hope the owner of the gun is charged with negligence/homicide/whatever

Why would you leave a loaded gun on the couch with a 2yr old around? Very sad, and preventable.

I pray for the family for their loss. Tragic results from careless actions. I saw the HPD news conference soon after it happened and he wouldn't or couldn't explain how the child got the weapon. As sad as the situation is I hope they get to the bottom of it and appropriate charges are forthcoming.

Horrible for the child's family! I'm sure there will be charges against the owner of the gun. But, having to live with this tragedy is going to be difficult.
