If my child died while under the care of my parent, I would never entrust another child in that parent's care again. This is so tragic.
I have to agree. Even if it was an accident, I could never trust them again to watch a child. You don't babysit if you're taking sleeping pills when a child needs to be watched 24/7. Grandfather left the house while she was napping with the first death. If you know there's a kid in your house and the babysitter is asleep, why leave the house? It takes a village. Maybe there's dementia going on and no one is addressing it. Should the daughter ever leave a third child in their care and anything happens, you cannot convince me this is coincidence.
Exactly, she was not fit to be babysitting
My exact sentiment!
@@laughinghawk8522right it does not make sense!
@@ninarobertssalveson6326 it would be best for all involved if she never babysat again and the grandmother should be the first to agree with that
Why would you leave your babies in the care of a person who seems to forget they exist
She didn’t even remember the baby while thinking about her other grand child coming soon to visit the home.
Do make any sense 😢
She doesn't even seem remorseful
He's a POS ! He knows his wife is suffering from dementia and he didn't give AF and neither did the daughter! If he was a REAL man and not an abusive F he would take responsibility
He has been well coached
I don't understand why the baby was in her care after the first child died due to grandmas negligence!😮😮😮
Because the daughter needed 'me' time at the drop of a hat!
The jury won’t hear about this though
Maybe the fact the DA told the parents that under Florida law the child’s death wasn’t a crime swayed mom. Personally nothing would have persuaded me to leave one of m precious children in the care of someone so clearly negligent. Neither grandparent seems to accept that grandmother has any responsibility for the deaths. I really can’t get my head around it.
@@loriduffecy9205 yes the mum and dad is responsible to
Ne
The daughter insisted she always took the baby to work then took her home before lunch time to nap in her own crib at home. She then said it was unusual for her to be asking her mother to look after Uriel in the afternoon? Grandpa just took the stand and said either he or his wife picked up the child 3-5 times a week and took her to their house for the afternoon? That’s a complete contradiction.
I noticed that too. Would like to know the truth.
I thought so as well. But Grandpa was always there at home from what I understand.
Seemed like Mom lied on the stand. She never mentioned that her parents watched the baby 2-5 times a week.
Mom needs to take responsibility for her decisions. It seems like many young parents expect their parents to give up their golden years . we took care of our kids ! They should take of their kids. Visits with grandkids then off they go to mom and dad.
I just wrote the same thing
"The child "
What a cold way to describe your precious, now deceased grandbaby
Exactly!
@@sugargold4126 boomers care more about their dogs than their own grandchildren
She's not " the child".
She is Uriel.
I thougt the same
No feelings
Netherlands
When he said that, I immediately clicked on the contents. He has complete emotional separation from Uri. He also referred to his son in law as "Her father. Drew."
The mother said she only asked Grandma on that day because she had a hair appointment. So, why didn’t she retrieve her child after the hair appointment? Instead, she went home and let Grandma take care of her baby the rest of the afternoon. There’s a pattern there. Grandpa exposed that pattern.
Agree!!! After a 75 minute hair appointment, I personally would rush to pick up my baby.
Exactly, grandpa stated he or Tracy picked the baby up several days a week to take back to their house till the husband picked her up after 5pm. The mother made out she took her own baby home every day in time for a nap in her own crib and asking the grandmother to come get her from the office was almost a one off? She also said the hairdresser was super close to the restaurant so she’d be close by. If that was the case, why didn’t she pick the baby up from the restaurant or have Tracy bring the baby to the hairdresser if she was done with lunch before the hair appt was finished so she could take her own baby home?
Tracy said in the interview with police that the week prior she watched baby 4x that week. Truly devastating.
Right 😮
I'm just catching up on this case and pardon my ignorance for details but did I not hear the Mom say she rarely asked her Mom to look after the kids that she always had them with her. That she usually took them with her to her appointments - yet her father just said they baby was with her 3-5 days a week?? Something definitely off with this whole situation.
This whole family is weird. Why did the daughter allow her mother to baby sit the second child after what happened to the first child that died under granny’s care?! Grandad seems a bit odd, too. And the gum smacking sister shows up like a defiant high school kid for detention. Very strange dysfunctional brood. Wouldn’t want any of ‘em for neighbors.⚠️
Has to be investigated
She stated that she wanted to give her Mom another chance. 🤷🏼♀️💔
@emilymurcar6388 Weird. You'd give her a second chance cooking dinner not caring for your child.🤔
@@aussiemouth747 Well said!
