Story by Conrad Hoyt • 19h

A Texas mother is accused of leaving her 9-year-old daughter alone in a hot car during a summer day while she went to work, leading to the child's death.

Gbemisola Akayinode, 36, has been charged with felony murder and booked into the Harris County Jail, Harris County Sheriff Ed Gonzalez announced on Friday. The charges were brought more than three months after the incident in question.

On July 1, the defendant drove to work at a mineral plant in Galena Park on Mayo Shell Road with her daughter, Oluwasikemi Akayinode in tow. The mother exited the car to begin her shift at 6 a.m., leaving the child inside "with the back windows partially down," the sheriff said.

The girl was also left with some water, but as the hours dragged on, the heat naturally increased in the small South Texas town. After an eight hour shift, at about 2 p.m., Gbemisola Akayinode went to check on her daughter and noticed she was unresponsive, Houston CBS affiliate KHOU reported.

If she's Islamic, doesn't that give her the right to kill her daughter and doesn't Islamic law supersede American law these days?

In some states yes, I have read that Islamic law supersedes American laws.

9-year-old couldn't unlock a door??

9-year-old couldn't unlock a door??

There are child proof 'safety locks' on many car doors that keep the door from being opened (and unlocked) from the inside. I found out about them when I locked myself into my 2000 1 ton van. I did not know it had them, and only got out by climbing over the load and letting myself out the back. Then I read the manual (online, I bought the van used) and found out about them.

If those were engaged, the kid would not be able to open (or unlock) the doors. With electric windows, the kid would not be able to do anything about that, either.

Plus a 9-year old Muslim female unaccompanied by a family member could be cause for an Honor Killing.

In what states would that be?

Throw the full legal book at the mother.  So, also find out if the 9 year old was sedated?  Tied down?  Locked in the car from the outside?  Unable to yell for more water?
