Ugh! Not Julie Grant. She’s the worst!
@@COURTTV My children's well be being has always been my number one priority. Their safety comes first even now that they're adults. My babies were attached to my hips at all times. I never stopped checking on them no matter what. They could be playing or sleeping, I kept an eye on them like a hawk. I've carried my babies out of the car many times while they were asleep. Little ones always fall asleep in cars. I've never left them alone. That goofball put himself first, totally neglected Lil Parker! He's simple and immature! What's with wanting to take a shower 🚿 while the police were there? The sissy had the nerve to catch an attitude. He's a pissy toddler! I hope he gets sent to prison for a long time!
I leave the home air conditioning running for my two cats while I'm all day gone at work, how could this man place less care for his own baby?!
Not only that, but it's common knowledge you should never leave your kid in the car...they drill that into your HEAD. And then people like this exist. I saw another story, two cops left their kid in the car with air conditioning for 30 minutes...The child still passed away and you can't convince me that the exhaust fumes and other things could have contributed, even if you're outside.
@@halroxdynasty8683 Our neighbor mother is a doctor, they both are, but one day she closed the door and supposably had to ac running and the engine was on, now I'm wondering what could have really happened, she was in the house doing something for like 5 minutes, I mean these are the kind of neighbors who leave trash in their yard because they have 3 kids, the first one is a brat, and goes after his family like crazy especially their dog. And they even let their family out during the poor air quality conditions, due to the wildfires in canada. it was insane.
@@illburnmyselfforreal omg! I stg tho, some ppl lack common sense and house training! It's wild they are doctors...
I get stressed out if I have to leave my cat in the car for 5 minutes. I’m afraid someone will steal the car. I don’t worry about the heat because I would never leave them long enough or on a day it’s very hot. All this stuff goes through my head about my cats. And I’m responsible for my cats, but it’s nothing like the responsibility I’d feel if I had children. You know he was leaving the children in the car so he didn’t have to look after them. He didn’t want to be interrupted while he played video games.
Not comparing a child to cats 😮😮
He didn't want to wake her so he wouldn't have to "deal" with her and he could go play games.
Most sleeping in the car in the afternoon, can be carried into the house and laid in their bed without waking them. I’m baffled. WTF.
Video game addict that probably raged at being interrupted
Well yeah, kids ruin everything.
@@benhartweaver9276gross. Sad people like you live among us
@@benhartweaver9276then don't have kids? Keep your legs closed if you plan to be a negligent parent
She had 4 children..not a husband...
Truth!
eh... shes texting him about this. why would you text something like this like a teenager..both of them seem weird
@@bbloodyangel1exactly!!!
The mom's not even distraught like wth?
Huh? She's texting him like that because she knows he's a useless man baby. How is that weird?? @@bbloodyangel1
BS! He didn't get distracted. He didn't want to be distracted while playing his game🙄
@@traciehoward2468 I said the exact same thing
Yep, when he got home the only thing on his mind was playing video games.What a child.

@@KimberlyBishh and he thought, I'll keep her locked in the car so I don't get disturbed, evil schemer, Murderer.
Some people these days value materials more than humans lives. Modern civilization has strayed so far from natural living
He sounds like a lazy irresponsible parent. According to his wife and kids he leaves the kids in the car how unsafe is that?
The mom knew he was doing this over and over but still trusted him. Wtffff
You sound old.
I haven't seen the video yet, but maybe she had no choice? @@kayladavis7140
@@kayladavis7140She is Waiting
for a Tragedy to Happen. She is
Complicit in this.
@@kayladavis7140 she's an MD, I think she was hoping and trusting he was helping out with the parenting. He had probably stopped doing it for a short time and then he started up again and this is how he got caught.
I am absolutely heartbroken. Your child should be your #1 priority...
1,000,000% True!
My kids were always 1st on my mind! They still are at 28 and 15 yrs. I'm always worrying about them! That little Angel was perfect😢God Almighty, what a TRAGEDY.
💯 Such stupidity. Yet it is tolerated and even explained!!
Imagine leaving a child in the car in AZ because the child is sleeping ? Disgusting.
