Chanti, your points make sense. I feel badly for that man.
I’d like to know if any of you saw the video of her being questioned. She spoke of ‘doing everything for everyone’ and how ‘good mothers don’t do this.’ I thought I saw, and my husband verified, that she looked at the camera at one point. Quite the actress.
And, without a doubt, this WAS a pattern for her, leaving the child in the car. And that’s just wrong.
Agreed.
So she's the victim here. Just shows how self=centered she is, talking about herself when her child just baked to death. Maybe that's why she was so focused on the doughnuts, that would make her look and feel so good, bringing doughnuts for everyone.
And I just found out today that the carseat was on the driver's side. The car seat that she walked by at least three times.
I finally did get to see the video on the news...one clip of her at the school that morning, and one of her interrogation.
When I first read about the 5 trips to the car I thought they occured throughout the workday and that at one point she had gone out and moved the car.
From the video I see I was wrong. The 5 trips occurred when she was unloading the doughnut from the back of her SUV.
She couldn’t see her child’s head from the back, and it didn’t appear she turned and looked when she jumped in to park her car.
Apparently the child was asleep.
I can’t tell if she was lying or not during questioning.
If they aren’t going to prosecute her, they should drop the charges against the poor black couple who were prosecuted for a similar incident.
