Who goes to bed without checking on their kids?! What a tragedy for this baby.
drug infested liberals - photos of same offered here by Sheriff Grady.
Those parents that are drunk and stoned.
I agree 100%,
It’s hard for me to go to sleep 😴 before I know my daughter who is almost 20 years old is safe at home.
@@kencurtis2403someone just asked me this week why I quit drinking. My answer, I became a mother. I knew I couldn’t do both. I’ll be 59 next week, my kids are still more important than getting drunk.
Exactly.
Every child needs a parent, but not all parents deserve a child 😢
This comment is frequently used but it’s absolutely true.
Troll!
@@jasonhanks8258 YES YOU ARE
That's because most parents are still children themselves....90 years old and still spoiled children.... humans can't be adults they don't live long enough to learn how....
Truth is stranger than fiction
As painful as listening to this is, I appreciate the law enforcement for sharing it. May this be a wake up call for all parents and save more lives.
Praying for that dear child, and for all the 1st responders. 🙏🏻🙏🏻 People don't realize exactly how this can affect police officers, Paramedics, and anyone else involved. 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
The living children are the ones who need the prayers, the 18 month old no longer needs our prayers.
I think the popo will be ok. Pray for the two kids that are living bc life with in foster care will create some more low level drug users for Mr Grady to cry about. We need to retire these old geezers.
You're absolutely right people don't understand how it affects the first responders all of them take that home with them
@@bob-dm1mo And those who cannot form a comment without social idiocies.
In H/S we all made friends with the Police. When we asked about one we hadn't seen in a few days, we were told he took a leave. A few weeks later we were told he left the Dept. Reason why, he and his partner were called to a car accident. When he approached, he saw a child who was not buckled in properly half way thru the windshield. It literally destroyed him.
I am a father and grandfather and this has just destroyed me. That poor baby literally cooked to death from the inside. This is absolutely heartbreaking 😢😢
According to the American people, abortion is still the worst thing a person can do.
@@shaurya890still murder you fool
@@shaurya890nothing says compassion like making a childs death about how you want the law to allow you to kill babies.
@@shaurya890Any form of CHILD ABUSE or NEGLECT, is the WORST THING, including the PREMEDITATED MURDER OF the UNBORN.
@kitt7459 exactly! I couldn't have said it better myself.
This is insane. I double check to make sure my dogs are ok before I go to bed. I can’t imagine being so slack around babies.
I think the issue here is the multiple substances. I have had times when I was so genuinely tired, just for a few minutes, something unsafe had the potential to happen. For instance, I fell asleep on the couch, after two days of exams, absolutely exhausted, at about 4 PM, only to wake up at 1 AM and realized I needed to put my kids to bed. I’m sure we’ve all had a moment when some instinct kicked in and we all of a sudden realized we needed to check on our kids, or dogs, or Cats, or partner. And I think those instincts are pretty powerful. But when you take one or more substances, those instincts can’t work the way they need to. I think if they had simply been extremely tired, that, for instance, the mother, might have fallen asleep for an hour or so, and then something would’ve prompted her to wake up, feeling that something wasn’t right, check on her kids, and go out to find her sleeping toddler. Any warm, but not deadly car, and bring them in before any harm is done.
💯
Exactly you double check your animals before you go to sleep you make sure they have water when you’re walking them etc. yet these people forgot their baby girl, and I use the word people because they are definitely not parents!
I also check on my dogs as my dogs are now my babies. I lost my daughter almost a year ago to murder. She was 38. She left 4 beautiful children alone to grow up without her. She was a single mom. I can not sleep without my dogs in my bed. They have been my comfort from my daughter's death and I can not sleep unless they are tucked in my bed..
Same...I always check my cats are good and even close the bathroom door because one night my cat actually closes himself in the bathroom.,..lol...I woke to cat screams....lol....I never leave that door open anymore.
My heart goes out to the police officers and hospital staff who responded to this tragedy.
I really CANNOT imagine the absolute horrors they regularly come across that more man likely haunt them for the rest of their lives 😢😢😢
@@cmagee14 I know. I know as I witnessed my loved one be an officer and his turmoil all the time. Legalizing marijuana in my opinion is a huge mistake. How can a person drive a car or function….. this stuff happens and who suffers.

@@teresabyrne855 Punctuation.
