A 2-year-old girl died in Holmes County, Florida, on Tuesday after being left unattended in her mother’s vehicle for 14 hours. This is the fourth time this year that a child has died after being left in a hot car in the United States.
The toddler’s parents, 23-year-old Kathreen Adams and 32-year-old Christopher McLean, have been charged with child neglect, possession of drug paraphernalia and possession of methamphetamine. However, according to law enforcement officials, more charges are forthcoming, pending the results of an autopsy that was performed Wednesday.
