A devastated Martha’s Vineyard father said his two-year-old son could be heard on video crying out for him after his nanny allegedly left him to die in the back of her car while she cooked and pampered herself. Matt Rodenbaugh accused Aimee Cotton, 40, of torturing his son Frankie, who died of hypothermia days after being found unresponsive in his car seat, where he had been strapped for hours without food or water outside the babysitter’s Oak Bluffs, Massachusetts, home last March, WBZ-TV reported. The heartbreaking March 13, 2025, incident was allegedly captured on Cotton’s Nest camera.