@@tessaducek5601 what???
Drugs , drugs and more drugs quite possibly to not care and forget
Drug use caused it
Driving drunk and high with children making it home but forgetting your youngest was still in the car is just horrendous
Sound like they was either arguing or high off substance
@@MrAllenTv773 sounds like? It was confirmed their drug and alcohol levels in a test.
They could have killed more than one person
It was common procedure for my father to drive us around when he was drunk when I was a child considered no big deal😂
@@davidmann4533cmon dude it’s hardly a laughing matter, this baby just got cooked to death due to alcohol and drugs, have some dignity whilst commenting mate.
This is awful. I believe what Sheriff Judd said, not an accident, but negligence. Terrible
Yet Dept of Children and Families allow addicts to care for their children.
He hates anyone who isn’t white! His background has nothing to do with this tragedy! It’s meant to taint the jury! I wonder when’s the last time Trump had to give blood or be tested for drugs and sorry but Marijuana stays in your system for a hundred days depending on your metabolism and the amount of fat you have on your body. This was a tragedy and it’s that simple !
Is just to many accidents like that, dont you think?...I think their kids are on the way of all this horrible parents!

Next time you’re sitting in a hot car before you turn the air on, just take a minute to feel what every child and pet had to endure with never having the opportunity to escape the hell they were being put through by the people who were supposed to take the best care of them. Absolutely heartbreaking and enraging.
Don't you know some parents murder their children ? These are not all accidents..
I’ve tried this several times before, because EVERY summer, at least 10 to 20 children around the country die in a hot car!! 😢 So, I’ve tried to be brave enough to experience how this might feel, but every time I get into my extremely hot car to see how long I can last without desperately opening the door, I never can last for more than three minutes without feeling like jerking the door open!!
Imagine the extreme pain and panic and terror these babies and toddlers feel upon waking up because something is wrong! …I’m in a hot car, and no matter how much I try, or how loudly I still have the energy to cry, NO ONE is opening the door and NO ONE is getting me out of here!! 😮😢😫😖🥺😢😭😣😵💫😩😭😰😱❤️🩹
This is truly a horrific death!!!!!! The sheriff is correct!!!!! 😢😭😢😭😢😭😢😭😢😭
That poor little sweet baby girl!
I know that as soon as she passed away, Jesus took her in His loving arms, comforted her as only the Savior could, and then took her emotional pain away!!!
She is safe with Him now…💕
This comment hit hard 😢
@@deboraholsen2504amen ❤️
@@vignetteorleans1631I'm not sure where they said it was done accidentally, just said neither ever got the chance to cry for help after being killed by the person that was SUPPOSED to care for them most...if that's not what you were implying then that's my bad, that's just how it seemed
RIP Beautiful innocent baby girl. I’m weeping with grief! Heartbreaking 🥲💔
I'm so tired of hearing about parents leaving their children in the car. I raised three children and helped with five grandchildren and I never left any of them in the car. This is so horrendous. I hope they think about this baby for the rest of their lives and what the poor little girl went through.
I raised seven and not once did I "forget" my child was in the car. I have seen news reports saying put something important in the back so that you remember your child. You know what else is important? The child...what could be more important?
@@realvirginiaToday? Drugs..
@@TSD438The majority of the 33 deaths in the US last year were caused by sober parents.
@@callmethreeoneI think he meant "put something important in the back " for these two parents and he suggested drugs? Because if they had just put drugs in the back seat, maybe the parents would have remembered to to check the back seat. 😢
@@BeRightBack131 Sure I understand this instance, I didn't figure he meant just this one day, but very possible. Not trying to take away from the situation , just saying blaming drugs for everything has fixed nothing, this is something that needs to be fixed.
Leave both parents locked inside hot car as punishment.
Agreed!
…in a hot car until they die also.
Sounds fair.
I do like the way he delivers these conferences. He is gentle concerned and heart wrenched, an awful job and will never get past these visions.
Praying for him and his family.
This poor man. He’s always doing horrible stories & tragic press conferences. He has to have a heavy heart. I’ll pray for you & your family. I’m so sorry you have to deal with things like this. God bless you for doing it.
He’s doing his job.
God wouldn't even save that dead child! Do you think He cares about that burdened Police officer??
