This is wrong for several reasons

1) they cannot leave the car if they for some reason need to do so for their own safety (or if they just needed to, say, use the bathroom)
2) no one else can see them - if he had been detained or delayed, it could have been very bad for the kids to be locked in the trunk, and they might have been there for a while before anyone figured it out and helped them
3) what if someone had stolen the car while he was in the shop?
4) how the hell could the cops know that he wasn't going to drive away with them still in the trunk?
5) both kids were too young to be left unattended, even "just for a few minutes" while the guy went shopping. If he could not bring them into the shop with him, then he needed to postpone the shopping or browsing until they were safely in someone elses' custody.
