These types of stories always make me wonder how often this actually happens without us knowing? Scary.
This footage enrages me! I have friends who would give anything to be parents and have a child in their life - and then this woman carts her grandchildren around in the boot of her car in a locked cage.
When the children were questioned by police, they stated that the grandmother claimed there wasn't enough room for them to sit safely in a seat. This was an SUV, how much space can two children possibly take up?! To make matters worse, the car had no air conditioning and all the windows were closed.
