(Take the fucking tasers away from the fucking cops. Seriously.) 

"The Fulton County Medical Examiner's Office confirmed that the boy suffered sharp and blunt force trauma to the head and neck, consistent with a dog attack. Police confirmed that the boy's father was Tased at the scene (View: partial police report). Police said the father, overwhelmed with grief by the death of his son, was trying to enter the secured crime scene, the father's own home. Police said they had to protect the crime scene from being contaminated.

"This is one of those parts of the job we don't like doing. But we have to protect the crime scene until we know what has happened. We must look at all the possibilities. We can't contaminate the crime scene," McBride said.

"When you go hands-on, you never know what's going to happen. It's easy to poke an eye out or knock out a tooth accidentally," McBride said, justifying his officers' actions. "At the time, it seemed like the best way for our officers to handle it." (Sgt. Scott McBride)

A report from WSBTV yesterday said the name of the attacking pit bull is Kissy Face. On Wednesday, Kissy Face, after 8-years of living with the family, savagely attacked the family's 2-year old son, killing him. As police officers, emergency medical responders, animal control and news media teams swarmed the Wexford subdivision, the scene became "surreal" heightened by police Tasing and restraining a distraught father trying to reach his son's dead body.

04/25/13: Neighborhood Traumatized
The Atlanta Journal-Constitution (AJC) reports that the Fulton County Medical Examiner’s officeidentified the boy as Beau Rutledge. Over the course of Wednesday evening, news stories emerged detailing the deadly pit bull attack. WSB Radio reports that neighbors called the scene "surreal" and first responders simply said, "horrible." As seen in the AJC slideshow, a sheet was hung over the doorway of the family's home to shield the horrific dog mauling scene from view.

A detective told Channel 2's Craig Lucie that first responders told their colleagues not enter the home because it was "too gruesome." During Detective Melissa Parker's statements, concerning first responders, she said, "They were rattled when they came out from what they saw. Tears. Some in tears." Neighborhood children were crying and being comforted by adults as well. CBS Atlanta footage showed the child's father so upset that he had to be restrained by police.

The group also showed footage of two women who saw inside the family's home, "It was like a horror movie. It was like something I've never seen before," said one. "We're traumatized. The images are still in our minds." 11 Alive told the same story and added that neighborhood children watched as the medical examiner took the child's body away, watched as the mother was taken away in an ambulance and watched as animal control hauled away the family's pit bull.