This is a very weird case and I'm blaming everyone.
As a first-time grandmother, safety concerns have always been a source of apprehension for me. To address these concerns, I have adopted several precautionary measures. My Subaru is fitted with a backseat passenger alarm that remains active until the rear door is opened. Moreover, our lakefront residence features a comprehensive safety system, including alarms, child locks, and water immersion sensors that trigger a loud alarm audible throughout the neighborhood in the event of an emergency.
This is the second grandchild that has died due to her neglect 💯Guilty !
I like your style. Very smart. Every parent should have this too (speaking as a parent of babies myself).
Wait..what? This is the 2nd child that died in her car? What?
@@joyceperciballi295No not in the car, the other child found a way out of the house while grandma was sleeping and drowned.
@Pudef9 wow
My parents became first time grandparents at ages 67. They did the same thing and ensured their home was safe.
Also, they took care of the twin boys (yes twin boys) during short periods as both had some health issues that would have prevented them from taking care of them over long periods as toddlers.
Once the boys got older like 5, they made sure everything was safe, including when Grandma made yummy baked goodies they loved.
I just don’t understand why the grandfather didn’t enquire about where their granddaughter was once the grandmother came home?
My father would have at least said to my Mother “Oh so did you drop the boys off ?”
Another thing: with the first grandson drowning, which happened less than a year previous (if you can believe that!) why did the grandmother get in her car and drive around? Perhaps it was to get a better look at the pond behind their house?
If a drowning happened the year previous, any grandmother would take extra precautions to make sure the child was safe.
My heart literally breaks for the parents, especially the Mom. She’s lost her Mother and potentially Father in this as well.
It’s just horrible!
How this grandma lives with herself knowing that she is responsible for the deaths of two of her grandchildren?
two?
@@planetmarieUriel's brother drowned while with the grandmother
@@planetmarie yes, another grandchild died under her care. In December of 2021 another grandchild, Ezra, died after opening a door, wandering outside and drowning in a pond.
@@planetmarie The brother of this baby died when he got out of the house and drowned. He was 16 months. Granny was napping.
Wow. I didnt know that. Then trusted her again, gave a second chance . Wow
The parents should have not left their child with a grandmother who already was carless, neglectful , and endangered their 18 month old son. They are responsible for their children well being!!! The grandmother should be evaluated for dementia or Alzheimer’s?
😢what are the post it notes in front of Mrs. NIX?
Exactly.
The mother of the first death ess probably told by church people to FORGIVE MOTHER for the ACCIDENT
They probably thought that the first time was really an accident unfortunately. This grandma has a body count and she needs to get the max.
I don't know eveything about this case but my big question is how much time the grandparents were expected to babysit their grandchildren.....The mom says she took her kids to work most days and the grandparents are saying they minded different grandchildren A LOT. People need to not put so much pressure on grandparents to be free childcare. They get confused and it happens a lot.
Hey I'm a grandparent of 3 and I watch any and everytime when asked...thats what I'm here for
The grandparents could have said no
That's not why you're here for. You are doing it because you want to. It's not your job to raise your kids' children. It's a lot of work and a very big responsibility. I have never left my children with their grandparents.@@Smag-wm4bx
So right
Yes free childcare
The grandmother and grandfathers reaction, and her mug shot, where she is smirking, is bizarre. Unfeeling.
They both appear demented.
Right. Grandpa refers to his grand baby as “the child” and he “delivers” her. F*cking coldhearted
It's a classic Karen look
Its called Meds… Dr testified grandma was taking several medication that caused her odd behavior
I am a grand grandmother and great grandmother, I have had many babies in my car and one point in time I had forgotten a grandbaby in the back of my car. It wasn’t hot nor was it cold and it wasn’t but for a few minutes, but I did forget people, our agehave memory lapses has nothing to do with how much you love that child has to do with a memory lapse, I’m not excusing her. I’m just saying younger people don’t realize that they don’t understand that and if she already had one child die in her care, I would not let her watch another child, plain and simple.
Young people forget children in their care as well.
@@sandyhillhouse4793 I think if you have memory issues, especially after a first child dies in your care- you decline to watch children moving forward. Once was an accident. Twice is not.