@@theresedavis2526I believe that everything happens for a reason & sadly that includes bad things happening to innocents. I believe that sometimes people have to suffer to teach others lessons.
I can't imagine ever sleeping to 11:00 with children that needed to be taken care of, especially including an 18 month toddler
When my grandson visits where up at 6am ……..awful parents .
Well they're meth addicts so
I can’t imagine partying and doing drugs with my children present. Get a sitter or stay home. We have to have a license to drive a car but any idiot can have a child.
I am up by 5:30 am latest 6 am for my DOGS! I could never forget my dogs anywhere. This is horrific. That poor child 😞
Lol. You can't imagine people having a different life than yours? People born under different circumstances, raised differently, different experiences and making decisions based off of the experiences they've had? You can't imagine that your choices might be right for you but someone else's life choices are right for them? What a dunce.😂
If they still tested for Alcohol 17 hours later, that implies that they drove that vehicle drunk with a toddler in the car on top of everything else.
How disgusting, wreckless and completely irresponsible. Living a clean, sober life is the only way one should parent. Period.
They had 2 other kids in the car also.
@@vrjanice2 and other people on the road or near the road
I was a junkie for over a decade, and had kids. NEVER put them in any situation like this.
If I went out, they stayed with G'ma.
Granted, my use got worse, and I got sober (6yrs now)
There's people who just do not give a damn. There's absolutely no excuse.
Let them think about this every single day in jail 😡
@Tattooedladyd
Sadly any dog on the street corner can get pregnant.
They should be charged with drunk driving, also, but idk if they can because they were tested so long after the fact.
As a father, I'm weeping right now. What horrible actions did these parents deploy !!! We need to protect and love our kids. PARENTS....GET OFF OF THE DRUGS AND ALCOHOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Trust me, being left in a hot car is painful, even when you get saved from the situation you stay sick for days. My mom left me in car at Bartow courthouse in 1970 and told me to keep doors and windows locked. I remember being soaked in tears and sweat and people looking at me with nobody stoping to help. I dared to roll the window down half inch for what felt like air conditioner. She came out right when I knew I was going to die! I was five. I threw up for days. I look back and realize how close to dying I was and while freedom was just to open the door I was to scared of getting in trouble. Crazy!
Heart breaking. I have no words. I hope your life is brighter now. ❤
I know too well how is like to put yourself in dangerous situations because of your parents behavior. I guess in some way you even blamed yourself for not exiting the car... I hope you now know none of it was your fault ❤
Parents are clueless and awful sometimes, and that is never our fault or responsibility.
It took me 38 years to "exit my family car", but I finally did it.
I apologize if I understood you wrongly, and your mom just made a terrible one time mistake. ❤
@@artifundio1 Quite the metaphor, isn't it? I'm glad you were able to escape ❤
Yikes! Horrible. Barstow, CA? That's a hot place! Glad you survived.
Gosh my heart breaks for Little you 💔
Tears flowing down my face. That baby went thru one of the most horrendous deaths.
Exactly. How can we save children????? This is so horrible!!!! Cannot get it out of our minds. Maybe we should start car-checking in all parking lots. Car checking groups.
Tears also here. I believe that our God did not let this little soul suffer. I believe He took her swiftly to His arms, with a purpose for life in Heaven. I believe He knew that those parents were not worthy to care for that little bright life. Lord guide those parents, who must now learn the worst lesson possible. Lord guide them, as they receive rightful earthly punishment for their disregard for the life of this blessed child. Lord embrace that soul that you created, and keep her, in your care, and everlasting love. Amen.
Those poor children who lost their baby sister and their parents all in one day. 😢
So sad. I raised 2 girls and 1 boy in Dominican Republic that have a very hot climate, and i never forgot one of my kids inside a car or anywhere else. Always pending on my kids first. That is the way parents should act. I drop tears listening to the Chief explaining how this little angel died.
@@wiltonmedina6209😢😭😭😭💔
The loss of the parents ain't a damn loss at all.
I found a dog 🐕 dying from heat exhaustion in a hot car in a mall parking lot; he was prostrate laying on the floor. I had the car owners paged through the mall, but no one came so I bashed the window in with a rock and pulled him out.
I had taken him into the air conditioned mall and staff brought water; we soaked him down and was giving him some water when the people were walking out. They were angry that I had broken the window to SAVE THEIR DOG! RCMP arrived and arrested them for animal cruelty.
