Just before his trial was set to begin, Christopher Scholtes, the Arizona father charged in his daughter’s hot car death, pleaded guilty to second-degree murder in the death of 2-year-old Parker Scholtes.

This full-length episode brings together everything we know about the case, from the original timeline and investigation, to key legal developments, court rulings, and the last-minute plea deal.

Whether you’ve followed this case from the beginning or are just catching up, this episode includes every major detail so far, with more to come as we await sentencing.

⚖️ Christopher must turn himself in by November 5, 2025 and sentencing is scheduled for November 21, 2025. I’ll share those details as soon as they’re available in the description.

Thank you for listening and for caring about stories like Parker’s. Her life mattered, and her voice still deserves to be heard. 💜
