You don’t need an MD degree to know that leaving a child or dog in a car in plus 100 degree weather is a death sentence.
I spent a few weeks in Az one summer and the steering wheel was always literally too hot to touch, entering the car outside, on any given day. Even a short trip to the grocery gave you that “burning hands reminder” when you got back in the car….
According to the texts, the child’s Mother knew he did this repeatedly. I find it interesting that he didn’t try to hide it…or he would have discovered the dead child. So he was well aware that there would be no consequences from his wife, no uproar, no impediment to HIS beer-swilling, game-playing existence…if she caught him at it again.
It seems now that HE is the victim. The hours of suffering of that baby in the distant past.