They deserve to have all their kids taken away regardless of the misunderstanding of who was paying attention
They deserve life without parole.
My heart is aching. Prayers for the officers, first responders, and this fantastic sheriff. I love watching him. And for the two living children may God wrap you in his arms and protect you. For the parents, you have to answer to the almighty.
I have a 2 year old daughter. I never let her out of my sight for more than a minute or two. This just blows me away. That poor little soul. :(
Those babies are like a comet - a streak of light across the sky and gone.
Who cares what you think?
I don't understand how parents can forget their baby
Still in the car.I feel sorry for
baby who suffer a lot for seventeen hours inside the car.
We have two dogs,we don't
leave the house with out
air condition plus electric fan
for them.
Because of alcohol,weeds,
amphetamine,they are
not in their right mind.
How can you sleep with out
checking you're kids, It's
mind boggling.
I am a father of a 3yo I don't let her out of my sight for a second. Maybe if she's upstairs watching her cartoons and I run downstairs to get her a drink or snack. Outside the house she stays at arms reach

No one leaves an 18 month old unsupervised for 10 minutes!!!

...bad parenting does.
@@JaxonSmithersTotally agree and I don't have kids either
You cant turn your eyes off a baby for 10seconds!!!!!!
18 months is young. But 18 months is almost 2 years old! Think of your 2 year old, or the last 2 year old you’ve been around, and how aware and intelligent they are. That baby knew she needed help, mostly likely cried for hours. This baby suffered and was aware of it. And it’s that is killing me. -I’m just so sad for the baby.
I’m praying that since baby was strapped in a baby seat( he said the daddy brought the whole seat in, ) That our Lord heard it’s cries and baby went into a deeper sleep, and the Angels come brought the baby home , I know the baby is in heaven RIP baby,, give her siblings peace Lord Losing baby their mom and dad all in one morning is heavy for a 6 and 8 yr old
😭 this is so incredibly sad
@@tammyderson6547yes she is at peace now and like you, I hope she went into a deeper sleep. I feel bad for the 6 and 8 year old as well. Their whole family is gone in one day. I hope there's loving family that can take them in.
God damn it
😢😢😢😢
All you have to do is imagine being this baby, and you already know how horrific this crime really is.
Heartbreaking 💔 I cannot even begin to imagine how the hospital staff and investigators in these cases must feel. I wish they could give the “parents” the same treatment that caused the baby to die.
Exactly. Babies skin and organs are extremely delicate. The poor sweet child actually boiled to death!!!! Horrible horrible way to die. Even adults cannot tolerate this kind of death and that was a tender child!! They should get the same ....LOCK them in a hot car with no AC. Until we start giving the death penalty for these kind of crimes, they are going to keep on burning children to death.
Time to bring back eye for an eye punishment.
My thoughts go out to the deputies and the sheriff. This is the kind of case that will haunt the sleep of those working it for decades.
And they drove home from the party out of their heads , vile people , not fit to care for children 🤬🤬
Not fit to live, any longer.
And endangered others by driving

I’ve seen this man relaying the facts on investigations , solved and unsolved crimes for years. He seems humble, and I’m sure that the material, the people, and the evil he has been exposed to weigh heavily on his soul. May God bless him, and keep him.
Yes praying for the baby and her family, but Sheriff Judd and his soul because for everything that happens to his family and ours I know he's truly grieving like we all should. God bless you Grady.
Inexcusable for parents to leave their child unattended
Especially in Florida during the summer, it's notoriously hot and humid. Cars can get up to 160+ degrees in a matter of minutes when it's super-hot. This one breaks my heart. Poor baby.
@@JaxonSmithersYep
Right. I raised 6. 4 boys 2 girls. Never once did I not know where they was until the age we all did. Other words being a teenager. Sad 😔
When sherrif Grady said " They remembered to bring the food in, but forgot the baby"....... I can't even
Inexcusable for the parents to abuse drugs and alcohol like that
So heartbreaking. Hard to believe there are still people who leave children and or pets in cars in 2023.
Agreed. What I find sad is newer cars actually remind you to check the backseat. I find the lack of common sense contributes to one of the many flaws of relying on a more technical society. I never leave kids or pets in my car. Both winter and Summer can be deadly here in Wisconsin.
