STORYLINE
Justin Ross Harris took a picture of his son Cooper every morning as he dropped him off at the Little Apron Academy day care – until two weeks before the little boy died in his dad’s hot car.
And when Ross Harris was running late, he usually called the day care to let them know – but not on June 18, 2014, the day Cooper died. Riveting testimony was presented to jurors Thursday from teachers and staff at the Smyrna, Georgia day care facility, where 22-month-old Cooper Harris had been enrolled since he was an infant.
Harris, 35, is standing trial for the first-degree murder of his son.
Prosecutors believe he deliberately left his son to die in the family’s Hyundai Tucson back in 2014.