@@mustard744it's not stupidity,he planned his "nice day", should have checked for sleeping tablets or drugs in the girls body. He maybe gave her something to make her sleep, giving kids date rape drugs so he gets a quiet afternoon??
Having a habit of leaving the kids in the car is straight up evil. I'm sorry for the family, and every single parent who lost their kids in real accidents which can happen to everyone.
Yeah. Who leaves kids in cars?
@@annazaman9657 I won't even leave my dogs in the car. I forgot them once for like 10 minutes on a cool day and felt terrible. He didn't care about that little girl at all.
if the engine was running, doesn't that mean that someone could've slipped into the driver seat & taken the car with the child in it, too? Thats another nightmare scenario right there....
Tucson; summer, and you leave a child in a car during middle of the day. He needs to go to prison for the full term.
It was. 109° OUTSIDE, so that car had to be 200° !!!
@@KimberlyBishhmy God!
Just thinking about that !
109° and even Hotter inside the car smh
That precious baby suffered !
It's a darn shame!
I wouldn't leave an *animal* in the car alone in AZ, even if the A/C was running. Like, no.
This wasn’t simply being forgetful. This was being neglectful.
@@JustAFace_InTheCrowd It was willful neglect!
She was married to a man child. Reckless endangerment. Dad wasnt thinking
Stop leaving them in the car? This is habitual child neglect
He has a history of this. And before someone says she should have divorced him first- he would get some kind of custody and still continue to do this
💯
Get a nanny then.
Exactly, he would have had them alone if he won full or partial custody, very scary prospect.
@@violette4841ummm...
Thank you. All the ppl blaming mom for dad's incompetence is wild and cruel.
There is no excuse, this is a blatant murder.
Problem here is unfortunately...soo many people leave their kids and animals in the car like this!!! This man was told, by the mom .wife to not continue to leave the kids in the car😢. 😰 terrified death for this child. Rip sweetheart ❤❤❤
@@deborahstone9696 No normal human leaves a 2 year old alone anywhere, if he wasn’t a narcissist, he would’ve offed himself if it was truly a mistake.
He knew what the result of leaving her in that car at 109° OUTSIDE would be.
Exactly! He left her for 4 hours!! And she was 2 years old, there is nooo way he forgot. At that age you don’t take your eyes off them!!
💯
The dad was thinking he doesn't have to respect his wife's wishes to stop leaving the young children in the car. He doesn't care about anyone but himself.
Why would the Mother give so
many Chances to him ?
She doesn’t Care about her Kids. 🤷🏻♂️
Yeah because mom enables & coddles him. After the second time he leaves my kids, I’m calling the cops or getting a nanny & forcing him to pay for it since he doesn’t want to take care of his own kids.
The fact that she wanted the husband bailed is insane & shows her stupidity. I couldn’t even look at him if I was in her position. The main thing here is he left his kids several times, it’s not a mistake.
Nah ! Nope ! Negligence & Stupidity Not buying it at all !
This Evil business of leaving any child in a car to bake a high temps, needs to stop!
"Police seized his Playstation". What a bizarre world we live in where video game systems become evidence in a criminal case. And what the hell is wrong with adults today? What idiot would text about what he did? Death is not some casual thing to text about. Smart phones have really created some of the dumbest specimens of humans living today.
She was in the ambulance and texted him , what's unusual about that??
The texting did seem casual and inappropriate
Whose side are yu on 😢😢😢😢😢
It's repeated behavior. No excuses. His wife is an enabler. She's a DOCTOR?? omg
Right and her text to him was way to calm, she needs to divorce him
A lot of very smart people have zero common sense. Unfortunately not everyone is good at being a parent!!
I mean I'm sure he said he wouldn't do it again was she supposed to babysit him or believe he'd be a decent father? Stop blaming mothers for fathers being selfish children. She didn't do this. He did.