I don't disagree, but it's also at a point of silliness for Karen's out there. I go inside the gas station to pay for gas and the Karen's lose their minds. 30ft to pay for gas is not neglect and child abuse lol. And it doesn't matter what the temp is, it could be a mild cloudy 70F and they go nutty. 🙄
But what these parents did is sad. The pain of losing a child is immeasurable, and to have that happen at your own lack of judgment, weakness, addiction, whatever they want to call it. I can't fathom the added weight of pain that is added because they were the direct reason for their child's death.
@@EC_ATV_Outdoors and I don’t disagree with you about the obnoxiousness of a certain type of person who seems to just be out looking for something to make them feel heroic or important that day but, I still have to wonder what kind of parent doesn’t constantly have their mind on their baby/child? How is your child not the first thought you have when you decide to do anything? Like how are my actions going to affect my child? Maybe it’s just me but I assumed that is how all parents mind worked the second their baby took it’s first breath.
@@TwitX2007 I'm not defending them, but clearly these two didn't grow up in the best environments. So they likely both became normalized to drug use, which normalized addiction, which led to them thinking it's all normal and their child would be fine growing up in this environment.
It's sad that this becomes the norm. But I've told my children and others looking for life advice. You are who you associate with. Hang around people who care and offer you something, and that you care for and can also offer them something. If you hang around thugs, you shouldn't expect to become the CEO of a top company, become a full partner of a law firm etc.
So when the norm is addictive substances and parties, you get what you've surrounded yourself with. And sadly something's that's because it's what you were raised in too.
@@EC_ATV_Outdoors I taught mine quality over quantity. It helped keep them clear of the bad decision groups throughout their adolescence.
I was obsessed with my son. He was my little buddy. I can't imagine leaving him.
My heart breaks for this child...
The terror and torment she experienced. It brings tears to my heart and eyes. Poor baby. RIP. 💔
As a mom , even if the dad was asked to take the baby out of the car , and as a mom I would never have gone to bed without checking my baby and kissing my baby goodnight . Drugs and alcohol did not hamper the awareness of asking the dad to take the baby out of the car . So does that excuse the mom , absolutely not , where was the love , the mom is undeniably so guilty of neglect . That poor baby ❤️
I’m not even a momma and there is no way I could sleep not knowing if a child in my care is safe or not. I pretty much have to be in the same room as them to sleep.
Alcohol and Marijuana would not and do not affect my ability to care about my children to a paranoid degree. Especially when it comes to making sure their dad has completed whatever task I've asked, like keeping the front door locked since our 2 year old is strong enough to open doors. A 9 and 6 year old can take themselves inside.
I wouldn't be keeping company with a methhead or not have a designated driver either. Both of them were drunk, meaning they were drinking and driving with kids. Neither cared. I don't even let their dad mess around on his phone while driving with us.
This is what breaks my heart, both parents were ok with going to bed without kissing their kids good night.
@@biblemademedoit Exactly this 💯
They fed the other two children - at 2:00 in the morning! But didn’t notice the baby wasn’t there?
No words can describe the heart breaking news of this child’s suffering… also this is the most wonderful officer!
That family will never ever be the same pray for all of them🙏💔🙏💔🙏
dam sure made sure that food made it into that house though didn't they! I am so disgusted with this , that poor baby
Good point.
This breaks my heart to think about how that baby suffered. Senseless.
This is heartbreaking! That poor, precious baby girl! 😭
We as a society need to start taking accountability for the addiction problems that are leading to these awful situations and the issues we have that are causing addiction to be so rampant and impossible to deal with
I love this guy. I’m sick of everyone making excuses. That poor poor little girl so so heartbreaking.
I'm appalled... A mother's first instinct should be grab the baby out of the car seat 💺 first and the rest of the children 😭 😭 😭
Dad had one job! He failed!
Sounds like the other children were on there own, Hungry and alone.
You get the youngest first!!!!
This should be both parents instinct not just the mothers.
Imagine the nightmares those parents will have.
Being impaired around kids is just not acceptable.
At least they rushed to the hospital instead of hiding the incident.
Rip little girl💜🙏
Kind of like closing the drain after the bathtub is empty.
