Okay, I can top that one too.



A woman CEO of a HOSPITAL was supposed to drop off her 4 year old to day care and her younger child (I think 18 month old) to the sitter's (daycare doesn't accept really young children).



She remembered to drop off the 4 year old but forgot about the younger child. Parked the minivan in the parking lot at work and went to work all day. The young child was left in the van all day long and died.



She blamed it on the fact that her husband usually is responsible for dropping the kids off but for some reason that day she had to and this was not part of her normal routine and she had a lot on her mind that day (being a CEO and all).



She was charged but I can't remember exactly what she was charged with.



It was a very controversial case and debated by many working moms.
