'This family needs prayer, their life will never be the same,' the county sheriff said on Tuesday.
The 20-month-old twins died from hyperthermia — when body temperatures are extremely elevated — the local coroner, Naida Rutherford confirmed to TODAY on Tuesday. The findings match her initial statement made earlier this month, but had to wait on toxicology reports to make it official.
On Tuesday, Richland County Sheriff Leon Lott confirmed there would be no charges filed. He said the boys' father thought he took the children to the daycare that morning where they were enrolled and then drove to work. He found the boys in their rear-facing child seats just after 5:30 p.m. after he drove to the day care center to pick them up.
Rutherford said in a press conference last week that one of the twins' parents discovered the children in the backseat and that a window was broken during the attempted rescue."The father was under some intense pressure at work that really had his mind somewhere else that day," Lott said."And in his mind, he really believed that he had dropped the two boys off at day care. There was no doubt in his mind that he had done that.
