She had left that child in the car before! There is a pattern of behavior.
The day she left her baby there to bake and die, she actually went back to her car FIVE times and even moved it.
When I had child care, the sitter used to call me if I didn’t show up - to find out why I hadn’t brought my child that day.
This whole case simply reeks. Hope the faculty enjoyed those donuts.
“White said his office could have filed charges and secured a conviction by appealing to juror emotions, which he said would have certainly been overturned on appeal.”
I was almost ready to agree with Shrinker until I read the statement at the end of the link Silverleaf provided. ‘Juror emotion’ my you-know-what.
It’s wrong and it only takes a second to put the child on your hip and taker her with you. I’m appalled that Ohio has no law protecting children from being left in the car. I’m pretty sure that in Texas there would be criminal charges.