She's an anesthesiologist and she's married to THAT...not only that, she BEGGED for his release like ugh 🙄🙄🙄 just keep that in mind when you think about these are the people that are in charge of your health - these are the people that are inserting needles into your spine 😂😂😂 no common sense whatsoever
@@whims6278yes he did it but she enabled it and then the text messages are revolting - she's calling him baby and consoling him 🤢
Weaponized incompetence at its finest. Poor little baby.
Distracted by video games, and putting groceries away? He puts his kids in the car when he doesn’t want to have to deal with them, probably makes them promise not to tell mom..those texts are also extremely strange…. They seem there for the record rather than fluid conversation. This is fishy to me.
@@LilyRoberts561 I agree with you
Seems for the record. I was wondering what I found weird about it until I saw your comment. You hit the nail on the head.
I agree, it’s weird to text your spouse about the fact that your daughter has died. You don’t talk face to face or even speak on the phone but you text it? Very strange.
I said this on another post but you can't convince me these dudes aren't doing this crap on purpose - it's always a certain type of guy, and the always of a certain tax bracket...why is that?!
@@kdash7right oh my gosh that's how you know these people are weird...
One time my son wandered off, when we were at a park... The way I was hysterical screaming crying I called the police right away they had found him he only wanted about 100 yards, the playground was right next to a main road and no one knew that. Still, with him only being gone for that short amount of time I was hysterical...so when I see stuff like this? Absolutely not. I would be calling him telling him what happened I'd be screaming and crying...And I certainly would not beg a judge to let him free!
💯
2 year olds are busy, and require you full attention. You can’t play video games and watch a toddler. Prob did it because he didn’t want to deal with her.
I don't understand why some people have children when they're not fit. He has the mind of a child himself.
when you tell older people " i dont want kids" the reaction can be varied, lots of people feel like its the normal progression of life and that a childfree life is a deviance from the norm
@@grogsmashrock7240 Exactly. Many of them is to blame for these incidents. Keep pressuring their kids to have kids. They need to wake up this isnt a peasant village in the old country where you have a million family member and neighbors to help you raise your kid or look after them.
@@John-bu2xt😂😂 nobody is responsible except for the losers not taking care of their children properly!
Ego
@@John-bu2xt it’s just not as viable in a country with no maternity leave yet ~60% live paycheck to paycheck plus weak healthcare/mental healthcare system
Ok, WHY are these parents texting? I'm sorry but if my child dies because of my husband's negligence, I'm not texting like a teenager. I'm getting on the phone and cussing him out where he can hear my voice. This whole thing is weird.
I can’t imagine a worse text for him to get from his wife than ‘how many time did I tell you not to leave the kids in the car’… Just cause she didn’t use profanity doesn’t mean she didn’t tell him off. I don’t understand how anyone can’t understand how she would want her husband with their family to grieve. Obviously she knows he’s going away for a long time. It’s probably not the time to rub his nose in it.
Right?! It’s completely voided of emotions
@@Troe76 this isnt him forgetting to get groceries... their child died. you dont text like this for something this tragic. and they live in the same home. Wtf?
It was while she was en route to the hospital. Emotions were high so she wanted to get something out to him but I’m guessing she also needed to focus on what paramedics were doing in the ambulance (she was probably riding in it too?) so she couldn’t make a call right then. It doesn’t seem that weird to me, my husband and I text constantly. Never in a situation like this of course though.
@@lifeofspite but the texts feel robotic and as if they are intended for evidence... its just bizzare
The "we all play video games" defense is BS, and I can't believe he just suggested it.
Exactly. The vast majority of gamers know when to put the controller down and focus on reality. If he wanted to do nothing but eat and play games he shouldn’t have gotten married or had children.
There's no excuse. You weren't distracted. You weren't playing the game yet. You just didn't want to be bothered. What about the other kids? They will never see their dad the same way again.
10000%
He knew darn well she was still in the car. He'd used the car as a babysitter for one or all the children repeatedly so he could play his games in peace. Now, his wife, who knew he was doing this, wants him back.
Even if the temperature would allow it. I would never leave my child in the car. Anything can happen, choke on salvia, throw up. She could be crying. I can't understand this😢
Exactly 💯
Right !! ANYTHING COULD HAPPEN so you don't take a chance!
