No worries, if you take it in the morning I'd like you to try to get the "perspective" he'd have. So you might really have to stand on something and walk along the car.

It would be even BETTER if you could video walking along side the car from his perspective, both in the morning and in the afternoon.

If you do this I owe you a million dollars!! :loveyou::loveyou:

I will try to get the video clearly. Hopefully I don't trip and break myself!

He is a full foot taller them me, so I can't quite get as tall as his perspective, but I can at least show how the perspective is different.

That appears to be a light blue Tucson parked under that tree. The reserved spaces you see in the front are the first row across the street from the building.

I saw that too! Thank you for posting it. I couldn't figure out how to do it!
 
Here is an aerial view of his office location. Notice there is a parking garage not too far away. And the location of the tucson in the parking lot on street view.

There's so much we don't know about the timeline leading up to Cooper's death. Including the couple of days before; however, at his funeral his mother stated that Cooper had slept with his parents the 2 previous nights. A little part of me wonders if somehow Cooper died the night before and the next day a cover-up or whatever ensued. There are increasing incidences of 'co-sleeping' deaths occurring in some states.

I really hate thinking of him dying in that back seat alone-probably desperately calling out 'Mama' or 'Daddy'.......
This is a tough case for all of us.
(Also I apologize for my (usual) unruly/rude behavior last time I posted. Can't seem to stay quiet when I need to)

I have taken ill since this case broke. I hope to God this wasn't deliberate on anyone's fault that Cooper is gone.

At first, this post made me think that could be entirely possible. But then I remembered that the COD was hypothermia and LE knows and has stated that Cooper was inside of Chikfila that morning and then strapped back into the car seat. And the car smelled very badly by 4:00 P.M. (And likely at noon) but we know for sure that it reeked at 4 o'clock.

Unfortunately, he was alive during his ordeal. And died a very cruel and tortuous death.

It's horrific.

Why is there not a kid in the car app? You put the kid in the car seat and then hit a button and it sends a message to your phone and reminds you every 10 mins until you shut it off when you arrive ?

I have never felt a need for an app for that but if such an app exists I would need to question why these very concerned/fearful parents would not be using it after having researched this very problem of heat death. Particularly if one or both are forgetful, absentminded, autistic or easily distracted as some have suggested Ross may be from day one.

My original opinion was the Chikfila stop was to make sure he arrived a few minutes later than his colleagues so that everyone would have gone upstairs. There was also rumor (although I don't know if substantiated) that he parked in a different spot than he normally did. If he did, all of this will come out at trial.

But then, iirc, we also thought his original plan was for Cooper to be discovered at noon. So that could explain it.

I have researched it. I have researched the topic more than once. And what temps are bad for kids in cars.

And for innocent reasons. So I don't buy the search is a sign of anything by itself.

What innocent reasons?

Why did you need to know what temperature was dangerous to leave a child in a car at?

OMG, tlcya, this post just smacked me right in the face--and hard!

You are so right! Ross was a techie, he surely would have known that such an app existed.

Another nail in his coffin IMO

I also see from the street at least it's only 2 stories.
I'm gonna go look at the back side.

Ive researched it many times and I did not know until now that there was some kind of app to help it not happen.

not that it matters a whole lot, but I found it interesting that after he put something in his car at lunch time, he re-entered his work place. I had assumed that he left for lunch after he did that ,
Click to expand...

thanks! So from the wording of the warrant it is unstated where he came from to go to the vehicle at "lunch". Which based on recent reports of him leaving the site of his office not in the vehicle it would seem safe to assume that he left the building at lunch, traveled by some means not his vehicle to somewhere off site for his lunch break, and on his return, he stopped by his car opened a driver's side door and placed something unnamed on his front passenger seat returning afterwards to his office for the afternoon.

In that sort of heat I am going to assume for the moment it was not his leftovers from lunch as who would put food into a car they would not be returning to for approximately four hours in that sort of heat.

Unless an excuse for a nasty smell was anticipated being needed for later in the afternoon . . .

And no, even I, as guilty as I feel this man is, do not believe for one second he visited the vehicle to put food in it so he could later have an excuse for what he thought a smell was being caused by.

That was suggested tongue in cheek.

Like me? That is my point. I did not know until now and I have researched it many times in the past and then while this case has been going in the last weeks or so and still did not know about the app until right now.

I think there is only one logical reason they both researched it: one was doing it or had done it and the other was against it. iow, to prove a point; to prove the other person wrong.

Pretty obvious to me which one was for it and which one was against it.

That would make sense and be a good defense strategy if mom was not so supportive of him. Her statement that she is not mad at him and that hadn't even crossed her mind nullifies this theory in my mind though because if she was against it and they had these internet search wars wouldn't she be furious that she warned him and he did it anyway and now her son was gone because of it?

I think he said yes... sorry I have my grand-dog starting today for 4 months! and a bit of a tussle broke out over a bone :floorlaugh:

"The wealthy do, it turns out. And the poor, and the middle class. Parents of all ages and ethnicities do it. Mothers are just as likely to do it as fathers. It happens to the chronically absent-minded and to the fanatically organized, to the college-educated and to the marginally literate. In the last 10 years, it has happened to a dentist. A postal clerk. A social worker. A police officer. An accountant. A soldier. A paralegal. An electrician. A Protestant clergyman. A rabbinical student. A nurse. A construction worker. An assistant principal. It happened to a mental health counselor, a college professor and a pizza chef. It happened to a pediatrician. It happened to a rocket scientist."

"ccording to statistics compiled by a national childs’ safety advocacy group, in about 40 percent of cases authorities examine the evidence, determine that the child’s death was a terrible accident -- a mistake of memory that delivers a lifelong sentence of guilt far greater than any a judge or jury could mete out -- and file no charges."

Only 40% are determined to be accidental? What about the other 60%?
 
In the picture of the map, if you look to the right of the Red Arrow next to where it says Treehouse you can see a row of isolated parking spots, I wonder if he parked there?
