Babies are worth it. Parents who sell them should be snuffed. Period.

“But on the child-selling charge, he could only face up to three years in jail, according to state law.”

WTF?????

[RetiredTexasVet]

Sounds like another victim in the victimless crime of drugs.

[I still care]

Actually, on some level, this is great.

Some cruddy worthless druggie parents are having a defenseless child removed from their custody, and someone who puts a value on a life gets a child.

Of course, the parents should end up in jail and this is slavery so thus should be illegal. But glad to see baby out of their care.

No doubt in my mind, this Mother and father...are perps here. This woman 'rings hollow'I even as she cries. She does so, open faced to camera - as if 'we' need to be convinced; she does not ever cover her face or her eyes; which, IMHO; makes for suspicious body language.

The Father seems altogether 'flat-lined', in his emotions. Perhaps he cannot be as openly dishonest as his wife or, is he the last to know here(?)

Whatever; the father stands like a tree - and emotes the same; while she leans and wails. Think this is a disgusting story of sick parenting unfolding.

Have to say my second worst thought is that this baby was given up for money. We also do not know exactly when/time she disappeared; but would bet enough time for this child to be 'secured'.
