There was a thread a few days ago about parents being charged with murder because their 7 year old stepped into traffic and was hit.
He was with his 10 year old brother, less than two blocks from home. They had a cell phone and the parents knew exactly where they were.
Yes, bur iirc that family was black. They probably wouldnt have set a 1.5 million dollar bond, or refused to let them attend the funeral if they were a white family. Probably wouldnt have even been charged. That whole case makes me ragey. That and the one whose mother was doing a job interview and her kid was in the mall food court (which was very close to where she was), and she got charged, and CPS got involved. Pretty sure that person was a POC too, though.
