Question When have TMNT killed humans?

I've been browsing through the episodes I have on tape and I can't find any instances in which the TMNT have actually killed humans; I've seen them kill Triceratons(?), lava monsters, Y’Lyntians, Moriah's monsters, S-Gray Aliens, God of Thieves Idol, Draco, Savanti Romero, tengu guardians, and two tengu demons [Just A Note: aside from the Y’Lyntians, Draco, and Savanti Romero, the TMNT have never actually offed any major villains-P.S. Sliver was another offed major baddie but that was by the Super Turtles, not to mention Donatello did successfully kill Shredder in SAINW but that was another separate dimension matter]

But when have they actually killed humans; I've seen foot ninjas, foot techs, and foot elite all be slashed, beaten, knocked out, disabled, short-circuited, fallen off rooftops, and caught in explosions(?). But I can't say for certain whether they actually killed any?
So still the question remains, does anybody here know for certain if the TMNT have ever killed humans in the new show? This is basically quick-question/quick-answer.

I'm pretty sure they ran over a 5 year old off screen.

They haven't, because it's a children's cartoon.

Not to my knowledge.

But April kind of killed Karai with bazooka in "Same As It Never Was", does it count?

Probably doesn't count but when Leo and Shredder faced off I think Leo cut his head off with the full intent of killing him, especially considering it was before they new Shredder was'nt human

Considering the battle shell's armed with missiles, I think it's safe to say they've killed some people with it.

I mentioned those people in my first post, they were the Y’Lyntians, but they weren't human.

I'm pretty sure at least some of the Foot that Leo has sliced have died from their injuries.

Leo intentionally cut shredder's head off, and they did assume he was human. I think thats the closest to a human death in the show.

Regardless of intentions or assumptions, these two facts still remain:
1. Shredder wasn't killed.
2. Shredder wasn't human.
What I asked about is any "for-sure" HUMAN deaths caused by the turtles.

As much as I would like to think that the turtles killed someone with their weapons, or indeed their bare hands, it all comes back to the fact that we are talking about a kid's show. I don't think that they will encourage kids to kill people by slicing their throat or something. No. As much as everyone here would love to see that, it's forbidden territory in the world of children's entertainment.

On the other hand, I'm sure that a few Foot Soldiers were killed in explosions, and possibly died of blood loss from fights with the turtles, or were perminantly crippled, if that helps. Though I think it didn't...

Actually I don't think the viewers are supposed to think of things like that. We're sick.

Many people have died in the cartoon though. They were not killed by the turtles though.

Shredder is the main killer, these come to mind:

1. Purple Dragon leader in "Things Change"
2. Hamato Yoshi
3. Those people that fell when the bay opened for the space ship in "Exodus part 1"

Yeah, I'm willing to bet that not all of the Foot the Turtles leave strewn all over rooftops and such are still breathing. However, there has never been a Turtle-caused onscreen death to my knowledge. A pretty high implied bodycount, but only one blatant beheading of what turned out to be an exosuit.

And yeah, Karai was missile'd in SAINW, but unfortunately April did it.

Oh, and don't forget Tan Shin from "A Tale of Master Yoshi". Though she wasn't killed by Shredder, she was most definatly killed. I actually liked her death though, since it seemed a fresh change from Shredder murdering her all the time. This time, instead of being killed for revenge by Shredder against Yoshi, she was killed by an envious friend of Yoshi's who used to love her. Though they didn't show any blood or cuts, or even a slash in her kimono when her body was shown to Yoshi, I think it may have been one of the best deaths in the series thus far.

So yeah...that explains why Leo decapitated Shredder oblivious to the fact he was a Utrom.
