Female vet accused of murdering her baby son 'after leaving him in baking hot car for seven hours'

A mother accused of the murder and neglect of her baby after she left him in her baking hot car for seven hours will go on trial today.

Dr Karen Murphy, 40, from Virginia, was arrested in June last year after the body of her two-year-old son Ryan was found strapped into his car seat, where she had left him that morning.

Murphy, a mother-of-three who owned a large veterinary practice, usually dropped Ryan at nursery on her way to work.
