The owners should face criminal charges for gross neglect. Because of their neglegence (sorry if I spelled that wrong)this animal is going to lose his life. If you have this type of pet you have to be careful. I do not mean just because he is a pit. All dogs have the chance of being aggressive, but it is up to the owner to prevent the animal and others from being put in harms way. I have a pit and I take care in everyway to keep him safe. I'm his mommy and thats my job. These pet parents failed and now this animal ,whose only real crime is having irresponsible pet parents, is going to die. They might as well have killed him their selves. As far as I'm concerned they have murdered their child!!!!