And it has been stated that they watched this baby several times a week! SMH!!!
Exactly 💯
@seekinggodfirst754 came here to say same thing. Our brains have a way of going on autopilot especially when driving. This happened to quite a few parents, unfortunately. Thats why car manufacturers are making changes to help prevent. Its truly tragic.
Sickening to know negligence killed your baby and yet your parents think ‘I forgot’ is an excuse in law
Two grandchildren died in her ‘care’.
Is there another issue? Dementia or TBI?
or alcoholic mush, brain or a combination!!??😡
How true 👍 😢
IT IS CALLED DEMENTIA! Learn about it!
It doesn’t matter if they couldn’t see the baby’s carseat. You NEVER make the child your second thought! That baby should ALWAYS remain your FIRST Priority! No matter what! How does a grandma forget she has her grandbaby in her care?
It matters, but it isn't in their favor because it should have been on the other side where she was easier to see. It was a thoughtless choice to put the seat there.
This is why I think tinted windows are so bad. Wish they showed a pic of where the car was parked. This trial is so half-assed. The times of major incidents seem to be excluded as well.
@@krisniznik3953Agreed, and I never heard WHO installed it there.
I hear your point, but have seen multiple psychologists testify in other car death cases that regardless of age, when routine is disrupted, and there are multiple distractions, our minds can do that. IMO, the first grandchild’s loss is much more baffling. As a Nana myself, who provides childcare A LOT, I cannot imagine ever falling asleep, no matter how tired, when they’re with me.
@ I read somewhere that she took an Ambien or something similar, which makes it even worse.
I thought the daughter stated in her testimony that she took her kids to work most days.
He is stating 2-5 days a week. That is a lot.
Yes, I agree. That’s too much for grandparents. In addition, they took care of the other daughter’s child. I believe in Grandma’s mind, she finally had the day off from babysitting and would have a normal morning except for taking the grandson shopping later on. It’s easy to imagine there were too many distractions that day.
yes , im confused now .
@@orcuttcatme too I thought mother took child to work with her every day ??????
Yes she did. She also said she never gets a babysitter for herself. That having her mom watch her was a rare one time thing.
@@tanyasmith5883 granny didn't have any problems taking care of her mutt. Her mutt was with her while she was "sleeping" when the boy drowned and she was too busy playing with her dog in the air conditioned house while her granddaughter cooked. These boomer feminist women care more about dogs than their own flesh and blood
What mother wouldn’t just plead guilty and spare the ENTIRE family especially the parents all of this misery? She is horrible and she should have been charged with murder and put both deaths together.
That’s what I said Pure Evil 😢😢😢😢😢😢
How would the jury feel if they knew this was the second death. It’s really a crazy trial.
@@SandiNurnbergerExcellent point.
As a grandmother of 7, they wouldn’t have to have a trial for me….. I couldn’t live with myself …….end of story 🙏
@ You sound very decent and have backbone. Excellent comment. Thanks.
Did the grandfather not know his wife was babysitting. This makes no sense
I see that she prays every day. All of these Bible studies are not worth anything if you cannot take responsibility for the deaths of the two of your own grandkids. Unbelievable!
Both grandparents are so detached.....it gives me sheevers.
Putting grandma in jail for forgetting she had her granddaughter isn't going to serve any purpose. The baby isn't coming back, and grandma's natural age-progression cognitive forgetfulness won't get any better behind bars.
I think there’s something weird about the mother. Even if you thought it was an accident with your first child who would leave the next child with the grandmother again? If the grandmother was negligent how is the mother not negligent for doing that? Wouldn’t a reasonable person not leave your child alone with the person responsible for the death of your first child? Also in an interview both the mother and father said they didn’t trust the grandmother; then why leave your child with her again? This wasn’t an emergency. It was a hair appointment and in her testimony the mother said she always took her kids with her to appointments usually. So why not take the child that day? She made it sound like the grandmother hardly ever watched her daughter and the grandmother said she watched her on a weekly basis. There’s something very strange here.
@@_Sakidora_ I totally agree! The mother of the baby was almost asking for it. Talk about inviting trouble! This entire family is really weird.
And she has since had another baby! Crazy.
I totally agree. Mom was the negligent one.
I thought the same. I wonder if she’s the biological mother?
