GUILTY WI - Elena Martinez, 8 mos, dies in hot car, Brussels, 19 Oct 2011

Sad....family probably wracked with guilt too. When you have a family member who has a problem like alcoholism and has a small child that might be in danger because of said condition; the family MUST intervene on behalf of the child.
 
This goes to show you the kind of thing a drunk mother will do.

A woman convicted of leaving her infant daughter to die in an SUV is sentenced to three years in prison in Door County Court Thursday.

34-year-old Melissa Martinez pled no contest to a charge of neglecting a child with the consequence of death in June... Martinez's 8-month-old daughter Elena was found unresponsive inside a running SUV in the driveway. The baby was later pronounced dead...

In addition to the prison time, Door County Judge Todd Ehlers sentenced Martinez to four years extended supervision. She also cannot have any alcohol, must stay away from bars and taverns, and has to have an ignition interlock placed on her car.
