Last year we heard one of the most egregious stories of a parent leaving their child in the hot car. Per a shocking criminal complaint, Christopher Scholtes claimed he left his 2-year-old daughter in the car after getting home to avoid waking her up. But what he said was just 30 minutes was estimated by authorities to be THREE HOURS. Outside in the Arizona heat. The temperature peaked in the area at 120 degrees that day. Dear lord... Scholtes reportedly got on his Playstation while putting away groceries and just forgot his daughter Parker.
