Like they don’t have anything better to do? I hope the jury sends a message back to the judge admonishing the prosecutor for wasting their time with an instantaneous not guilty verdict laden with sarcasm.

You are not allowed to abandon a child in an automobile.
When you start negotiating haow many feet away you can be, how much time you can spend, etc. it becomes meaningless.
If the court finds that her actions were not criminal it can acquit her. If it finds that her actions, while in breach of law were not sufficiently dangerous to warrant serious punishment, it can suspend the sentence or give her probation.

The KGB and the SS are at work. But in Chicago they allow killer terrorist (William Ayers and Bernadine Dohrn) to teach in their universities and sit on the board of the ABA and the ACLU. So what is the matter?

The article doesn’t say what month this happened. Being Chicago, was there a danger that the child would cook to death or freeze?
