INDIANAPOLIS -- An Indianapolis mother has been arrested, accused of leaving her children in a hot car and then beating a woman who stepped in to help, police said...

1. Who said Mom was right there? She was inside a grocery store.
2. There’s nothing to indicate the Mom was working at the store at the time of the incident.
A. The story states the windows were rolled up.
B. Does it matter?
C. Who the hell cares?!?!
On an 88 degree day, a car can heat up to 110 quickly. You’re as dumb as she is.
Would that include breaking a window to do so? I would, but would I then be charged with a crime?
It depends on how hot it is. If it is really hot, I’ll break a window.
After calling 911 I wouldn’t care. I’d gladly explain that in court.
We won’t even go into the Ditz trying to assault me.
Is it the deadbeat mom? The good Samaritan?
A CAPTION IS ALWAYS NICE.
When I did a google of her name, I got a hit on "Family says she is no monster" or something like that. They admit she made a mistake, but no harm done. Can we say Casey Anthony? I think we can.
***Try that in Arkansas, and you could spend 1-5 years in the state prison for a felony.***
Especially after some jerk and friend around Bella Vista AR left his kids in a car while they “went hunting arrowheads”. The children died in a most horrible fashion.
And when they eat their children the family will say the govt left her in the lurch because they didn’t help her.

It’s your wazoo aperture.
Except for beating up a woman who cared more about her kids than she did. But other than that no harm done.
“You’re as dumb as she is.”
What I am is an old guy who still remembers that some people struggle and barely get by in this world. Do I think it is ideal or even good to leave a 1 and 4 year old in a car alone in hot weather, of course not. Was the mother right out there when a stranger approached her kids, it seems so.
But I always error on the side of the parent not the state. So I want the facts, while you nanny state big government types want to immediately turn to government like you buds at Dim underground, etc.
Sorry, ain’t working.
I grew up in the south without air conditioning; I know what heat is. Yeah, I played outside in the summer with temps near 100 but I wasn’t closed up in a car. I was in the shade with a breeze blowing. Drove for years without A/C in the car. It was miserable with windows down and moving-unbearable with the windows up.
I’m not sure where you get that the mother was right out there when a stranger approached her kids. The article states that Elliott approached the mother as she exited the store. You have no way of knowing if Elliott had found the kids 30 seconds before or 10 minutes before. You’re assuming.
I err on the side of the child. Since 1998, an average of 37 children have died in the United States after being left in or becoming trapped in a hot vehicle. I’d rather have them alive than dead. And I changed my mind-you’re DUMBER than she is.
she sounds like a sociopath.....I am reading The Sociopath Nextdoor....it claims one in four is a sociopath....sounds like this mom....fist she has no regard for the safety and health of her children leaving them in a hot car unattended...second she assaulted the woman who pointed that out.....at no point does she feel any guilt or remorse...classic symptoms.
25% sounds way too high, though I believe as a society we are making more all of the time.
Not all turn into killers.....some are extremely successful biz men...others are the office bitch who lies and spreads havoc without doing much work at all.......there are all kinds......the husband who never works and let’s his wife support him......no conscience is the hallmark.
“I err on the side of the child.”
Nope you err on the side of the state taking children from parents. That is to coin a phrase hardly the spirit of liberty.
I certainly know broadly the data on children dying in cars, though I am surprised it is as few as 37 per year on average and I wonder how many of those are cases of a parent forgetting it was their day to take the kid to day care or school bus drivers failing to get all the kids off the bus. In the current case it appears to me the mother had her eye on the situation though while not ideal or even good, was maybe the best she could do that one day.
So I still err on the side of a parent working and trying to take care of their kids and not be a burden on the rest of us. That is the spirit of liberty, not a nannie calling for nannie state intervention whenever someone does not do things the way they would do it.
