Hmm. There was a case in recent years of a dad who usually didn't take a child to daycare. One day he had to take on the responsibility, and in his usual morning routine, completely forgot he had a 3 year old in the carseat in the back. Kid baked to death while dad was at work.
Can you imagine what that must be like for the dad....he was yards away, all day....at any point he could have gone out and saved his child....but he simply forgot, because he never had to do it before....
I'm unsure how to feel about prosecuting a man like this.
Now people that know the kid is in the car and just "go in for a minute", that's another story.
