Fact Pattern #1:

Harry and June Smith were married three years ago. When their son, Clay, was 6 months old, June asked Harry to watch him while she attended a class. Harry agreed and decided to take Clay with him to the home of one of Harry’s friends. Harry placed Clay in his car seat, strapping him in carefully. During the 20 minute ride to the friend’s home, Clay fell asleep. Because it was so quiet in the car, Harry forgot that he had Clay with him. When Harry arrived at his friend’s home, he left Clay in the car and went inside to play computer games. When Harry emerged two hours later, he saw Clay unconscious in the car and immediately attempted to resuscitate Clay. It was summer and outside temperatures had reached 80 degrees during that afternoon. Temperatures inside the car may have exceeded 110. Neither Harry nor the paramedics could resuscitate Clay. Harry has no prior criminal record.

You are the prosecutor. What action, if any, will you take?
