I mean no disrespect, but I will never understand the willingness to make negative judgments with so little information.  A child could be in a car with a parent for an enormous number of perfectly innocent reasons at any time of day or night.  Additionally, who takes the time to find out whether someone in a story such as this has a mugshot?

The correct response to a story like this is a simple wish that the child and the family will be able to successfully move on from this most unfortunate event.  We are becoming more and more like a society of Gladys Kravitz's.
