TULSA — Federal investigators announced the result in the case of two Tulsa children who died in a hot truck.

Dustin Dennis was convicted of child neglect.

He was accused of leaving his two children unsupervised for more than four hours.

The case went to the feds after learning the mother and children were Native American.

The children managed to lock themselves in a hot truck while Dennis was asleep inside.
