I would like to have my daughter's case reinvestigated and set precedent for future cases.
The Issue
On June 5, 2015 my daughter Angel Green of Baton Rouge, LA, died in a hot van at daycare. The owner lied to me and said my daughter fainted outside playing. She told me Angel vomited, had a seizure and passed out. I later learned that she was left in the van. When I arrived at the hospital, Angel had already been pronounced dead. She was wearing a clean diaper. After years of questioning how Angel was able to climb to the front seat of the van without getting off, I found out the owner made a trip to Sam's Club with Angel still in the van. When I spoke to the worker about what happened she said when she found Angel, she was making a gurgling noise. It wasn't coming from her mouth it was coming from her body. I looked at her autopsy and Angel had settling of the blood on two parts of her body. Her bladder was empty and she had already passed her final stool, but she was wearing a clean diaper. I met with the chief of police and I spoke to the Mayor about my discovery. I had a meeting with the district attorney's office and asked them why didn't anyone check the cameras at Sam's in order to determine how long the daycare owner was in the store shopping and the cameras in the parking lot in order to confirm that she already knew Angel was dead and changed her diaper. No one had an explanation and no one took the time out to properly investigate what happened to Angel. The daycare owner was ordered to pay me restitution and pay for my therapy. In June of 2020 the daycare owner had a court date to be released from parole and I was not notified until the next day. The district attorney intentionally withheld pertinent information in order to sweep the truth under a rug and decided not to investigate any further. I asked to take the case to trial and I was told no because they felt like she wouldn't get convicted. If the truth had been presented properly to the Grand jury the case would have been solid enough to convict on a greater charge. I would like to get proper justice for my daughter and hold those accountable for lying to me about what really happened to my daughter.