Why would a 2 year old choke on salvia!?
A lot could happen. A child could open the car door and walk into the street and be hit by a car, run away or be kidnapped..
Yes. And some weirdo might see the children in the car and kidnap them. I can’t wrap my head around leaving pets alone in a car, let alone children. It’s dangerous!
He threw everything away for a stupid video game! The prime example of a manchild. It looks like there’s only one adult in that marriage. I hope she divorces him. This is unforgivable.
She bailed him out and knew he kept doing this
There's NO excuse for this
EVER
The dad was thinking he'd enjoy free time to play video games. Horrific! Why wasn't he worried about someone taking her? She's dead because his video games are more important than his own children. Unreal!
Lived in Arizona almost my whole life, never ever left my kids in the car. He actually left her in there because she was sleeping. This was no accident.
Exactly. It's called you carry her inside so she can keep sleeping in her home.
Yeah he didn’t remember her it’s like she’s invisible
My husband was a horrible nurturer for our children too. I couldn't trust him to take care of the children safely. And then I figured out I have one extra kid, and it's him. Sounds like this guy. The poor mother😢
I never left my kids in the car. Never. I'm a busy mom who could get distracted, the risk is too high. I'd rather spoiled groceries and a crying baby, than take that risk.
Im like crying wth. Thats sad
When you have a child you stop thinking about you and your center of attention becomes the child. When you don’t disasters like this happen.
Yeah I was very anal about making sure I always took my child out the car. She was almost always sleeping because car rides put her to sleep but I always grabbed her before anything else. Not even just due to heat, I don’t get how anyone could leave their baby in a place no one can hear her for hours on end as he apparently did multiple times
Why is a doctor married to a man she already knew was neglectful of their children?
And why would she beg for bail? He left your child in a car to play a video game!! The text message clearly shows this wasn’t the first time this happened either.
She needed a built in babysitter
If you marry your sweetheart you can’t possibly know what kind of parent they’ll make ten years on! This is all his responsibility!
Exactly my thoughts too
@sylviaguice169 agreed 👍 another mother who chooses a man over her children 🙄 she needs her medical license revoked!!😢😢
This family lives ~ 15 min from me. We are close in age and have similarly aged kids. There is NO EXCUSE for this selfish, reckless idiot to leave a child in the car. As reported by our local news, he did so IN THE DIRECT SUN.
I remember this day vividly. The heat was oppressive. Even staying in the car for 30 seconds after I turned off the car felt hot.
The wife is an anesthesiologist. The idiotic comment about potentially charging the wife for leaving the kids with the husband? For real?!
Regarding wanting him home for the daughter’s funeral - why should he get to have a pass, to NOT see the pain his actions caused? Why should he be spared seeing the funeral and everyone mourning this beautiful child. I don’t think she wanted him home out of sympathy. She is probably just trying to get through this next moment.
Horrific.
Was he a Stay at home dad? If so it really shows his character to allow his wife to take on all the financial responsibility while he just sits on his ass and plays video-games
@@mikemadsen7926 I do not know. I was wondering that too.
She should be charged. She is a mandatory reporter who left her children with a person who was routinely leaving them in a car in Tucson. If she had left them with a neighbor who routinely endangered her kid, who she also failed to report, she would be charged.
Video games were his priority. He didn't care, and he thought nothing would happen.
What I don't understand is how people can play video games whether their 2-year-old is in the car or running around the house. They are 2 not 12, they need constant supervision. Where did he think the child was while playing his games?
@@stitches318my babys not even 2 & shes nonstop. Unless i have everything closed & found a cartoon interesting enough. & Other distraxting things. In front of us
People should attach their phones to their kids.
Nowadays, one never leaves their phone unattended for 1 minute, but a kid was 'somewhere' for 3 hrs+ and it didn't worry him at all
Not gross negligence? That expert should really be ashamed. As a nurse I take on more responsibility for strangers daily than this father did for his own children-repeatedly.
I’ve had far more competing demands than a child and a video game, yet still never have I come close to this kind of error. Him dismissing this as a “sign of the times” is also so tasteless, sir not all of us have such poor awareness skills.
