I simply do not understand how a father “forgets” his baby sons in a hot car?
Smell test: FAIL...
No different from the broad who drove her children into the pond and let them drown.
Laws vary from state to state as do Judges Determinations....time will tell what is decided in this case.
Nobody is denying they didn’t die. .....apparently ‘his actions’ on finding the children and thereafter indicate he acted as most parents would on discovering the scene he saw in his back seat.... Nobody knows better than the father that his children are gone now.
No way to tell if the man was intentional without an investigation, is there?
Three common-law intents ranked in order of culpability are ...malice aforethought,... specific intent,...and general intent. Specific intent is the intent to bring about a certain result, do something other than the criminal act, or scienter. General intent is simply the intent to perform the criminal act.
To prove someone guilty of any crime, the prosecution generally must prove that the person physically committed the act in question, and that the person intended to commit the crime.... Intent in criminal law is complicated.
The point is the babies are dead, he is solely responsible, therefore he killed them.
Makes no difference his state of mind, he KILLED them.
Crap on your response.
They prosecuted that dude in Georgia based on material found on his computer.
Juan Rodriguez, a 39-year-old New City father, pleaded guilty Tuesday to two counts of second-degree reckless endangerment, misdemeanors, before Bronx Criminal Court Judge Jeffrey Rosenblueth via video.
Judge Rosenblueth sentenced the defendant to a one-year conditional discharge, which means he avoids any jail time. However, if Rodriguez gets into any legal trouble within the year, he would have to return before the judge for further action.
