Having your children die like that must be truly horrible, which is why the parents probably can't bear to acknowledge that it is their fault for their negligent supervision of those children and for not looking in the trunk themselves, especially if it is true as someone said here on the thread that they had played in the car here. I do not know in the police seach of the car was thorough enough or not but they did not cause this tragedy, the parents did.
By the way, something is wrong with this whole storyline. If the kids were conscious when the police searched the vehicle, they would have heard the cops even if the cops didn't open the trunk. You would think the kids could have made enough noise to be noticed. Same thing if the parents really were searching the area before they called the police. The only way this accidental death explanation makes any sense would be if the kids were unsupervised long enought to get locked in the trunk and then become unconcious before anyone even started looking. If that is the case, then whoever was supervising them that day is lucky they are not up on negligent homicide charges.
If it wasn't for the sloppiness of the police, the boys would be alive.
Yes, the parents are also at fault.
But once the police show up and start searching, they kind of take over responsibility.
Example..........
Police: "We need all the parents in the next room for questioning."
Parents: "No, I am going out to search the yard for the kids."
Police: "We already searched the yard. We need you in the other room for questioning. And we need you there now."