Ya that man was completely disgusting.
Never leave a child in the car, even with AC because your car can be stolen
@@fireflymiesumae EXACLY !! unless they are 15 + in my opinion
You shouldn't have to put out a comment like this because this should be common sense. Anything can happen when leaving a little one alone in a car with the motor running.
He hadn't even seen his child for three hours, which means he didn't even check on her, period! It's not our cars responsibility to remind us to check for anything and everything. Maybe he should walk around with a controller in his hand to remind him that he has children. Js 😢
Any video game, phone, computer should have a reminder go across the screen "If you have kids, did you forget them in your car?" Amazon Echo should have a question by Alexa. "Did you forget your child in your car?"
Why dont people still dont know that its very DANGEROUS to leave Childern and Animals in cars during the summer time! Cars will get extremely dangerously HOT within only 10 minutes especially in areas where its always warm or Hot!!
Also, the child could have been kidnapped. The father didn't think of that, when he left her in the car.
JULY!!! In Arizona! I’m born and raised in Phoenix. People in Arizona know not to do this. I’ve seen car windows get broken and police called for dogs, who can at least bark and try to get some attention. Plus he was home. You’re not running in to get ice, or pumping gas, which is still a gamble. They were HOME. Absolutely ridiculous and heartbreaking…
Exactly, my parents used to live in AZ. My mom passed away 7/18/94 I spent a week there. It was over 115 every day. Never leave kids or dogs in the car, not even for a minute. 😢
How many children have to die in hot cars before parents actually understand the ramifications of it?
How can you expect them to understand when no one has actually been truly punished by the courts for their gross negligence? Guy in ny who left his twins in car got tears from the whole neighborhood, wife refuse to blame him, same this man’s wife and most likely the family is doing! When they don’t even force him to take accountability, when the courts don’t expect him take accountability, this will keep happening! It’s become a freaking trend for crying out loud! The minute spring started I already know what will pop up on the news! It’s never the parents fault! And that’s the problem! No accountability whatsoever
MARCO: Speak for yourself! I NEVER left my kid in the car nor any of my grandchildren, nephews, nieces in the car for ANY MOTIVE especially to play video games as NOT "EVERYONE PLAYS VIDEOGAMES"! How absurd to GENERALIZE THIS CRIME. You have no idea what you're talking about. Just shut up.
This makes me absolutely sick on my stomach. He should be charged with 1st degree since he knew she was in the car, aware she was still in the car while putting away groceries and whatnot. I can't hardly stand the heat at 95 outside swimming and under an umbrella.....RIP, sweet girl.
He didn’t want to be bothered with the child
This wife is brainwashed. He lost his right to be home to grieve. This sickens me. Why let him out to forget one of his other kids?
His wife also has accountability.
I get that this Dad is stupid and irresponsible not malicious - however, out on bail, he is still stupid and irresponsible. I think we can assume that the other 2 kids are at risk when left in his care. The wife seems to be in denial about how immature her husband is.
I doubt she's working right now. She wants him out for the funeral. They have 2 other young children who are grieving and probably need their dad home at the moment while they navigate how their life has changed. Dealing with their sister's funeral and their dad being in prison at the same time is a lot to process.
no i think she knows
What kind of a Mom is that? You would have had to bury the husband if I came home to my baby gone.
Same!
Exactly I wonder if they planned this
This usually only happens tragically and on accident when there is a change in the routine. Example dad never drops baby at daycare but wife has Dr appointment so it’s his job that morning. Mid route he goes into auto pilot goes into the office and doesn’t even remember his baby in the backseat until his wife texts asking why the baby wasn’t dropped off. Father frantically runs to the parking lot. This sounds like repeated child neglect and negligent homicide smh. Weaponized incompetence with deadly consequences
Very well said!!
@@D_Parks thank you I remember a case many many years ago a school principal forgot her daughter in the backseat. It was on Oprah a complete accident the change of routine. Sigh it stuck with me
So people now need to be told there’s someone else in the car?! We are doomed.
