Charges Dropped Against Mom Who Left Child in Car
In Cook County Illinois the charges of misdemeanor child endangerment and obstructing a peace officer were dropped against Treffly Coyne 36 of Tinley Park after prosecutors said they could not prove their case. Coyne had been arrested December 8 when a Crestwood officer found her sleeping 2 year old daughter in a car in a Walmart loading zone. The case drew mixed reaction from officials and Coyne’s husband who defended her actions saying the child was never unattended and the car was in sight.