I just know if my mom would babysit and it would happen to her, she would never forgive herself
That grandma seems sooo cold, I don’t see much crying, also the grandma. Calling it, the child .
It’s just a weird feeling I have.
@ So agree!🐕
This trial confounds me. It is way too calm. Softball questions.
The mum and dad reacts strangely
After the death of 1st grandchild, idk if I could be around her. I would have lost all respect. Now a 2nd baby dies under her care. I can't imagine what this man is feeling.
@@m.leewebster79 donwe know how old the other grandchild was
He seems weird too. They're all strange.
Why? Why! Has she allowed this to go to trial? Is she so cold that she can't even spare her daughter and SIL the horror of having to sit through days of testimony? And then to refuse to testify herself when she knows full well she owes her family answers. To have taken one of their precious babies once is just horrifying, but a second time?? I can't image the pain they are going through.
THEY'RE JUST AS BAD !!!!!!!
The parents are just as culpable in my opinion. They all seem devoid of reality.
That’s what I don’t get. She could have avoided going to trial for manslaughter if she just plead guilty to the first charge. The mother stated all she wanted was accountability. Also, 4 hours leaving the child in a hot car. How did she forget if this was a routine to watch the child. I’m honestly more inclined to believe that the this was not a routine thing.
Question: why can’t the jury know about the prior death with the other grandchild? Seems significant enough.
Because she was found not guilty
@@cg9616 I thought she was never charged at all in the first incident?
The defendant was never charged with a crime in the other death. They say it is prejudicial to the jury.
They didn't find her negligent in the first grandchild's death due to getting outside the house and drowning because she fell asleep.
@@celiamiller9984she was still negligent
I thought it odd that the babies car seat was fastened behind the drivers seat. I always had my babies car seat behind the passenger side so I could see them in rear view mirror. This lady wouldn't have forgotten the poor baby if she was seeing her everytime she looked in rear view mirror. Absolute tragedy 😢
Shes the cause of two grandchildrens death
She took Uri to a lunch with friends and played with her there before going home??? Not like she put her in the car and drove home forgetting!
@Outnabout-gf3nx the friends should have reacted to. They are just covering for her. She didnt wanna watch her grandkids
@Outnabout-gf3nx trying to give uri water with a straw and the frien thought it was cute??
@Flowerpot24 In Australia it's the law to put the seat behind the front passenger seat as it's also the kerbside (sidewalk) side. Mak3s sense as it's easier to see in rear view mirror & extract baby from car, not with your door open facing oncoming traffic.
WTF. This guy described his granddaughter as "the child" while testifying. Serious red flags
What do u know about flags??? Miss know it all...
@@GinaLopez-w1xit's called an opinion and it's allowed get over it
He may have been encouraged to use that type of language by an attorney. . . . you never know.
🤷♀️🤷🤷♂️
Right! I said the same thing! “The child”… talk about distancing yourself. Cold, ice cold grandparents
@@GinaLopez-w1xhow are you to judge a strangers knowledge and experience? Seems like you’re the know it all
This is beyond horrific. She killed two kids!
Two kids 😢😢
Two children died in her care.
What about Justice for the precious baby killed! Grandparents seem cold. Why the heck did the daughter, mother of her baby, continue to allow these Grandparents to keep her children??
Maybe because when the son died they truly believed it was an accident. Leaving a child in a car is obviously negligence.
@@tracybarber8961it was also negligent to fall asleep while caring for a child who is able to let himself out of the house.
@@tracybarber8961Maybe it was an accident, but why take the chance with another child's life?
How in the world did she not get found guilty?! This is the second child who died in her care….
I can't imagine how the daughter is feeling? I can't relate to losing a child and I pray I never experience that pain. She and her husband not only lost their first born son but now her first born daughter, due to her mother's negligence. I don't know if I could find forgiveness for my mother in a case like this. My condolences go to the mother and father of those two beautiful children, I'm so sorry for your loss. 🙏 ❤❤
And than make her family go thru a trial and relive this nightmare? I’ll never understand why Tracy didn’t plead guilty and face her consequences.
The daughter shouldn’t have more kids if she couldn’t stay home and take care of them or find a responsible/reliable baby sitter. Even more so after the first child died in her mother’s care. Why let her take care of the 2nd baby? The grandmother should have been extra focus on the 2nd baby after the first baby died in her care. The only people I feel sorry for are the children. Sad!!
