I just don’t understand how anyone could leave a child in a hot car.
Watch the guy with the broken car window sue good guy for damages.
But do you notice how much sympathy the media has for a baby smothering in a sweltering hot car, but how little sympathy they have for a baby having its brains sucked into a sink in an abortion clinic?
Have a nice day.
“...today, she’s safe and at home.” Half true.
Who in the hell doesn't know a car gets extremely hot while sitting in the sun, even with an open window and child neglect is a $500 fine or 30 days in jail??? WTF
When I was just married I baby-sat for another couple in our apartment complex. When the baby was about 4 months old, Mom left her in the car while she went into her boyfriend’s (not hubby) house for a quickie ... this was in Arizona, in summer. That sweet little baby was dead in less than 15 minutes. It can happen that quick, so dang yes, I’d bust the windows out too! Good for Tom Hruska!
(and yep, I can totally see him getting sued for the window)
“At this time, the baby’s father has not been charged, but authorities are still investigating. “
And that is why we will have more of these incidences. The perps are not being held accountable. And why was this baby sent home? End times.
This happens enough that people are calling the summer “baby baking season”
911 first? That’s the only thing that he could have done better.
Several years ago I came out of the grocery store to find a group of 5-7 people around a car. It was July in Florida, hot as hell, and a woman had locked her keys and baby in the car. She was screaming that her husband was on the way and that they had called 911 10 minutes ago. When I looked in the car the baby had sweat beads on its face that looked the size of bees.
Less than 60 seconds later I’d opened the car via the opposite door window. I told her that if she wanted me to pay for the window I would. I never heard from her.
Sometimes people can’t get there brain out of the box.
Child Distance Monitor Early warning alarm system detects when child strays too far from adult supervision. Ideal for mall, busy urban areas, beaches, theme parks, airports, etc. The Angel Alert is activated when pulled apart into two small leightweight, easy to wear units; one each for adult and child. Child wears transmitter & adult wears receiver; an alarm sounds on adult's receiver when child strays (approx 30') from supervising adult.
One time, I decided to sit in my car for awhile to see how long I could endure it - windows up with sun. I can tell you I lasted only a few minutes. I just cannot even imagine. I think the fines should be much stiffer. It really is one of the most horrible ways a person could die. Literally being cooked. Something is wrong with people who park at an “entertainment complex” with a baby in the car. It’s hideous behind belief and I can’t even think about it as it is too upsetting.
Better to get and use the wrench first, and then worry about calling 911. Children can suffer permanent brain damage in these situations, and seconds count. Besides in a relatively busy place like that, most likely someone else would call 911 when they saw/heard someone smashing into a parked car with a wrench, and presumably yelling "call 911" at the same time.
$500 fine!!!!!!!! That is nothing for almost killing your own child.........
IF there is negligence?
This is prima facie negligence!!!
WTH??