This is less about drugs and more about MISTAKEN ASSUMPTIONS on the part of both parents.
If they had been drinking or just exhausted - such an unfortunate thing still could have happened.
Neither one ignored their children.
Neither one said it was okay to leave the child in the car.
I’ve heard all sorts of possible excuses for why a white father of three in Ohio EXECUTED AND HUNTED DOWN HIS CHILDREN.
The death of a child is awful and ugly - but so is racism.
let's not call it negligence anymore call it murder. There is no excuse for this.

I will never ever understand how anyone can forget a child in a car. This is unforgivable! You remember to take your phone everywhere BUT not your child?
When you're drunk and drugged up, well, pieces of sh*t like these two- will forget the baby on purpose.
Very good, but sad point.
Too, there appears to be an element of crossed communication between parents. But still, very awful/
Very true. So sad.
Easy to understand when drugs are involved. 😢
I will never understand why people think it's okay to have little ones up at all hours.( I knew a mother who did this and it drove me nuts) Poor baby. Some people are just too irresponable to have any children. These 2 should be locked up for the rest of their lives
I know. My kids went to bed at 9:00. I didn't drag them around all hours of the night. Some of the people I knew had their kids up at midnight and later running around.
I’ve made very late night runs to grocery stores and it’s stunning to see parents out with small children that late at night.
WOW.....😢......The other 2kids just lost their ENTIRE family in one day. I hope the other children are being taken care of in a loving new home 💔
This detective did an remarkable job of describing this horrific incident, held it together as much as possible. I feel for the siblings of the little girl, none for parents, drugs do kill and these things unfortunately do occur.
Yes, disaster waiting to happen, and sod just this
This is heartbreaking 💔 Idiots like this do not deserve to have children period or be able to have anymore.
Now that's the only thing i agree with out of the whole story. Everybody is saying how they should spend life in prison or get M1. But they have to live everyday with their awful mistake. The worstustake they could ever make. But it was still an accident. Mothers get tired. Have left the water on and doze off just long enuf. Of course its tragic when it happens but it does happen every now and then. We should offer our mothers support. And thank God it didn't happen to you. I haye this for everyone involved. Mostly baby. I can't imagine. Makes me want to blame someone but not enuf to send to prison for a decade. Thats f'd up.
@@MaeganDrennanno.
No empathy. No sympathy.
That child is your (hypothetical parent in this scenario) *only* responsibility. Period.
Sterilize them both.
I am a Mother & Grandmother. This is beyond heartbreaking. Poor, poor Child. I hope justice is served💔
Justice can’t be served. They can’t lock these two in a hot car. So. No justice is served. They clearly did this on purpose. I they decided to get that messed up with three kids with them? It’s murder.
What justice will bring this little baby back to life??
And what happens to the other 2 innocent kids?? Is there family to take them in or are they going into the system because of stupidity?
@@ronallen6578 Exactly. The only appropriate thing would be to lock the parents in a hot vehicle until death. But that doesn’t fix what that poor little thing went through. I believe it was on purpose because you always get the baby out of the car first.
Human nature.
Oh wait. These two are not human. Out doing meth with three babies. Monsters.
8:58 8:59 CLEARLY” did this on purpose? Doubt that.. I believe she DID command the guy to get the baby. We’re high n tired and forgot - if on meth they loose track of time went to sleep so either coming down off of a huge long binge of meth wearing off
Heroin can just sleep. Didn’t catch what Type of drugs but intent is not clear at all. All that’s clear is a lil baby is now dead
The only person that loves to hear Sheriff Grady talk more than me is Sheriff Grady himself.
_"The child was healthy and fed..."_ Oh so this was an accident...
_"But this was not an accident, but negligence."_ What?
What parents are going out with three young children until 2 AM in the morning??? Disgusting!
Parents who only care about their own cravings. 😢
Eyeroll ffs
Right 😮my toddler is in bed by 7 ❤
Weak crack heads 😔
Definitely me. Life was different 20+ years ago.
I am SO Sick of hearing about people leaving either their pets or children in hot cars. That sweet angel did not have to die.
Absolutely! No reason whatsoever, it takes 2-3 seconds to look around before you lock up? Too much time?
Pets 🙄 Really...