They didn’t lose their first born son. He is around 5 now & lives at home. The grandma was negligent in their 16 month old grandsons death & then URI’s death & now the parents have gone on & have another daughter. So they have their 5 year old & the baby girl now.
@@SusanH5390 how did first baby die
@@joyceperciballi295 they have a son who is 5 now, then they had a 16 month old that drowned in Tracey’s care. Tracey & her husband were watching him & the husband left to go to run errands. Tracey was awake at the time he left & Ezra had fallen asleep. Tracey then fell asleep & the baby boy woke up & got out of the house, wandered to their pond & drowned. Tracey was not charged in his death by the prosecutors as it was ruled an “accident.” Even though the police tried pressing charges.
I personally think that the parents seem odd. The grandparents seem odd. The truth of the first death was the grandfather fault. Grandma took medicine that makes her drowsy. Grandpa was home at the time grandma decide to go lay down. Grandma fell asleep. Grandpa decided to leave and left his grandson unattended. Why are we only blaming grandma? Why is grandpa calling his grand daughter…”the child”. I don’t understand the distancing.
He stated in the incident report she was awake. She was the one who originally said she was asleep. She later said she fell asleep at some point after he left.
She also said she took her medicine at night and usually woke up feeling refreshed. She couldn’t explain why she was tired that day after 12+ hours of sleep that night.
Oh, I never heard Grandfather was there!
So he is a very responsible man. He always remembers to take the little girl out of the car. But the moment the grandmother has to deal with a little bit more responsibility by driving the little girl she completely screws up and leaves the baby in a hot car to die. Horrible woman. This is the second grandchild she is responsible for dying in less than a year.
Even more sad is how the jury’s not allowed to know it
Agree
She was a principal too.
@@Psychiatricnerd Who lost that job because she was forgetful
I don’t think either are accidental.
Is it possible that the grandmother has undiagnosed dementia?
I think she definitely does
VERY possible, that was my FIRST thought...my second thought was, after 25 yrs of being principal and dealing with kids, she was likely FED UP with kids, and borderline resentful of having to babysit endless hours, so she accidently on purpose failed to monitor them.
Plus she on a several different kinds of medication... A muscle relaxant, another for depression and one for insomnia… Dr said the adverse reaction was cause of her odd behavior… I think all of the family are on meds, they have very odd behavior, not normal thinking... Poor kids
@@barbarahocepied5031 people are so clueless here about mental health and cognitive disease, They like to think everything is criminal or dope.
That’s what I suspect. This is out of character for a former principal. I hope the defense had her tested.
This is the SECOND child this woman has been in charge of that passed. The other drowned but they can't bring that info into court....
It will likely be admissible at sentencing.
What a waste of money they seem to all defend her. 😮😮😮 even mother and dad mmm
I'm sorry, but I blame the mother and father over the grandma. The grandma obviously had something cognitive going on. She was fired from her job for negligence, a toddler wandered off while in her care, and now this.
What I don’t get is why the lawyers never explored her cognitive abilities.
It is a miracle that their own children survived until adulthood.This man and woman are neglectful nonchalant and clueless about what is going on around them.....super irritating. I feel very sorry for their poor daughter and son in law.
Honestly, daughter said this was not a routine thing for her to drop the parents off, and it was the first time they watched Yuri since Ezra died. I’m more inclined to believe her because if this was a routine how do you forget that you are watching your grandchild for several hours.
Something abought this woman ,???
I can’t really put my finger on it, but feel like the grandparents don’t like their own daughter. There’s something we don’t know about. There is no way it’s just a tragic coincidence that TWO of your grandkids die under your watch.
She wouldn't have looked after them half the week if she didn't like her daughter ,would she.
I believe the parents should have some responsibility for this
Definitely
Why is Grandpa not also charged?
I think the grandma hates her daughter. Two children? I would be the one going to jail
I have heard that whomever is driving the child, anytime there is a carseat in the back seat that the driver should take off one of their shoes and put it near the car seat. When they get out of the car they will notice one shoe is missing and they will remember it is in the back with the baby. Especially if one parent normally drives the child to daycare and the other parent for some reason does it instead. They are out of their normal routine and sometimes forget the babies. Not an excuse but just what i've read about it all. I am surprised that there aren't apps or alarms that manufacturers haven't discovered to alert the driver that there is a baby in the back or a pet.
