Man sentenced for son's death
A man whose son died of heat and sunstroke after he left the 2-year-old in a sun-baked car in summer has been convicted of manslaughter.
The court in Vienne has given Eric Allarousse a suspended eight-month prison sentence. Allarousse told the court yesterday that his son's death in July was punishment in itself.