The new day cars do that now. It literally reminds you to look in the back seats for children. Before you get out 😅 a shame. Guess this is why there's directions on shampoo and tooth paste. Ppl like this
I have 4 children and not once did I leave them in the car or forgot to be aware of them, where they are, and if they safe. I don’t get these people at all
@@FlawlessAngeI It's always bad when we're reminded why there needs to be directions and warnings on shampoos 😬
Bet they never need a reminder to remember to get their cellphones!
@@QueenofKings-mh7znQueen you said a word 💯
Christ all mighty 😢
Video games, seriously! I'd tell him to grow the heck up, but I guess he's going to now, in prison!
Nope, they have video games in prison.
All I can imagine is her crying and yelling for her parents. This is just so sad 🥺
Please never leave your kids in a car for even a minute- so many things can go so wrong. This is heartbreaking.
The mom texting the dad asking why he killed their daughter as if he forget the Tide at the grocery store. What the living.
You don't have to be an attorney to know that this man was thinking about nothing, but himself.
As humans, we are creatures of habit. The habit of leaving the kids in the car SHOULD HAVE been broken AS SOON as the wife scolded him the first time. The thought of something tragic happening should have scared him enough to break that habit immediately. This was true stupidity, recklessness, and lack of responsibility.. My God! Bless that family to get through this.. 🥰
Who did not care what she said he did whatever he did how old is he with three kids still playing a damn game yes I’m judging and also do this fool have a job why the kids always with him the wife the mother is a doctor so is he a stay at home dadhe may want to stay at home, but he don’t wanna be a dad
Bless the remaining children. I don't feel sorry for mom. Mom was neglectful for allowing it to happen repeatedly. I feel like all it would take is 1 time and they were too proud to think it wouldn't happen until it did.
@@brigreen689 I definitely don’t feel sorry for her. She’s a damn ding bat. He don’t care what she says and that’s just why he kept leaving the kids in the car. What a loser.
What was he thinking? He wasn’t! His brain is addicted to video games and the next time he could get a controller in his hands, like an alcoholic waiting for his next drink. So, so very sad. RIP little one. 🙏❤️
How can people be so stupid to leave children in a vehicle it was unheard of when I was a mother. Even to run into a store. Good lord.
Never once did I ever forget my kids were in the car. These games are an addiction like alcohol, etc
iPads are NOT the “new babysitters” if you’re a responsible parent 🤦♀️😒
Apparently that guy leaves his kids in car too it sounded like
This chick definitely got her kid an IPad lol.
My 16 year old almost passed out here yesterday doing football practice in MID afternoon outside. How horrible to have been stuck in a literal oven like that 😢
The guy didn't even know when he returned home. And how can you be distracted by a video game for four hours? Didn't he need to feed the kids?
He knew he just lied because he didn’t want to be held accountable
That man just wanted the father title but didn’t actually want to be a father to his poor children.
NEVER for any reason hot or cold NEVER! Aside from the weather the child could be stolen. Children are our FIRST priority not video games! The wife is a FOOL!
You are so right! 100% plum dumb!!
why are you calling teh wife a fool? she was at WORK supporting the family. she didnt do anything wrong
@@fanofthedog Because he had done this multiple times before and as a mother you are responsible for protecting your children, whatever it takes so her knowing that he did this before and still allowing him to be alone with the kids in the heat, she failed to protect them so she bears responsibility too. You don't leave your kids in a dangerous situation with someone you know is capable of harming them gravely
Well said!!
I would be VERY worried about his actions while out on bail as a depressed man about to lose everything.
Just lazy!! Always leaving the kids in the car and to play video games. Didn’t want an outside job and didn’t want to be a real stay at home dad? This wife/doctor is crazy!
It's absolutely insane that a Doctor married a dead beat like that smfh
Is he’s househusband? Couldn’t get that right either.
Truly tragic. If this were my marriage, not sure if our marriage would survive something like this. This is truly negligent and all the hubby cared for was his dumb video game. 3 hours in the hot heat. That baby was tortured to death. As a mother, I would never forgive him.