Last spring I had to go to the vet with one of our guinea pigs and get something from the pharmacy on the way. It wasn't too hot, but warm already, so I wanted to be on the safe side and took the carrier with our pet in with me to buy the medication. Not for my life will I ever understand how you can leave your baby in a hot car. We had one basic rule we followed without exception: Baby will be sat in the car last (after everything is packed in) and it will leave the car first.
God bless the sweet soul who passed. This is so tragic, horrendous.
I can imagine that poor baby screaming for help and no one coming - it's horrible to think about. It's NOT just drugs that causes child endangerment, alcohol has a HUGE impact on children too.
130-170 degrees.. wow. This is nightmare fuel. I cannot possibly imagine what this poor child lived through before she succumbed to the heat… genuinely makes me sick. Rest in peace sweet baby angel, I’m so sorry your life was cut short, in such a horrific way..
This happens way to often. I am glad these people will be held responsible because we’ve all read about cases where there are no charges filed and they are labeled accidents. That always infuriates me. I absolutely cannot imagine the suffering that precious baby girl endured.
Yeah, the other parents that let their 3 yr old out at 3 am to get rubbed over. No charges at all for them.
Yes it does .😢
Yes, that’s what I was thinking. I know being a parent is tough but there is a level of commitment that some parents don’t get. I was surprised there would be no investigation, just assumed an accident. Not anymore. This needed to be done, people sometimes behave because they are afraid of going to jail more than what they’re interested in their kids which I don’t get but happens, unfortunately.
This makes me cry.
People who are not ready for the responsibiliy should not have babies
🙏
As a former EMT, I know it's not a popular opinion but people need to realize how dangerous alcohol is. It is impossible for me to overemphasize how many kids die indirectly from alcohol.
Or how about all of us with abandonment issues as a result of one being taken in an alcohol car accident 👎🏼
So heartbreaking. This precious little one, was aware enough, to feel fear, and unimaginable torment. I’m so sorry sweetie.
So the case didn't even begin until about noon on July 5th, 2023, after the toddler was pronounced dead, yet the case is 'solved' well before the press conference took place the following day, on July 6th? Sheriff Grady is good at telling STORIES.
@@tjmmcd1just curious... why do you dislike Grady ?
Your eyes are ravishing
@@irmavep9917 thank you ☺️
@@wk8000 anytime I hear someone make bitter type comments, I know they were either raised to hate police officers, and/or they have a long criminal record. (Of course, those are my own thoughts and opinions.)
Those that leave dogs and children in hot vehicles shouldn't be able to have these innocent beings
They should be put in hot cars as punishment until they pass 🤬😡😡
@@anacortinas6034 Well now Ana..that's the spirit !
That poor baby! What a horrific death!
Omg that poor child. That happened locally to me about 25-30 years ago. No one ever recovers from it. In the case here it happened 2x. One time the mother covered it up saying it her daughter had been kidnapped. Then after they figured out what had happened she was sent to jail and got out on parole and had another child! The other case was a woman who worked in a nursing home and left her baby to die in the backseat of her car from 8-5 while she worked because she forgot that she didn't take her to daycare
I'm sorry for the death of this child. Condolences to the law enforcement officers who had to deal with this avoidable tragedy. There really are no words.
Condolences to the officers???
They are usually first to arrive on scene when something like this happens. If anyone thinks it doesn’t impact the officers when they deal with things like this, think again!
@zariballard, you R so immature 🤣😅😂🤪😝
My late police husband had to lift a barely live 2yr old out of a car while on duty, her sister was already in the ambulance, that little one smiled at my husband and put her head on his big chest and died. My big bold husband sobbed in my arms, punched a hole in a board in anguish. You can't tell me officers aren't affected. As a RN I could only comfort him that he did his best.
@@joywebster2678I’m so sorry your husband had to experience this. Tragic. I hope your husband doesn’t suffer from the experiences and the memory. 🙏🏼
I've never understood how a parent can forget your child is in the car so sad 😭
Not just one, but two. Two people and not one of them can remember they have a kid or where it is.
Out of their heads on drugs and alcohol and they drove the car back in that state !!!
It's because they weren't parents.. just drug addicts that should suffer the same fate.
when they are high on drugs ... all things are possible. Such a disgraceful pair.
