At that time, the temperature was around 86°F, plus the air conditioner was not working in the car, and it was reported that even the windows were closed.

When asked by the police why Cheeks put her granddaughters inside a dog house she said that it was because there was no room in the car.

The children told the police that they were too hot while they were in that dog house.

Tennessee police charged Cheeks for child abuse for driving two children in a dog house and she is now in jail at Shelby County Detention Center.
