Yes, but the other chicco seats are 22lb Max. Do we know for a fact he was in the chicco key fit 30?
We don't know for a fact he was actually strapped into the car seat. He was on the pavement when police arrived at the scene.

I think he wasn't strapped in because it would be impossible with the straps in that position. The abrasions and scratches could be from not being strapped in. He was on the pavement when cops arrived.

:seeya:Pretty sure I read about this from one of the random reddit pages I was checking out. The father cried and had to be put on watch, crying constantly during the procedings. It doesn't excuse what he did, but I think living with the fact you neglected your child and let him essentially melt to death in a car over a period of 7 hours is something jail isn't necessary for.
What he should do is approve a vasectomy and be unable to adopt, possibly removing himself of child custody while he undergoes treatment. I have never had a friend with a child forget about their responsibility, but it's my opinion treatment should be the option along with never being allowed to be unsupervised with kids again. I couldn't imagine forgetting my child, but it appears to me he doesn't need jail to be miserable over what he has done, and I doubt that he ever forgives himself.
Ugh. I have to agree with this. They would know if they were post mortem or not. He was long dead when they removed him from the car.The scratches & abrasions were not post mortem from the pavement. Those physical signs were part of the data utilized by the ME in presenting the preliminary MOD as homicide. There is a huge visual difference in pre-mortem and post mortem injuries, especially on the face. More than likely they represent some of the desperate actions taken by this child during his gradual death.:tantrum:

right on believe!Hmm-I am not sure that is true. He showed very little emotion at the bail hearing, which had to be the longest bail hearing in the history of the US btw. Bio mom showed very little either except when sexting came up. His complete lack of appropriate emotion during the interview, the overwhelming smell of the vehicle, his investigation of hot car deaths, his sexting, the smaller tight car seat, the life insurance policies, his visit to his car in the middle of the day...these seem to be signs of premeditation and I have to believe if there is any chance at justice, bio dad will be doing serious jail time. As well as anyone else involved. To murder your child is appalling. To murder your child in such a way...there is little you can do imvho to prove that you should be permitted to have the freedom of society.

I know. My question, did we know for fact he was in a chicco key fit 30. Chicco has several infant seats.
IMO, you are certainly not unique in that, chlban. Even when I had just learned to drive -- I have never neglected to turn around to look out the back windshield when I back out of our driveway, back out of a parking slot, etc., etc. Always and until this day -- I don't trust my outside or rear view mirrors. I'm too afraid of backing into something or someone...Although I use my mirrors in traffic I always look behind me when backing up in a parking lot. There is just too much activity to keep track of because you not only have to worry about vehicles, but also pedestrians. Plus, it is safe to look behind you in a P.L. as you can stop your vehicle before doing so, something you cannot do on the freeway going 65 MPH.
I cannot imagine that I am unique in that.
