Myrical Wicker, who was only eleven months old, had to die because an adult fell asleep. The baby and a dog were locked in a scorching hot car for around six hours with an outside temperature of around 30 degrees. US media reports on this.

Accordingly, Kristen Graham (40) was supposed to look following the child of a friend. On Tuesday around 8 a.m. she drove to her home with the little one. According to Yorktown, Virginia police, “Graham rolled up the car window, turned off the ignition and left the dog and child in the vehicle.” She then went into the house and fell asleep.

The accused is said to have woken up between 2 and 2:30 p.m. “She went outside to check on the child, who was already deceased at that point,” Sheriff Ron Montgomery said at a news conference.

Another two hours passed before an unidentified man in his 80s, with whom Kristen Graham lived under the same roof, drove with the body to a nearby emergency room. He told employees he had a dead child in the back seat. The police who were called found Myrical in a black garbage bag. The dog that remained in the car with the girl also did not survive.
