The Nebraska man who abandoned his nine children under the state's Safe Haven law last year is expecting to become the father of twins, FOXNews.com has learned.

Kathie Osterman, a spokeswoman for Nebraska's Department of Health and Human Services, said the Staton family had received more than $995,000 in government aid as of last fall, including an estimated $600,000 in food stamps and more than $100,000 in Medicaid.

This guy received almost a million $$$$$$$ in taxpayers money for his brood? He needs to be gelded and the state bureaucrats that permitted this to happen need to be fired.
I’ll take two of the kids for $80m/yr and save the taxpayers money!
$600,000 in food stamps for 9 kids??! The math shows some funny business going on.
The kids ranged in age from 17 to 1 so assume a combined time at the public trough of 81 years (17 + 15 + 13 + 11 + 9 + 7 + 5 + 3 + 1 = 81). That is an average of over $7,000 of food per child per year (600,000 / 81 = 7,407.41); or $583 per month.
What were these kids living on? Lobster and caviar?
If it feels good, do it, we'll pick up the tab. What could go wrong?
One irreversible vasectomy coming right up! Followed by a lifetime of garnished wages for child support, while living in a work camp along the Mexican border constructing a continuous physical barrier from the Gulf to the Pacific.
Uh...how long did the family receive food stamps? $600,000 in foodstamps? Even if that was spend on nine kids and two adults (the mother died a year or two ago), that’s an ENORMOUS amount of money for food for elevan people.
Even if all nine kids were living for the last 17 years (which clearly is not the case) that would mean the family got more than $35,000 in food stamps per year for 17 years!!! I know eleven people can eat a great deal of food, but more than $35,000 worth a year for seventeen years?
How is that possible?
Under the new safe haven law, looks like the twins will get to enjoy the company of their “father” for up to 29 days.
We could also assume that the writer messed up, we know the state of journalism today.
The guy is scum anyway, that is obvious.
“The Nebraska man who abandoned his nine children”
Whoa! Whoa!
I don’t think he’s from Nebraska....wasn’t he from someplace else originally?
He brought his 9 kids to the other Hospital here in Omaha and I thought he left. What a “bleep”ing piece of garbage!
He’s giving us (normal) Dad’s in Nebraska bad press!
More Obama voters......
A true Carbon Criminal.
I think the people deserve to know his street address and phone number.
You mean this week?
BTW - Have you ever been to Oystermouth Castle in Mumbles?
