So, how long does it take to pick up some money from the office. 1 minute, 2? Certainly wouldn't expect it to be more than that, else why leave the baby in the car. A car would not have sunk without trace in that time, so it would have been visible. For me its an awful lot of coincidences

Plus would a credit card snap if you sat one it ? and they say the car was in the water for 2 hours