My daughters chevy has the alert. I raised 6 kids & have 10 grown grands & never forgot them. Even my dog I never forgot.
Better safe than sorry
Thats really sad though you have to take a shoe off to remember your kid . I've taken my dogs with me and they are the first to get out.
@@sandyblue4235 I am not saying everyone needs that but if that is all it takes to remember your pet or infant in the back seat what is the harm. It is free and smart.
And she won’t TESTIFY!!!!!! Tell the truth ….. the whole truth …. And
Nothing but the truth !!!! What are you hiding ?? This poor baby 😢😮😮
I think she new exactly what she did. She sure seems to have a issue with her daughter. Mind of a very troubled mother. I think she has it out for her daughter.
This is so heartbreaking
She seems cocky and refused to testify! That means something because if it was accident, then grandma would be shouting it from the rooftops
not really. it's hard testifying-if she cries, they say it is alligator tears. if she is serious, they say she isn't upset enough. etc. etc.
Most defence lawyers say not to have your client take the stand unless absolutely necessary, like giving evidence they can’t get in any other way or something. She cannot legally have it held against her that she doesn’t testify. She will be taking her lawyer’s advice.
Something is not right here
I really feel for these people, but why on earth would you let your mother watch your child again after what happened to your first child? She’s obviously not capable of watching them.
She is so heartless
she did all this and didn’t testify?!?!
Parents need to raise their own kids, not rely on grandparents!
So if the parents have to work for a living they still need to rely on some sort of childcare. Most people would prefer their children be with a family member rather then a stranger at a daycare. Obviously this situation is a bit different given the first child's death.
I would never leave my kids with a 60 year old granny who forgets to take her own medication. Grandparents shouldn't raise your children.
@@KristinHall0918At least at Daycare you have many eyes watching every child.
@ as a grandma, I’m saying - do not rely on grandparents, we are tired, forgetful and already raised our kids. Yes, stepping in on occasion is great, but to rely on your parents to raise your own kids is putting a huge burden on grandparents. In this case, clearly after the loss of one child, they put this child in danger as well. Maybe grandma has early dementia….
She could have admitted her fault and not make this disturbing trial take place
The parents wanted free childcare so they dismissed the death of the first child. The grandmother was known to take medication that could impare her judgement and her cognition. Everyone in the family should have said "no" to that childcare arrangement. Grandpa was complicit in the death of the first child. Grandma was asleep and Grandpa left the first baby in the home with sleeping grandma. So many issues-not just grandma.
So I'm guessing GMA was zonked out on pills while lil boy drowned and again Kool koo on pills while lil girl dies in hot car!OMG so this family knows she can't take care of a baby!&the baby's Mom lied GMA had been babysitting this lil girl 4days a week when she claimed it was only the day of hair apt so it's as much her own fault as the GMA who kill her rite!
I truly think the entire family is on those meds… Dr said she behaved odd due to the adverse reaction combined by all the meds she was taking... Its like theyre not thinking!! Just reacting
@@melb2258agree
He was outside and never heard a baby screaming?
If the windows are up, and it sounds like a large property, he didn’t know she had picked up/brought baby home (according to other testimonies), hearing loss as one ages…
@@heliumfiasco This is all so very suspicious! These grandparents are awful. And weird!
Evil evil evil 😡😡😡
Why did the mother say the grandma never watched her kid? She trans her to work each and every day and this was a one time thing and she only did it because the restaurant was close to the hair salon? She said she takes the kid to work with her every day even. Now grandpa is saying they had the baby half the week
Maybe they're thinking about the other dead baby
@jupo9928 no, grandpa was talking about Urie
Grandma said she had the baby 4 out of 5 days the week before
@ yeah but the mom said the grandmother never watched her. That this was a rare occurrence and only happened because the salon was nearby to the restaurant
@@Persianprincess834 I’m more inclined to believe that. Because if this was a routine how do you forget that your grandchild is in the car? Makes no sense.
Maybe Granny is passive-aggressive with her daughters. Always agreeable, but in private, seething about all that she has to do. Kinda a subconscious thing. She’s dangerous. She seems eat up with the younger daughters kids but the older one-- it’s a chore. Never would I have left my 7 mo old daughter with this woman. My hair appt wouldn’t have mattered.
i think you are correct. pleasantly correct in public or on the surface, but unable to say NO when she really wants to, so she inwardly seethes....
