Incarceration, rehabilitation, recidivism: The reality of prison life and what it's like to be an inmate locked up behind bars.
Hot Car Deaths
There are on average 38 human hot car death in the United States each year. There are about 54 animal hot car deaths with another 450 being rescued from the dangers of being locked in a hot car. Some of those cases are prosecuted and others are deemed to be tragic accidents with no charges filed. What separates those cases? What determines the responsibility of a parent or guardian? All of the cases involve neglectful actions that led to the death of a child or children. Isn't neglect (child, adult, or animal), in and of itself, the basis for arrest? It would seem that neglect that leads to death would certainly be an arrestable offense. Here we will take a look at some cases from around the United States. You decide for yourself what determines charges in hot car death cases.

Something's wrong in Oklahoma
Today, we're headed to Oklahoma. It's often celebrated for its warmth and beauty, (although when I think Oklahoma... I think of huge tornadoes that send you straight to Hell.. but I digress) it also bears the weight of a dark, persistent reputation within the justice system. It boasts having one of the highest incarceration rates in the whole country. In 1996 alone, the state saw over two hundred homicides, but few were as chilling as the one that unfolded along a pitch black shoulder of U.S. Highway 75.

What would you do if these guys turned on you?
" What would you do if all of these guys suddenly turned on you ?" I looked around at the guys in question. Some 15 or 20 men either convicted of, or awaiting trail for, serious violent and other crimes. Mostly they were big, broad shouldered, and spent plenty of time in the gym and working out in their cells. Any one of them could have overpowered me with little difficulty, let alone a roomful of them.
