SOUTHFIELD, Mich., July 1 — A mother accused of leaving her children to die inside her sweltering car while she went to have her hair done has been charged with first-degree murder.
TARAJEE MAYNOR, 25, of Detroit, remained jailed without bond early Monday. She faces life in prison without the possibility of parole if convicted.
Acacia D. Maynor, 10 months, and Adonnis D. Maynor, 3 years, died Friday after being left alone in her black compact car for more than three hours, police said.
“We treat animals better than that,” said Southfield police Chief Joseph Thomas. “It’s our full intention to put her behind bars for the rest of her natural life.”
“This is a hideous crime, a horrific crime,” Thomas said.
Maynor was arraigned Sunday before District Court Magistrate Eugene Friedman on two counts each of first-degree murder and felony child abuse.
The Southfield magistrate ordered her held without bond at the Oakland County Jail.
Maynor, who is due back in court on July 10, was not represented by an attorney.
“Those children really suffered,” said Oakland County Assistant Prosecutor Deborah Carley. “The mere image of her sitting in that salon, getting her hair done, reading a magazine while they were suffering makes me sick.”
SUNNY AFTERNOON
Thomas said the windows on the car, a Dodge Neon, were rolled up when the children were left. He said Maynor’s hair appointment apparently took longer than expected.
The weather was sunny on Friday afternoon, with afternoon highs in the 80s, according to the National Weather Service. The temperature inside a parked car likely would be much hotter because of the greenhouse effect.
Maynor first told police that she had been abducted, raped and then returned to her car, police said.
She later changed her story, telling police that she stopped to have her hair done about 4:20 p.m. and left the children. When she returned more than three hours later, she found them dead, police said.

Mom Who Left Kids Has Criminal Past
DETROIT, 12:38 p.m. EDT July 2, 2002 - Oakland County Prosecutor David Gorcyca is looking into the criminal record of a
pregnant
Detroit mother accused of leaving her children trapped inside a hot car.
Court records showed that Tarajee Maynor , 25, ignored court dates and traffic tickets. Her driver's license was suspended three times and she has been barred from driving since 1999.
Maynor pleaded guilty in September 1999 to stealing more than $15,000 in jewelry
from her then-employer, Service Merchandise in Livonia, Mich., The Associated Press reported. A warrant was reportedly issued after she did not appear for sentencing in January 2000.
Maynor is charged with two counts of felony murder. Oakland County prosecutors said that Maynor left her 10-month-old daughter, Acacia, and 3-year-old son, Adonnis, in the car Friday while getting her hair done at a Southfield salon.
The children reportedly died from hyperthermia after being in the black Dodge Neon for about three hours in the sweltering heat. Temperatures in the car reportedly topped 100 degrees and the children likely survived only 20 to 40 minutes, Local 4 reported.
The children were covered with vomit when they were taken to Providence Hospital by their mother, Local 4 learned. Lip marks were found on the car window, suggesting that the 3-year-old was gasping for air, the station learned. The boy also reportedly removed his sister from her car seat in what would appear to be an attempt to help her.
Prosecutors said that Maynor knew the dangers of the heat.
Gorcyca appeared on CNN's "Connie Chung Tonight" Monday, calling Maynor "a pretty callous woman."
"This mother bears no maternal instincts," Gorcyca told CNN. "She placed these two children in a little inferno, and had to know that there was going to be dire consequences."
Gorcyca called the children's ordeal "physical and mental torture."
"She knew it was hot. She put the kids in the car. She cracked the window," Oakland County Assistant Prosecutor Kate McNamara told Local 4. "She spent over three hours in a salon, never checking on them once."
Southfield police said that Maynor also drove around three hours with the dead children in her car before taking them to the hospital. Once at the hospital, she reportedly told investigators that she had been abducted and raped, Local 4 reported.
Investigators said that the evidence and her story did not match, and began to interview her further. Police said that she eventually confessed to leaving the children inside the car. She reportedly told police that she was trying to figure out what to do as she drove around for three hours after discovering they had died.
Southfield Police Chief Joseph Thomas said that he is trying to make an example out of her. "It's part of our efforts to keep Southfield safe and secure," Thomas told The Oakland Press. "There are governmental agencies that are willing to stand up for young people like the two that died in that crime."
Thomas told the paper that there are some people who should not have the right to have kids.
Maynor remained silent during her weekend arraignment. If convicted on the murder charges, she could spend the rest of her life in prison.
Maynor is currently being held in jail without bond. The judge agreed to keep her in jail until her case is decided. Prosecutors also want to take custody of her unborn child, Local 4 reported.
