Mystic Rain
Mewtwo is life
This is just sickening. It's unfathomable to me how such a thing of this magnitude happens.

ANTIOCH, Calif. -- Police said a 7-month-old California girl died after being left inside the family car overnight, KTVU-TV in Oakland reported.
Authorities said it appears Sofia Wisher's death was an accident, but an investigation is under way.
Police said the parents drove home about 11:30 p.m. Saturday from a relative's place, and each parent thought the other had taken the baby out of the car seat.
"My understanding is they went to bed around 3:30 a.m. Both parents had seen the door to the child's room closed and just assumed the other parent had put the child into the crib," Antioch Police Lt. Leonard Orman said. "Apparently, the child was a light sleeper and it wasn't their practice to be going in there all night checking on her."
Police said that the next day, the father woke up and went to the gym. When the mother awoke and checked on her children, she discovered that Sofia was not in her crib. She called her husband, who found Sofia in the car.
The father called 911 from the gym's parking lot about 2 p.m. The baby was pronounced dead at the scene.
The county's Children and Family Services department was notified and the couple's 2-year-old has been taken into protective custody while police investigate.
Police said the high temperature was 78 Sunday, but that inside the car it was more than 110 degrees.
Obviously, there's some level of neglect that occurred here, Orman said. It'll be up to the DA's office to decide whether that rises to a crime.
The coroner's office has not yet determined an official cause of death.
