshit.
Is anyone on SDMB truly surprised?
Anyone?
