Tarajee Maynor, 25, of Detroit, a mother accused of leaving her children to die inside her sweltering car while she went to have her hair done, has been charged with first-degreee murder. Maynor, shown in a Southfield, Mich., police department booking photo, remains jailed without bond Monday, July 1, 2002. Maynor faces life in prison without possibility of parole if convicted as charged. Acacia D. Maynor, 10 months, and Adonnis D. Maynor, 3 years, died Friday, June 28 after being left alone in Maynor's black compact car for more than three hours, police said. (AP Photo/Southfield Police) |