There is absolutely no reason on Earth no excuse for this 😡 how old is he that he can't even take care of his own daughter because a video game was more important 😡
There are many distractions in this life… Your child is not one of them. Stop letting distractions steal your responsibilities that create beautiful memories and Love in your heart 😔💔🫶
These fathers and their video games!!! WTAF? Grow TF up or don’t have children. This is something I hear about so much with Dads and their addiction to video games.
I don’t see Moms having time for video games.
Another useless father.
Ladies, if he's obsessed with gaming leave him with his mother!
@@futuremelina Amen!
@@jettyoeill and porn
@@jettyoeill tell me about it, my friends found her 3year old flowting in the pool face down. Her husband was there playing games on the phone. When he heard her screaming thats when I noticed. Luckly the kids survived.
May this Angel rest in peace. I am so sorry, little one.
Terrible way to die! I’ve been in the heat for about 10 min the car broke down and I was having a heat stroke poor baby
WTF?!
Right? It's too wild to believe.
WHAT A LOSER DAD how do you forget about a 2 year old?? They kind of take up all your time when you are watching them and even when a 2 year old is napping you know exactly where they are. More than 3 hours??? How were the other children not asking about where the child (their sibling) was?
The wife/doctor request bail and got it and the murderer is out free !
She has got to be as bad as he is! So hard to believe……
Enabler.
She’s dumb “I told you to stop leaving them in the car” she’s an airhead. Then getting him
Out..for what ? So he can lay up next to her at night
He's not free. He is out on bail and will still face his charges. She's probably thinking about the best way to handle this for her other 2 children while they deal with the loss of their sister. Having your father taken away, even a selfish father is still a trauma.
Is no one saying the mother needs to be charged as well? She knew it was unsafe to leave her children in the care of their father.
If she divorced him, he would have had primary custody as he was the primary caretaker. Being charged for leaving a child with their father, who isn't abusive or drug addicted, is ridiculous. He was always going to have unrestricted access to his kids.
She's suffering the worst possible torment right now, and you want her thrown in prison? Her other children have lost a sister and will lose a father, and you want them to lose their mother, too?
His logic is lost on me. Oh wait, there was no logic.
The mother failed her children. Biological or not, he should have NEVER been left alone with the children. You know he's done this multiple times before. If someone is a danger to your children, whether they are family, friends, whatever, it is your job to keep that danger away. He's done this before and she knew. This is insane.
The father is the only one who failed. What is this constant need to push blame on women when the action is 100% on a man? She could have divorced him, and as the primary care giver, he would have gotten primary custody and would still have done this, only she wouldn't have gotten home from work and looked for the baby. The baby would have been in the car even longer. Maybe she thought he was actually capable of listening to her and comprehending what she was saying because he is a grown ass fvcking adult.
I worked as a helper babysitter all the time as a kid to help overwhelmed moms. This mom was a doctor with plenty of funds to hire a babysitter. She knew her husband left the kids in the car all the time. As their parent she should have made sure they were with a responsible caregiver. Lots of babysitters work for stay at home parents.
He’s lazy, immature and I think he doesn’t think about those children. Does he have a job or is he a stay home dad??
What an asinine excuse. 😡😡😡😡
A 'medical Dr' left children with him, sounds like this woman knew exactly what he was. Horrible situation.
I will nvr understand how anyone can leave their children in a car😔
This mother who is a doctor knew her husband left her kids in the car before & allowed him to continue to watch her children 🙄 terrible 🙄
Mom was wanting him home. Hearing her speak to the judge made me sick
Where is the compassion for a grieving mother that lost her baby through no fault of her own? Who wouldn’t want what’s left of their family home with them to grieve and help the other children with this horrendous loss?!
@@Troe76 The mother knew he had done this before. She is a doctor for heaven sake. He never should have been solely in charge of the children. How is this selfish man child going to be of any help in the grieving process? He has proven he is only out for himself.
True crime fans love to see blood. It's a bit sociopathic to assume the wife is supposed to automatically hate her husband, when this was clearly an accident. Moreover, the two remaining children are dealing with the trauma of losing a sibling. Losing their father would make the situation much worse for them. For him to go to prison would be the worst case scenario for the whole family.
