11-Year-Old Shoots 8-Year-Old to Death Over Puppy
This is so fucking sad and maddening.
A little girl in White Pine, Tennessee and her friend were outside playing on Saturday. A neighbor boy showed the girls his puppy through his bedroom window and then asked 8-year-old McKayla Dyer to show him her puppy. McKayla giggled and said 'no'.

^ McKayla then turned to say something to her friend. That's when the 11-year-old neighbor boy shot her to death through his bedroom window with his dad's shotgun.
The 11-year-old has been charged with first degree murder. He has not been named publicly and his court appearance today was closed because he's a minor.
I sure as hell hope that the 11-year-old's dad is charged with neglect and/or endangerment. The 11-year-old should never have had unsupervised access to a loaded gun, or an unlocked gun and ammo.
Because of another irresponsible gun-owning parent, another set of parents has lost their child forever.
RIP McKayla Dyer.
