Should The Father Whose Twins Died After He Left Them in a Hot Car for 8 Hours Serve Time?

In this episode, Ms. Rosensweig is discussing the tragic death of twin 1-year-olds who were left in a car for eight hours by their father who mistakenly thought he had dropped them off at daycare.  Was this a crime or an accident?  Does punishing the father with prison time make sense under the circumstances?  How could something like this happen?  Ms. Rosensweig discusses the psychology behind false memories and how one might genuinely believe their kids are not in the car when they are.  Ms. Rosensweig will also discuss legislation that is being proposed to necessitate that all cars be equipped with technology to prevent children from being left unintentionally in hot cars going forward.  If you have young children and want to understand how this could possibly happen and what you might do to prevent it from happening to you, this episode is worth a listen.
