I think that it's sad that a young man lost his life. I think it is also sad that the alleged Authorities in Tenn are in a sense blaming the other man for the formers death. Four counts PER snake???? and if he has been illegally selling for five years how come no arrest ?
These days if something bad happens even if it was really just an accident, someone must go to Jail. The man who died was an adult the other man did not force him to hold the snake. What happened to being responsible for your own actions.
