A 3-year-old boy has tragically died after allegedly being left in a hot car for five hours while under the care of a state contractor in Alabama. The heat index that day was over 100 degrees. This child was supposed to be taken from a visit with his father to daycare, but instead, he was left strapped inside a car until the afternoon, where he was later found unresponsive. He never made it home.
This devastating loss highlights systemic failures in the Alabama Department of Human Resources, which is tasked with protecting children. Foster children are already at higher risk of harm, and this incident shows how oversight and accountability are urgently needed. Families trust the state to safeguard vulnerable children, not put them in danger.
