It's negligence.

Possibly criminal negligence.

Someone left that gun in the car, loaded. Should be held accountable.
If that state has a law against a kid being left unattended in a vehicle, responsible adult needs to be held accountable as well.

Possible the two failure points are one and the same person, possible they are not.
