She should be lucky she didn't leave her dog in the car... Cops would have shot the dog and then charged her for animal cruelty

Who cares how long?

She was very responsive and the interior of the car was not excessively hot, though the outside temperature was 85 degrees.

The girl told police that she had asked her mother to stay in the car while she went inside. Her mother, Christina Williams, 30, corroborated the story.

Not long enough for the car to be "excessively hot"


The 11 y/o was fine and the car was "not excessively hot". Thus, ergo, prim faci, and ipso facto .....BOOM

We used to stay in the car by ourselves when we were that age, usually listening to the radio. We have collectively lost our minds as a society if anybody believes what this lady did to be a "crime."

the law is intended to cover more than hyperthermia.

I can play the hyperbole game too, bro. You are a dumbass if you think this 11 year old was in any immediate danger.
