16 YEARS of probation for this? A very stupid and irresponsible act, to be sure, but that seems a little excessive to me.
Were the sober people who have done this same thing given similar charges for it? (Or the sober people who have accidentally left their child in a car, where he or she ended up dying of hypo/hyper-thermia?) They didn’t even have the “excuse” of being stoned.
Enough probation to get the baby she left on the car roof to adulthood. This happened in 2011, so the child would be between 2 and 3, add the 16 years probation and the child is over 18 when it ends. I wonder if the judge thought this was a way to keep woman and child together while trying to ensure woman thinks about consequences of her actions and maybe reconsiders before she acts.