@@lisas8244 we will have to agree to disagree. It’s wrong to come into a situation like this and condemn someone. I’m no one to say what was going on in their minds! I know in my situation with my ex husband he used to play video games but he eventually grew up. We have to trust our husbands and have faith in the lord. Just because he made a mistake doesn’t mean his wife and children don’t love and need him!! Especially during this horrible time.
@@odesangel well said🙏🏻
Why would this guy go to trial? There is no DEFENSE😢
He obviously wasn't thinking like a father.
Or let’s just say he wasn’t thinking
The wife is a doctor;she knows what the consequences of his previous actions might lead to. He did it before, she knew he did. She is a problem.
What kind of Dr is she? Did they say?
And what if he promised he would stop?
@Pollypocket678 Well, he didn't. To me leaving your children in a hot car; you are a doctor. Time for a nanny. Time to divorce.
@racharina anesthesiologist I think.
@@deborahsobel3314 I would have divorced him I just feel bad for her because that decision couldn’t have been easy. But this situation is much more difficult
How do people leave kids in the car to begin with .. even when it's not extreme weather
You can save the next two year old by teaching the Dad a lesson in prison. I absolutely cannot believe the talk of leniency here when this could have been prevented and this man had every single tool on the planet to not make this mistake again. The constant reminders. The access to technology - set a timer! Unplug your Xbox! How long can one play a video game uninterrupted as a parent knowing that something is wrong after a certain period of time because you are never not being interrupted or needed. This Dad probably played the next level of his game knowing he should have checked on his daughter. He knew he was forgetful and got distracted and did nothing to make accommodations for himself to not be a neglectful father. The consequences were always for others, never himself. Calling this a mistake or accident is egregious. This was this man's habit and inevitable to happen. Shame on the Mother for not seeing that.
That older gentleman, Mark I believe, is beyond ridiculous. What this father did is reprehensible. This isn't neglect as he says. It is unequivocally reckless and indefensible.
Hes to old to use playing play station as an excuse. Wouldnt he rather be playing with his daughter?
Its sound mother was aware of his reckless behavior, leaving his young children in car to play video games. And he is 37 years old????
MAY SHE REST IN PEACE🙏👼🙏
Unforgivable
Why didn't mom act ALOT sooner since she knew he did this??? She's also guilty.
I agree with you. She knew he was incompetent because she said. "I kept telling you."
Lol no
@@celiabrown153 Yes she is, she's also a DR, So she is a mandated reporter.
@winniethepoohandeeyore2 reporter of what? Mistakes? He made a mistake that cost him his daughters life. He was definitely negligent, he was the one who was in charge of the children at the time. He is an adult, and she shouldn't, and even in the laws eyes, she is not responsible for his actions (unless under extreme duress), which he clearly wasn't under. That is 1000% his fault and no one else's.
@@celiabrown153 THAT WASNT A MISTAKE, SHE KNEW HE WAS DOING THAT AND DID IT OFTEN. SO SHE IS ALSO GUILTY. SHE ALSO FAILED TO REPORT IT. GUILTY GUILTY GUILTY
For crying out loud your children must come first always.
😔😔😔 that poor child. I would never be able to forgive my husband if I was a medical doctor and told him to stop leaving the kids in the car then he continued to do so. I would not be able to forgive that!
I'm seeing a lot of hate for the mother in these comments. She is not the one responsible for her husband's actions/negligence. He's a grown ass man. She lost a child!
@@hunterhansen79 Their text messages back and forth don't sit right with me. I have a feeling it will come out in trial that she was more complacent with his recurring neglect than we know, but until then, I agree with you.
you would'nt leave an animal in a too hot enviroment let alone your own child!
this is literally my father. he abused me for years on end and i was taken away in 2021. no one listened to me. please dont let this be brushed under the rug.
So sorry to hear that you had a distressing childhood! Thank you for sharing, you’ll be in my prayers and also thank you for caring enough to speak out with the hopes of protecting other children!❤
life in prison
He wasn't a dad but the oldest child.