I wonder if she has some sort of underlying hostility toward her daughter that she does not have toward the other daughter
Whenever I saw my grandparents it was a family event. My parents never left my sister or I at my grandparents for them to babysit while they went places. Kids today have the children, then use the grandparents as daycare providers.
This grandmother was on many medications and not capable of babysitting grandchildren. The grandfather just stated they watched grandchildren 3-5 times a week. They are retired, in their golden years and should not be burdened with raising grandkids. Grandma had to take naps due to medications she took.
This is so heartbreaking for all involved.
Did your mother work?
Nahhhh something is off here. What are th odds for both babies died in her custody??
This was done deliberately imo.
What grandmother refers to her grandchild as "the child"? No emotions or remorse at all.
She is evil.
My heart breaks for those parents!💔
I hope this trial doesn’t go on for too long because they are in serious excruciating pain.
But didn’t he wonder, or ask his wife where’s the baby if she was in the house and he was in the house, he never asked surly he know she was babysitting that day!
He didn’t know because it was last minute.
I wonder how they’re kids made it to grow up and not be unalived with them as parents 🤦🏽♀️
There is something not right with Grandma. Lawyer advises her not to testify. Probably because it would prove she’s incompetent.
I would think that the dad (grandpa) would have been more culpable in the drowning death of baby Ezra since he knew his wife was taking a nap and he knew the baby was in their care and he chose to leave and do errands!?!?!?
Im wondering if the grandmother liked the 'idea' of Grandkids, but the moment she had to put any effort into their care - it was too much. Mom should have denied her unsupervised contact after the first death.
This guy should be charged with premeditated, first degree intentional felony lying.
What??
Obviously you remember Yuri but the grandma sure didn’t 😢
During the work week, I cared for all 3 of my grandkids from age 3 months to time they started Pre-K, while their parents worked. Not once did I ever forget they were in their car seats after taking them to the parks or elsewhere. They were the first thing on my mind, taking them out of my car! How in God's name could you forget a child for hours or even minutes! After the first child's death, why did they allow the grandmother to care for the other child that also died in her care!🙄
I’m sure you did a fine job raising your grandchildren, but that is such a shame that your child and their spouse would just drop off their kid to you all day long so that they could work. How incredibly selfish they are. And shame on you for not speaking up.
Nappy bags, bottles, wipes, extra clothes, blankets, toys and so it goes on… a grandmother’s role is to enjoy her grandchildren and then to ‘give them back’! Why is it a given that grandparents are substitutes and free childcares? This grandmother, who deserved to live the rest of her life without the huge responsibility of caring for small children, is now doomed to suffer.
And the daughter ‘forgave’ her eventually after the last child died. Why would you ever give another child to your mother to care for? Clearly she was not up to the task. THAT is unforgivable.
As a Grandmother, to me, 'suffering' would be to NOT have regular contact with my Grandchild. Some of us LOVE our Grandbabies and love our time with them.
A baby should be top priority to parents. You just have to give up on some things until they are older. But it isn't like this anymore.
I know the car seat was installed that day, but I never heard it asked, WHO installed it. Why was it put behind the driver’s seat instead of the passenger seat, which would have been proper protocol to be able to see it in rearview mirror??!!
This has nothing to do with "forgetfulness" and everything to do with stupidity.
This couple of the deceased baby is a very strong couple to endure both deaths of their children due to the grandma. I pray they stay strong. My hearts breaks for them but they warm my heart with their true true love they have for each other. Absolutely beautiful.
Why did they risk a second child's life?
@patriciagriswold6060 I assume she was giving her mom the benefit of doubt the first time. Apparently the authorities told her it was a accident so she believed that. I guess she didn't think her mom was a killer. I am wondering though if her mom didn't have a extreme jealousy problem and that's why the "accidents" kept happening. From what I gathered at the news conference of the deceased babies mom, she is going to have them relook into her sons death. Idk it's horrible and I couldn't imagine being them.
Wow you people are monsters. This family is destroyed and your knives are out. Self righteous wicked people! She was a grandma with early onset dementia and they were ignoring it. All of them.
Yes, memory loss, onset dementia. Was she checked by a doctor?
