Partying Florida Parents Charged After 18-Month-Old ‘Baked to Death’
The parents of an 18-month-old who authorities say suffered “an absolutely torturous death” after being left in a hot car while they slept after a July 4 party have been charged.
Polk County Sheriff Grady Judd said in a press conference Thursday that Joel and Jazmine Rondon, both 33, of Lakeland, Florida, have been charged with aggravated manslaughter of a child, a first-degree felony.
“You know there’s many different kinds of press conferences that we do from this podium but the one I’m going to talk about today is one of the most horrible, tragic deaths that we’ve seen in a very long time,” Judd said.
