The hole that Justin Ross Harris, the man accused of leaving his son to die inside of a hot car in Georgia, is in just got even deeper. 

According to CNN, a detective testified today that Harris, 33, sexted six other women while his 22-month-old son, Cooper, died inside of his vehicle on Jun. 18. One of them technically isn't even a woman—she's a 17-year-old girl who he sent a picture of his erect penis to. 

Furthermore, this comes a week after it was revealed that both Harris and his wife, Leanna, had done Internet research about children and animals dying inside of vehicles. Harris also looked into prison survival tips. 

CNN adds that when Leanna Harris went to pick their son up from day care the day he died, she appeared to already know what happened when told that he was never been dropped off. "Ross must have left him in the car," she said, according to Cobb County Detective Phil Stoddard.

Stoddard added that Harris and his wife had been struggling financially, and had taken out two insurance policies on their son worth $27,000. Lastly, a Cobb County judge found probable cause for the murder and child cruelty charges Harris currently faces.
