The only reason the wife isn’t dead is because she was on the phone with 911.
As an aside, if you want to be really sick, listen to that 911 call where the most moronic operators ever stall the wife and pretend they can’t understand her accent. Here in Tucson where almost all the jobs like that are bilingual and there are tons of Mexican accents.
I’ve heard it said, in comments somewhere that the kid
saved her life. They couldn’t explain away a dead child.
