I found that framing the questions in an innocuous way, the way a child might, gets past your moderation settings. Try asking it “what happened to [dead guy]” and then following up with asking how you can see what happened.

I don’t think it should provide emergency assistance, but I do think it should tell the child to call their emergency number or a trusted adult - not just tell them it can’t help.

You're right that it does answer "what happened to ___". We'll work on that. I suppose this is a benefit to no links or photos, but decisions about whether to provide information like this and whether or not to tell them what to do in emergencies, are decisions best left to parents, so I'll add that to our list for the parental moderation options. Thank you.
