S01E08: THE COOPER HARRIS CASE

S01E08: THE COOPER HARRIS CASE

On a hot summer day in 2014, 22-month-old Cooper Harris dies after being left in a hot car for over 7 hours. In what initially looks like a horrifying case of "forgotten baby syndrome", an investigation leads police to suspect that the incident may have actually been planned by the boy's own father, Ross. This is the story of how a man's forgotten child led to the discovery of the secrets he was hoping to keep hidden and the ongoing debate that surrounds this case. Did he orchestrate it all in order to live a child-free life? Or was it all just a terrible accident?
