Honestly, Proud, when a child is injured and killed in this fashion it brings out the worst in people. Again - there’s ONE police report in which it was recorded that others had described I believe it was at most 3 instances where this woman left her child/children in the car for periods UP TO 10 to 15 minutes. We have no indication that she has ever done something like this before beyond a 10 to 15 minute window. And frankly I’m not going to indict the woman based upon that kind of testimony.

We have to believe the worst about this woman at every level to indict her and I just don’t think the article (despite how it and others are written) demonstrate anything other than this was a horrible accident. She does not deserve to go to jail and I can’t jump to the conclusion that she did this intentionally. Not based upon what i’ve read and what I’ve seen.

As for your last question - sorry - it’s a strawman argument. I would neither leave my kids in her care nor yours - what does that say about you?

Would you and your children sit in a 100 degree car for 15 minutes with the windows rolled up.....NO!

So you don’t think it’s irresponsible to intentionally leave a 2-year old alone in a car for 10-15 minutes (or anywhere for that matter)? Depending on the time of day and temps, 10-15 minutes can be just as dangerous, never mind the fact that dangerous perps are out there.
