Teen Charged With Manslaughter For Leaving 4-Year-Old In Sweltering SUV

Daycare worker Paris Ward has been charged with aggravated manslaughter in the death of 4-year-old Jordan Coleman, who was under her care when she allegedly left him sleeping in a sweltering SUV last month.

The child’s body temperature rose to a fatal 108 degrees when he was rushed to a Coral Springs., Fla., hospital, where he was pronounced dead as a result of hypothermia.

According to the arrest report, Ward was asked by the owner, Cecily Roberts, of the 3 C’s Daycare Academy to drive seven young children to her friend’s apartment because she was past her capacity as per state guidelines.  The day care, which has previously been cited and has a history of problems over safety concerns, has been shut down.
