My friend's Dog Just killed an infant! **Updated**

Below is a terribly sad story, may bum you out!
Soooo fucked up.....
OK, so last night I was visiting a friend's house as there was a small gathering. The house is rented by four college guys officially (although any number of people are visiting/partying/sleeping over at any given time). Now, my buddy Fred is one of the official renters of this house and he has a dog that he keeps chained up in the backyard.
So, last night as I'm there chatting, Fred tells me that his buddy Kreg is going to stop by. This is exciting to Fred because: 1) he hasn't seen Kreg forever 2) Kreg travels around the country in a van and always has a lot of cool stories to tell 3) Kreg recently had a baby with his long time lover, Jill.
So anyway, Kreg, Jill, and their infant (Guy) show up and a full fledged party is launched (this is because Kreg is also a dealer and has many magical substances with him).
Apparently (I was talking to someone else when this happened) Kreg and Jill took some acid. I guess no one thought there would be any problem with two parents tripping and having no one sober to watch the babe. What fuck-ups! So, about two hours later, I hear a terrible scream from the back yard. I made my way out there and the first thing I saw was Fred chasing after his dog which had blood all over it's face. I look over and see Jill and Kreg kneeling over something on the ground.
Now, at this point I've smoked a lot of very good cannabis, so I am soaring a bit and am not entirely sure what's going on. At first, I thought the dog had bit either Kreg or Jill because they were tripping and messing around with it. But then I get closer and realize that the baby had been bitten. Jill is totally freaking out and in tears and kreg hands me his cell phone to call 911 (because he's tripping so hard).
So, I tell 911 that an infant was bitten. They ask me if the dog was a stray, I say no and they start drilling me for all this info. I tell her I know very little and she asks me where the parents are. I don't know what to do at this point and so I ask Jill if she is cool enough to talk. At this point she screams, "Help my baby! My baby's hurt! Oh my god!" Now, at this point she moves back from the baby a bit and I'm able to get a better idea of what happened:
Guy's neck had a gash the size of a silver-dollar in it, right in the middle. I remember thinking, "Shit, the dog bit out the baby's jugular and killed it." (I had no idea if the baby was dead or not as Jill wouldn't let anybody near Guy. She was also holding cloth from her dress against Guy's neck).
So I remained on the phone with the operator as Jill and Kreg were just uncontrollable. Kreg decided that he had to kill the dog and Fred while Fred was trying to talk some sense into him. Many people in the house had no idea anything had happened and were still partying. So I ran inside and told them the authorities were coming because of an accident in the backyard and told them to hide their shit. I also told them to stay out of the backyard, as there was enough going on back there.
At this point I remember hoping very much that the baby would be OK, although the wound looked substantial. I also remember being sooo pissed off at Kreg and Jill for being such terrible parents. Pretty soon the ambulance showed up with the police and the cops cleared everyone off the premises except for myself, Fred, Jill, Kreg, and the other roommates. Jill got into the ambulance with Guy and the police took a report from Fred, Kreg, and myself. Kreg told him right away that he was on acid and that he and Jill had been dancing around in the backyard with the dog while holding the baby. Apparently this got the dog riled up. Then, Jill tripped and dropped the baby. At this point the dog "ran over and bit Guy's neck like a rag doll." The police asked if Fred was able to control his dog until the animal control crew arrived. Apparently the dog was to be taken into custody immediately. After the report the police told me to get out of there and wouldn't let me talk to Fred or anyone. Although, as I was leaving I heard from the cop's radio that the infant accident was now a "fatality." Little Guy didn't make it 
So, I haven't been able to contact anyone who would know anything since. I'm pretty sure Kreg and Jill are in police custody with Fred, and none of the room-mates know anything.
It was a really terrible experience for all involved and made me realize a few things:
1) People need to make sure that they understand ALL that raising a child requires; a child is not a toy or a plaything or even your property. It is a PERSON! A little person that will one day have it's own dreams and talents and unique personal experiences. Please remember this! If you are not able to give the child the full care it needs, give it to someone who can. This is a HUMAN LIFE you are dealing with.
2) Tragedy can strike at anytime. You are most vulnerable when you least expect it.
3) Make sure your dog isn't a dick. I mean, I understand that all dogs are wolves and have the killer instinct deep down, but don't keep your dog penned up all the time in social isolation and them be surprised when he is a totally, aggressive fuck. Again, if you can't give the dog a proper, healthy environment, give it to someone who can! Fred's dog is scheduled to be killed due to the circumstances (and Fred's poor raising of the animal).
I'll post more as I figure it out. I'm burned out.
Sorry Guy! RIP

Damn, that is incredibly fucked up. The blame lies on the parents only, no offense but they sound like true fuck-ups. I'm sure their guilt will eat them alive. I'm sorry you had to be the clear-head and see everything unfold, very tragic indeed RIP Guy the innocent

I wouldn't blame it on the pet owner, dogs do what they want. If a child (a small child) plays wiht a large animal, the animal's going to think it's a toy or pray, and that's just nature.
I feel terrible about the child, but why on earth would you bring a child with you to a party where you're going to be doing drugs? That's terrible parenting. A huge mistake on their part and judgement.

I wish I could get some acid , but to do it when no one is going to be watching an infant while you bring it to a party thats just wrong. Its stuff like this that gives LSD a bad rap. You never hear about the scientists that took low doses of LSD and then they found the double helix in DNA.IF that happened to me am sure i would never touch anything ever again. I thought once you have an infant it makes you never what to touch anything again?
sorry to hear bout the baby. am pretty sure their going to have to kill the dog.
RI May he RIP seeing how is in a better place now and not have fucked up parents there. In the spirit in the sky.

I asked myself the same thing. The circumstances leading up to the event are just SO FUCKED UP, it seems unreal. If I were at a party where people were doing drugs, and there was a baby present, I would make it my personal responsibility to watch the baby. I don't understand how in an entire party full of people, everyone was ok with the fact that people were tripping nutz around a BABY.
It's just unreal. Tragic. Wow.
