I know one time I ended up on some page that had dozens of people writing about their experiences of leaving their children in hot cars. There's an official page or organization dealing with this topic.

What then if I had a horrible brain-lapse and did the same thing? Am I now for sure a murderer? Things sure don't look or sound good in this particular story but it doesn't all guarantee this was done on purpose. Maybe the father was a very absent-minded person and he was prone to forgetting things?

I haven't seen the timeline yet that says they were recently researching it? Only that they had.

From what I understand there has been an ad campaign in Atlanta called "Look Again" which I'm sure has led many parents in the Atlanta area to research this.

What I would like to know before jumping to conclusions is exactly when and what was seached for. If they both searched "How long until a baby dies in a car" or something along those lines it would lead me to believe much more that it was premeditated. Unless some other facts come out about this case I still believe it to be an accident.

If it is revealed that the parents were having trouble with the child or that he was diagnosed with some sort of issue like autism I'm not going to be at all surprised.

Maybe all of this is just media stirring up shite but it's not looking good.

He should be sentenced to a vasectomy so not another dollar of taxpayer money is spent in this case.

I think the dumbest thing is that with all the advertising billboards around Atlanta, and with both parents looking it up in the internet, THAT THE MOTHER DID NOT TEXT THE FATHER SOMETIME DURING EVERY WORKDAY "CHECK TO SEE THAT OUR WORLD IS NOT STILL IN CAR"

Can you explain with them both being aware that this could happen that they did not communicate once every workday "make sure our son doesn't become a statistic"

It would be different if they hadn't both looked it up online.

With all the advertising going around every employer in Atlanta will allow personal conversation for this, because it is a public service to keep this tragedy from occurring in our society. Business will get goodwill from the community for being proactive about employees having personal communication because this is important enough for the public.

How do you know when it was researched or why? Maybe it was for awareness and not intent. How do you know the father didn't search on the mothers computer also?

I am playing devils advocate..,searching something like this may or may not be a terrible coincidence.

To simply take the fact that their child died in a car and they had researched it will NOT get a conviction.

I think it depends on what exactly was searched as well.

I also read the linked article in this thread explaining how these deaths occur from being on autopilot combined with other factors. In no way does that mean I would kill my child.

However, the facts in this case do not seem to indicate a "typical" child-forgotten-in-car situation. If the parents were searching specifically for information on how long it takes to die in a hot car, that's pretty damning.

Considering all the information that is coming out now, Mom's not looking so innocent herself. I guess time will tell as more information becomes available.

I agree. I am just hopeful it was an accident even though I don't believe it is. Also if it was premeditated I'm hoping they both weren't in on it. Wtf is wrong with people.

there are public service billboards all over town with that on there?

kind of makes the internet search seem more reasonable.

And it also makes the fact they should have texted each other once a workday reasonable. If there has NEVER been one text between them about this after they had both searched in the internet, then both should be arrested.

I don't really agree cause that is a pretty over the top leap, but it would certainly would be a great idea for everyone to have a reminder on their phone for 9:10, just after they get to work that says "where is your Sally" or whatever.

Once again. Stupid.

I think they are guilty piece of shits but your reasoning is so stupid. You apparently don't understand the law or how the judicial system works. You can't put them in jail because they didn't text each other during the day. Stop being so stupid, please. I'm trying to drink my beer.
