The pastor, who was officiating a church service that day, said she thought someone had taken the child into the church.
A Brevard County pastor charged in the death of her baby found in a hot car is set to appear in court for a plea hearing, less than one month after prosecutors reduced her charges.
After eight months of reviewing the case of a baby who died in a car while her mother led a church service, the state attorney's office will prosecute Bulaine Molme on a charge of leaving a child alone in a car with bodily harm.
It’s been two weeks since Palm Bay police said Fendra Molme — three days shy of her first birthday — was accidentally left in a car in the parking lot of a church for three hours, leading to her death.
Bulaine Molme told a detective she thought her 11-month-old daughter, Fendra, had been brought into a church by a member of the congregation and was sleeping during a Sunday service. Instead, the tot was dying from overheating in her mom's SUV.
