Infants in Car, Mother Charged
ELLENWOOD, Ga. (AP) A Marietta woman faces child cruelty charges after allegedly leaving her 4-month-old twins in a hot car while she shopped.
Police said 26-year-old Janesia Williams was in Wal-Mart for about 30 minutes Saturday while the two infants remained in the car. She left the windows cracked open, which enabled police to get them out.
The twins were taken to Southern Regional Medical Center as a precaution, but doctors said they were OK.
The father picked them up from the hospital. Williams was jailed on child cruelty charges.
She remained at the Clayton County jail.

What others are saying
- Racism and Liberal left-wing AJC.One AJC edition of this news story quoted the mother of the "alleged" criminal as saying that, "Nothing happened. It was just an old white woman who was being nosey." Later articles on the same story deleted the racist remark. This made the story more politically correct and proves that the AJC is a liberal left-wing periodical. The black woman was wrong to lock her kids in the car. The "old white woman" may have saved the kids' lives. Bless you "old white woman." You did good. (Note: The screeners will probably block this one and readers will never see it.)
- Unattended Children"She left the windows open, which enabled the police to get them out" Let me iterate how the police get a child out of a hot car. It's called an ASP baton. The po-po don't care whether the window is cracked; they'll shatter it!
- Infants In CarThis is nothing new & it will continue to happen until idiots like this woman is prevented from having kids. Just because you can produce them does NOT mean you are capible of being a good parent. She DOES NOT need prayer & counseling she needs a good swift kick in the ass to see if that will jar her brain loose.
- Kids in Hot CarWSB, can we see a mug shot of this genius?
- infants in carYou'd like to think these individuals are just ignorant to the danger but we hear this stuff over and over again. Maybe there should be a warning on the dash of every vehicle that leaving anyone or any animal in a vehicle can be lethal and if you do it you not only will have lost the one(s) most precious to you but will most likely be found to be criminally negligent. Obviously these folks do not listen to the news. Many under the age of 40 do not listen and/or read any news reports. What a human tragedy! At least this time she did not suffer the ultimate price - the loss of her childrens lifes.
- She needs to be left in an oven with just the door cracked.
- TwinsLeave her in jail for a few months, thae to divorce court.
- million $ kidsHow many times a year
does this happen during
the hottest part of summer?
Go outside at noon and sit
in your car with the windows
all up and see how long you
can stand it before passing
out...Now, imagine your a
1-3 yr old.
How much are your kids worth
to you money wise? 1 million,
10 million, 100 million?
Would you leave $1000 in cash
laying on your car seat...
Forget the fact the you should
just be A GOOD PARENT. - Infants in "HOT" car!It is obvious that the mother is in immediate need of prayer and counseling.
