A couple who allegedly left their son in a hot car while they were inside a strip club later complained about the heat of the police car they were being driven away in, a Kentucky court has heard.
Police officers claim emergency services had to be called last week after they received a report that an infant boy was alone in a car near the intersection of Taylor Boulevard and Longfield Avenue, Louisville.
The tip off came from an anonymous caller who also told police that the couple had being seen going inside a nearby strip club.


When officers arrived at the scene, around 11pm, they saw a Chevy Impala parked where the caller had said, and the boy inside. He was crying and sweating and in distress.
The court heard that at that point, 43-year-old Laura Diprimo, listed as the child's mother and employed by the club, allegedly ran out of the strip club and jumped in the car, lowering the windows.

It is an assertion that Diprimo denied at a preliminary court hearing. She claims that she was with the boy at all times and was in the car when the police arrived, insisting: 'I did not leave my son in the car.'


The boy's father, 28-year-old Thomas W. Lee, told the judge: 'I would never do that to my baby boy, I love him.'
Police claim Lee was seen walking out of the strip club after they arrived. He was wearing an ankle bracelet, as he was supposed to be under home arrest in Clark County, Indiana.
The arrest report says that, despite the incident happening late at night, the heat index at the time of the incident was 91 degrees.

It indicates that the child had been left alone in the car for at least 10-15 minutes.

Both Diprimo and Lee were arrested and charged with wanton endangerment, and the court heard that - while en route to the jail - Lee even complained about the heat in the back of the police car.

Probation authorities say Lee was already in trouble for charges relating to the child and Diprimo.
