A Texas mother has been arrested for allegedly selling her young children.

Esmeralda Garza, 29, was arrested by Texas Department of Public Safety (DPS) officials on Friday after she allegedly sold her 7-year-old boy to two men, KRIS-TV reported. Garza was also in the process of selling two other children – a 2-year-old girl and a 3-year-old girl – as well, officials said.

The arrest occurred after DPS officers executed a drug search warrant, according to KIII-TV.

Garza, of Corpus Christi, was charged with the sale or purchase of a child, which is a third-degree felony. She is being held on a $100,000 bond at the Nueces County Jail, KRIS reported.

It’s like adding graffiti to the Mona Lisa painting

That's the exact same description I use.

"..Personally, I find tats to be quite repulsive...esp on women.."

An opinion you are definitely entitled to. But "satan's minion"?

Kinda flies in the face of that whole getting judged by character instead of skin color thing.

But to each their own. d:^)

Hmmm...do you have a link or reference that it (selling your children) has and is happening in Corpus Christi quite often? I don’t think so. At least this hadn’t hit media before that I’m aware. Corpus Christi a cesspool of invaders? Nope..most going further North from what I can see. Where do you live..the Bronx?

Sickened in my heart, for the child “sold” and the two other kids. Makes me want to win a huge multi-hundred-million lotto and make a home for these kinds of kids whenever I hear about a new case.

Actually, “satan’s minion” was referencing the acts of this evil woman...not the tattoo. Please pay attention.

And cool it with your baseless attacks of racism - you sound exactly like a typical leftwing snowflake playing the race card.

I’ll probably get flamed, but I am betting the woman is Mexican. I say that because child trafficking and sex with children is part of Mexican culture, and has been for ages. I remember a guy in California — an illegal — actually used that excuse when he was arrested for having sex with a 10-year old girl. He was surprised he was arrested, and said that what he did was just part of his native culture.

Looks like Texas needs to rethink their laws...per the article, selling her babies and only charged with a 3rd Degree Felony

Sec. 12.34. THIRD DEGREE FELONY PUNISHMENT. (a) An individual adjudged guilty of a felony of the third degree shall be punished by imprisonment in the Texas Department of Criminal Justice for any term of not more than 10 years or less than 2 years.

So, with good behavior, she could serve 1 year. That’s just wrong!

Testy thing. So quick to get "ill". Hehehe.
Your statement was short an unclear. The only things mentioned were "satan's minion" and a "tattoo".

The "skin color" was a reference to having tattoos and a play on MLK. How in Hades you get an accusation of racism outta that is "curious".
So yes, please pay attention. Makes you seem more the snowflake than I.
And that's an opinion I'M entitled do.

Good day. And bless yo' little ol' heart. d;^)

Why is this not human trafficking? She is involved in the transfer of these children.

I’m typing slow so you have a better chance to grasp reality of your racist attack.

1. I specifically referenced tats to graffiti on the Mona Lisa.

2. I did NOT reference skin color in any post.

3. YOU introduced racism with your posts and attempt to conflate tats to skin color, racism & MLK.

Now crawl back under your rock of racism.....good-bye.

So I'm just a little confused about "...and even has a neck tattoo..." I might be wrong, but I don't think neck tattoos are an identifying factor of satanic minions?

Also "...I find tats to be quite repulsive...esp on women..."

Accusations about "snow-flakedness" by someone who is offended by tattoos? That fails the straight-face test ALL day long...

While everyone is entitled to their opinion, I think this woman (and many others like her) who have had a double mastectomy and used tattoos in a beautiful and feminine way might disagree with you....

Exactly
and while the word mother is used in first sentence it does not say the 7 y o boy he sold was her son
and it did not say the other 2 children were her kids either.

I always love <\SARCASM> the use of false emotional arguments to try and make something that is not good, in general, OK.
