They were both researching it because they weren't trying to prevent anything, they were trying to figure out how long it would take(which is sick).

That's why the husband went down at noon to see if the child was dead yet.

You can't possibly forget you have a child in the car seat when you just put that child in the car seat and than drove less than a mile to work. Not possible.

And as one poster pointed out, he backed into the parking space.

He had to have turned around to do that.

But what I don't understand is why they would have thought $27,000 was worth their child's life and a jail sentence (the father looked up how to survive in jail, so it's not like he was 100% convinced that he could get off). It's not like it was a 5 million dollar policy where the father would never have to work again. And if they had financial problems before, just imagine the legal fees.

Looking up how long it takes to die in a hot car (for preventative purposes) doesn't make any sense, at least to me. Any reasonably intelligent person is going to know it's going to be fatal, so what difference does it make how long it takes. That's like saying " Google said it takes 3 hrs for someone to die in a hot car, so I can leave my kid in the car for 2hrs & 45 min and be ok". No, any caring parent would not intentionally leave a child in a hot car for any length of time, so there's no reason to 'Google' the time factor unless you were going to do it on purpose.

I never look behind me when parking. I use my mirrors only.

When this SICK and TWISTED EVIL SCUM went to his car, opened the door and put light bulbs on the passenger seat on his lunch break, there would be NO way he did not smell his dead baby. By that time, the baby was cooked from the inside. Let me break it down how this poor poor baby suffered to death. Your internal organs start shutting down, you literally cook from the inside! Once dehydration sets in and the organs fail, the bladder goes too. The stool and urine comes out of the body as the body breaks down! Seizures happen, which is why the baby had scratches on his face and head! He was PANICKING!! Screaming! Calling out for his MOMMY and DADDY who he THOUGHT LOVED and CARED for him and they weren't COMING!!! These evil scum will ROT in hell! GOD knows what happened. That baby is in HEAVEN now. I truly believe this. These Evil scums of parents souls will ROT. I can only hope they die the same way to see what trauma it feels like! The mother is involved too. Her blank stares, her calm reaction about how her husband "must have left Cooper in the car" like it was no big deal! How she mentioned at her baby's funeral that she would not want him to come back to life! She had searches on her phone/computer as well on how long it would take to kill a baby in a car! Bottom line, there is NO WAY that sick father didn't smell the body of his son once he opened the door to the car. He was just looking to see if he was dead yet! UGH.. MAKES me SICK! I would like to throw him in a cell and beat the living crap out of him!!! AND HIS SICK WIFE.

i'm not sure if there is a death penalty in the state this happened but i hope there isn't and both get locked up with the general population for life. they will get a daily dose of justice everyday, and i wouldn't put it passed the guards to turn the other way in this case.

it seems there has been a huge influx of truly horrible crimes committed lately but this one stands out to me as the worst.

maybe because i'm a new father of a 3mo and could not imagine life without her now.

child molesters and abusers are the very low of the totem pole in prison. They will be dealt their own kind of justice there.

Look at them. You're talking about southern white trash, they're not the sharpest knives in the drawer. She said in the police station to him "did you say too much", he was telling family from jail to collect the insurance money(too stupid to know the insurance company isn't going to pay when you're going to trail).

They're evil, but they're not that bright.

Exactly, no reason to Google this.

Regardless, you would still look in the rear view mirror.

Besides he drove less than a mile with the boy in the car, after placing him in the car at the Chick Fil A, not possible to forget you did that on a drive that was less than five minutes.

I have a hard time with the concept that TWO people can get to this sort of a place in their thinking (assuming that the Mom is guilty as well). I understand (though obviously don't agree with) how one evil person cooks up some stupid plan, but how can two people both agree that something like this was an option worth following through on. It seems like as soon as the first person (mom or dad) voiced this plan that the other would serve as a moral check and balance and it wouldnt get carried out.

There are evil people in this world, but for two of them to meet, marry, bear children and mutually agree to torture and kill their baby is beyond imagination.
