A father kept calling for any sign an ambulance crew was able to save his two year old daughter after hours in a hot car. That’s part of what police body camera video shows in the case of Christopher Sholtes—-who’s facing first degree murder charges in the child’s death.As Sholtes paces the floor he says, “Please baby, please! Anything!”Referring to the emergency medical team, a police officer says, “Just let them focus.
We are on the scene. They called us. Anything like this happens, they call us.”Soon Scholtes would be under arrest—at first he was charged with second degree murder. That’s a charge based on reckless or careless behavior that led to a death. Later a Grand Jury raised the charge to first degree murder. That charge asks a jury to conclude someone acted deliberately and planned to kill.Officers say Sholtes other children told them he was distracted by a video game and by putting away food.
