An Arizona man, 38-year-old Christopher Scholtes, who pleaded guilty to killing his 2-year-old daughter by leaving her inside a scorching car, was found dead just days before starting his prison term. Scholtes was scheduled to appear in court Wednesday but never showed up. The Maricopa County Medical Examiner later confirmed his death. In July 2024, Scholtes left his daughter, Parker, strapped in a car for nearly three hours in 109ยฐF heat while he watched porn and played video games inside. The carโ€™s engine and AC shut off after 30 minutes, causing her death. He faced 20โ€“30 years in prison under a plea deal. His cause of death remains under investigation.ย US: Father Jumps Into Ocean To Save Daughter After She Falls From 4th Deck of Disney Dream Cruise Ship, Dramatic Rescue of Duo Captured on Video.
