ALLEGHENY COUNTY, Pa. (WPXI) — There’s now an online obituary for 3-month-old Kayden Nguyen that says “he will be deeply missed, and will always be in his family’s hearts.” The baby boy died last week, when he was left in a hot car for hours on one of the hottest days of the season. The Peters Township baby was left in an Upper Saint Clair parking lot, outside of Envy Nail Spa. An employee at the salon told us it’s where the child’s father worked. Days after Kayden died, no one has been charged. County police say they are still waiting for the medical examiner’s report. Local defense attorney Blaine Jones weighed in on the case as a legal analyst and thinks that charges are imminent. “This is not a Murder 1 case. I don’t think anyone will argue that this was intentional. This isn’t a Murder 2 either because that’s a felony murder. So therefore, in my opinion, I think you’re looking at Murder 3, voluntary or involuntary manslaughter,” Jones said. A county spokesperson says it sometimes takes the medical examiner reports so long to process due to tests or exams that need to be executed.