Grandma's crying because she got caught or she realizes she has mental issues of forgetfulness and should have said NO to babysitting
Or wants sympathy from jury
"The child". Huh?!? Cold impersonal distancing language. Why?!?!
Question as I’m in U.K. and haven’t been able to find out much does the daughter and grandmother talk I don’t know how you get pass this especially as it’s happened twice!
I remember watching something a while ago and they were at that point forgiving her to a degree they let her away with it once before so it is possible 😢
I doubt any of the family except hubby would be talking to her ever again
It seems like the mother of those babies just went on to replace them. What mother would ever leave another child they had in the care of this monster who still does not take responsible
I believe that since the death of the 2nd child they have had a 3rd?
@@katbar6066yes that’s correct. Four months old I think
the mom's 911 call was very weird and she is a little too enthusiastic about the media attention she's getting. She played with her hair on the stand like she was on stage. This family is not right
That was the other daughter on the 911 call not the mom
The child?
U mean ur grandchild?
That has a name.
Were u 2 tired of helping?
What really happened
the child 🧐 not my granddaughter 🤔
These eldery people were used as free day care for years. Seems unfair.
When she came back after lunch didn't he ask where the baby was?
This is so sad and heartbreaking. My heart goes out to all involved.
Me too.
The outcome was NOT GUILTY of manslaughter, Guilty of leaving minor unattended for more than 15 minutes. The maximum sentence for the lader is 60 days?!
60 days! Wheres the justice for a death!?!
F*cking unbelievable 😡
The mother was irresponsible to leave another child with the Alzheimer grandma
Why would the car seat be behind the driver anyway. This lady should’ve never been allowed to have any ones child again this’s horrible
this family has no respect for the court..chewing gum and the man not wearing a tie...
Hes responible to. He shouldnt allow the wife babysit
Your man allows you and doesn't allow you????
@@catherinethemba yes especially when one grandchild died on her care
😢😢 wow does he ever look grumpy. He doesn’t even see her name this family something is off. The sisters chewing gum and fixing her hair and pretending to cry but there’s no tears then she’s fixing her eyelash but still chewing gum this family something is so off About them they have no emotion none of them not even the mother of the child
She's a serial killer I believe. Of the family kind.
The whole family is odd. They are all in the wrong. Who gets someone on meds who is prone to memory loss to look after a baby, especially after she has one child die in her care already. The parents are just as off as the grandparents.
Wow “the child” these people are absolutely cold monsters. They all need to be investigated. This whole family is completely whacked.
It’s too bad that most parents don’t raise their own kids these days
Most families need two earners nowadays in order to survive.
My SIL did that. This was 1990 at the time. My in-laws just retired and were looking forward to traveling. SIL got pregnant, her husband cheated, SIL moved back home with the baby and my in-laws never got to travel, they raised her son while she enjoyed life. I'm the one they complained to, they wouldn't talk to her about it. In-laws paid for the diapers, formula, basically everything. I stayed out of it being the DIL.
Back in the day grandparents were an even bigger part of their grandchildren lives than now, I’m the only person who has ever sat fir my grandchildren and my eldest one is 16, I’m proud of that, my daughter and I do not trust anyone else. Kids need to spend time with grandparents it’s a precious relationship. Most parents have to work now and cannot afford childcare fees. So I’m afraid your was a sweeping statement
i think that the daughter is complicit. she had her daughter in a fuzzy onesie in Florida and everyone knows about dangers with cars. she left her daughter with her mother KNOWING her mother probably has some onset dementia. How could she have left a young baby unsupervised with her mom??? The mom had all the facts and LET it happen. Something about this is very, very off.
I thought grandma had been assessed and found not to have dementia/alzheimers
Same questions I have. I also just have a weird feeling whenever I see the mother and father. Something is just off.
There's something about the mom. it's just off. À Retired Psych RN 4 40 yrs, I question the judgment if there were malicious issues with another child. Logically doesn't make sense imo.
The daughters should not use their parents for baby sitters. They are too old for that job
If a child died in my care I would NEVER be responsible for another child again.
Mum and Dad I’m so very sorry. The trauma you must be feeling is devastating and no human should have to endure such torture. I don’t think I could forgive my mother if she neglected my child that lead to death
@@cathimummery6873 two children. She killed two of their babies in just over two years.
