Baltimore Man Leaves 2-Year-Old Daughter In Hot Car For 24 Hours A Baltimore man is in police custody now after leaving his 2-year-old daughter in his car while he drank and partied with friends on father’s day. The toddler died from exposure to high temperatures while closed inside the vehicle with the windows up from Sunday afternoon until the following day. Via MailOnline : A Baltimore man has been charged with homicide after police say he left his 2-year-old daughter strapped to her car sear inside his hot car for 24 hours while he went drinking. Wilbert Carter, 31, told police he went out drinking Sunday with friends as temperatures reached a scorching 89 degrees. He later went home alone at 7am. When he awoke Monday at 4pm, he realized his daughter Leasia Carter was missing. He found her unresponsive in his car, which was parked down the street. She was rushed to a local hospital, where she was pronounced dead after police say she sat in Carter vehicle with the windows rolled up for at least 24 hours. Raven Jenkins witnessed the horrific moment Carter discovered his daughter in the car. ‘He’s walking down the street. He’s crying,’ Jenkins told WBAL. ‘He’s got a little kid in his hand, a lady comes out of the house or walks out the street and they just start screaming.’ Carter told police he’d been drinking on Sunday, but was apparently unsure for how long or when he parted ways with his daughter. When questioned by police, Carter said he had sole custody of the little girl at the time of her death. He was charged Monday with child abuse and homicide. So sad. How do you manage to forget that you never dropped your child off with a sitter or family member? And especially with sole custody…who exactly did he think was putting the child to bed the night before and feeding her the next morning?
