However, a lawyer for Anibal Cruz's family said responsibility for the deaths is now "squarely on the shoulders of the police."

"I think the numbers speak for themselves," Peter M. Villari told The New York Times. "They were certainly alive when the police arrived and certainly well after the search started."


I would SO arrest the parents, and the owner of the car for 3 counts of child neglect. People are always looking for someone else to blame. Earlier in the article they stated the parents looked for the kids for 3 hrs before calling police. So how can they blame the police for not finding them, if THEY couldn't find them themselves.

Suing the police is bullshit in my opinion.

f*ck them.

RB 07-19-2005 10:50 AM

eh, its the lawyer yappin' his mouth, not the parents:

""I don't think me and my husband want to go through that. Suing anybody or getting a lawyer isn't going to help us bring him back," Iraida Agosto said."

Bl@ck 07-19-2005 11:19 AM

yeah this is some BS. where were the parents when their children were locking themselves in the trunk of an abandoned car?

I can wholeheartedly agree with arresting the parents for child abuse; however, I don't see how the owner of the car should be held liable. Unless there's something I missed? :dunno:

I'm pretty sure that the owner of the car and the parents are one in the same. I think it was some POS car they had sitting in their front yard or something.

Also, given the recent Supreme Court decision relating to the woman whose children were killed by her estranged husband after she had repeatedly called 911, I don't see how the police can have any liability in this case. If a case is filed it'll be kicked out immediately (or should be, given the precedent).

I don't think that the parents should be blamed at all. They just let their kids go out and play just like any other parent would. Also, like RB said, it's the lawyer who wants to sue, not the parents.

I disagree because I think the car belonged to one of the parents. I'd say they were at fault by creating the hazard on their property that eventually killed the kids. Well, not at fault, per se, but at least more at fault than the rescue workers who attempted to find the children.
