A 24-year-old Georgia father has been charged with manslaughter and reckless conduct after his 15-month old twin daughters children died Thursday after they were left in an SUV outside their home in the town of Carrollton on a day when the temperature reached 92 Fahrenheit there. There was desperate attempt to revive the children by placing them in a backyard swimming pool. The mother was reported to be in Atlanta 50 miles away after a car accident. Numbers are said to show that more than 550 children in the U.S. have died since 1998 from being left in hot cars with 26 cases this year.
