Depends if it was deliberate or not.
I remember hearing about a man who was trimming his hedge in the back garden. Unkown to him, one of his sons was hiding in the hedge planning on jumping out and suprising his dad. You can imagine what happened.
Distraught he picked up his injured son, ran round the house to the car, and as he reversed off the drive, hit his other son who had just come home from playing with friends.
Should he have been punished for killing his sons?
Did Maddie's parents leave her and her siblings alone in order for them to be abducted, or did the thought of such a crime occuring not cross their minds?
