“Shanesha Taylor was arrested for leaving her two children, then six months and two years old, in a car with the windows cracked and the fan blowing while she was interviewing for a job at a Scottsdale, Ariz., insurance agency for 69 minutes. It was about 71 degrees. When she came out, the Dodge Durango that had sometimes served as her home was surrounded by police. Crowdsourcing fundraisers worked quickly to gather more than $100,000 for Taylor and circulated a Change.org petition urging Maricopa County prosecutor Bill Montgomery to drop the charges against her. The petition garnered more than 57,000 signatures. Montgomery has said he will not drop the charges.”
