A Louisiana woman was arrested on murder charges on Sunday, days after her 10-month-old daughter reportedly died from being left in a hot car.

Hannah Cormier, 32, claimed she accidentally left her daughter in the car after she was called in to work. Jennings police chief Danny Semmes said forensic evidence recovered from Cormier’s phone and surveillance footage led to criminal charges in this case, according to The Advocate.

Reports indicated that Cormier’s daughter died on Wednesday, a day after she was left in a vehicle for 90 minutes. KPLC reported that it was 93 degrees with a heat index of 106 on Tuesday — when the infant was brought to the hospital with a temperature of 109 degrees.

Cormier is charged with second-degree murder and cruelty to a juvenile. She remains jailed without bond.

Twenty-three children have died in hot cars this year. According to No Heat Stroke, 29 children died of vehicular heatstrokes in 2023.
