Daughter charged after 78-year-old father with dementia killed in pit bull attack

A Vermont woman was charged with voluntary manslaughter and reckless endangerment after her pit bull killed her 78-year-old father, who had dementia. The dog, which had a history of attacking two other people, mauled the victim at his daughter’s home, leading to its euthanasia. The case is being treated as a rare criminal matter due to the dog’s prior violent behavior and the owner’s alleged negligence.
