Arkansas parents handed 70-year prison sentence for trapping their 4 children in hot car - killing toddler - as another perished from malnutrition

Deja and Justin Rollins were sentenced to 70 years in prison after admitting to leaving their four young children trapped in a hot vehicle while seeking medical help for their 3-year-old. This decision directly led to the tragic death of their toddler from heat exhaustion and severe malnutrition. Prosecutors termed this incident one of the most disturbing cases involving child neglect they have ever dealt with, emphasizing a strong commitment to child protection and accountability for offenders in similar cases.

"This case is one of the most disturbing and heartbreaking our office has ever encountered," prosecuting attorney Will Jones said in a statement.

"Protecting children is the top priority of this office. There is no greater responsibility, and we will continue to do everything in our power to ensure that those who harm a child are held fully accountable."