That's because good parents don't
About 3 months ago a deceased child was found in a car , in the parking lot of a Church. The “ religious “ parents were oh so devastated, and news coverage was nationwide. The church members were supportive and ( I’m not positive) I haven’t heard/ read anything else about this couple but at that time ,no felony charges were talked about,only misdemeanor negligence. A big difference in the 2 cases
I was 33 when my mom died and even when I was taking care of her at that big age, she still came in my bedroom to check on me. It’s a habit to check on your children. This is pure negligence and selfishness to continue to use drugs around their kids.
What parent with 3 children, one being only 18 months old, sleeps til 10 AM? Lord Jesus please help family members of this tragedy and the poor siblings. Hope both of these parents gets the highest penalty available. Due to negligence, a precious little girl is now deceased. 😢😢😭😭
Trash sleeps till 10AM.
Drunk and lousy negligent druggies are the so-called “parents,”
Are you going to send these parents to prison.? I don't need to hear anything else.
I've never understood how people forget their children in a car I mean who does that it's inconceivable I've had kids I have grandkids they're my life I get them out of the car first thing when I get home no one can forget that..😳✝️💜🙏🥺
So so sad. I can only think that this wasnt the first time that they drove home drunk and high with their children in the car...😢😢😢
for sure
Drug abusers have no business breeding!!!
Who keeps their kids out til 3 in the morning and is drunk and high, fully knowing they have to go to work the next day? Irresponsible, selfish, immature, lethal.
@@reallydarlings-se2xf
Then sleeps In until 10-11 in the morning?
Our board of corrections needs to begin handing down tougher sentences that match the fate the victim was given!
The othe people at the party are just as bad for letting them drive home full of drink and drugs with children in the car. The whole thing is horrendous.
I was walking into a mall a few years ago and noticed a group of agitated women and milling about a truck, muttering THIS IS UNACCEPTABLE!
I looked into the truck they were agitated about and there was a baby red and SCREAMING, the temperature was well over 80 outside, truck door locked, no one in sight.
I called the police...even though i was told they had already been called.
I was told they were aware and would be there soon with a great deal of irritation on their part.
5 minutes later I called back but THIS time told the dispatcher that there was a woman smashing ALL the windows in a new truck and she seemed upset about something and SOMEONE should do something about it.
Then I hung up and got my tire iron.
Police arrived for THAT call...and the officer had NO idea there was a baby involved. I was almost arrested until the rest of the women started screaming at him!
And then the mother strolled out with shopping bags.
Believe me, it was a good thing for HER the police had already arrived when the rest of the women realized who she was!
A horrifying afternoon! Two calls about a baby in distress ignored but one about property damage immediately responded to...
As a mother, I can't imagine not tucking my baby in each and every night, and giving her kisses and saying night night to her. I guess mom will painfully regret her choices that night for the rest of her life.
I have a feeling you wouldn't be drunk and methed up around your children either.
Didn't the parents think to feed the baby like the other 2 before bed? Change her diaper? Feed her breakfast before 10 am?
The parents think that they are victims.
8:49 "This is not an accident, this is pure negligence. And I suggest to you, the core of the negligence, is the abuse of drugs."
So before going to sleep, neither “parent” felt the need to check on the baby, feed her or give her a bottle, change her diaper/clothes before putting her in bed? Each of them just assumed the other parent had done it, didn’t bother confirming or checking with one another?? And this was after taking their 3 young children to a party where people were doing drugs, staying out until 2am despite the kids probably being exhausted, and driving home intoxicated. With the level of negligence that just seemed to be the norm for these people, it seems like it was only a matter of time before something tragic happened to one of these kids. It would’ve been so much better if these idiots had been pulled over and arrested for driving drunk & high that night and had the kids taken away from them then instead of their baby girl dying an agonizing death in a boiling car while these so called parents slept in. I know there have been cases where tragedies like this happen due to genuine mistakes or miscommunication, but this is not just a tragic mistake. If either of them had cared enough to check on their 1 year old and make sure she was at least IN THE HOUSE before they went to bed, this would have been prevented. Rest In Peace little one.
i'm crying. i'm praying to that little girl. god bless her. You are safe now angel.
These monsters get blessed with children while there’s others who wish they had that opportunity! I couldn’t imagine how the baby was treated at home before this tragedy. This made my cry! My baby is 18 months old and this is heartbreaking 💔
