Arizona Hot Car father ‘used’ eldest daughter for ‘false conservatorship’

The child, who turns 18 next week, has vowed to keep the lawsuit alive and seek justice from Erika despite Christopher’s suicide.

Scholtes committed suicide on Tuesday evening.

He was scheduled to report to jail the next morning after agreeing to a plea deal in the death of two-year-old Parker, who was trapped in the car when temperatures soared to 40 degrees.

The teenager, who has a two-year-old toddler of her own, was living with a guardian away from her father after her biological mother died last year.

The guardian, Lindsay Eisenberg, said she was emotionless when she told the girl that her father had committed suicide.

“She said, ‘I knew he was going to do this, I knew he was going to kill himself.’ Then she asked if her sisters were okay,” Eisenberg told the Daily mail.
