>> I found it refreshing that a court yesterday found that the death of a 10 year old from a piece of falling barrier on which he had been swinging in a shop was declared accidental.
Did you also notice that there had been two previous incidents in other stores and the manager had been officially asked to check the stability and safety of the arrangement at this store. He confirmed that he'd checked it and it was safe. He later admitted that he had lied and never checked it.
It was unsafe. A child died. Admittedly a child who had been swinging from it when he shouldn't have been. The mother (in charge of the child) and the manager (lied about the safety of the installation) should have been prosecuted.
I understand that criminal prosecution is on its way.
Good.
