About this episode
This week on Seeing Red, we’re covering one of the most devastating and upsetting cases we’ve ever examined.
In Part One of this two-part series, we take you through the events leading up to the death of two-year-old Parker Scholtes. We look at her life, her family, and the decisions made in the hours before she was left alone in a hot car — decisions that would end in irreversible tragedy.
This episode focuses on the build-up: the timeline, the warning signs, and the moments that culminated in Parker being declared dead. It’s a deeply emotional case, and we’ve chosen to split it into two parts out of respect for the gravity of what happened — and because there is far too much to unpack responsibly in a single episode.
Part Two, which will be out next week, will examine what followed in the aftermath — the legal consequences, public reaction, and how this case ultimately concluded — but for now, this episode ends where Parker’s life did.
Content warning: child death, neglect, and extremely distressing material.
