Sheesh l guess you have to be a gutless idiot to be a reporter today.

That is pretty much a given.

[trisham]

Agreed.

In the U. K. a rapist gets visitation rights to any offspring. So they find the father. Now what?

“Better compare a sample from Bill Cosby too.”

Only if the child has obvious ethnic characteristics, otherwise then need a swab from Slick Willie, because I just imagine that now he needs “immobilized targets!”

[Leep]

Does the baby resemble any staff..or the illegal janitor?

[Celerity]

Name the baby after its father ...

.. Carlos Danger.

[Leep]

Might be a requirement.

There are no American born citizens working in any medical facility in most of Arizona as far as I can see - including doctors and nurses.

This could be a setup. Suppose a woman wanted to get rid of her husband, but didn’t want the possibility of ending up in jail on murder charges. So she has oral sex and saves the specimen collected. Use your imagination on the remaining aspects of the scenario and how it was carried off. Perfect setup. Lots of DNA to work with and 9 months since the crime took place. No one would remember where they might have been 9 months earlier for an alibi. Now of course I am not saying this is the case, just an interesting thought that crossed my mind with the posts of turkey baster method of introducing pregnancy. Perhaps you creative writers can use it to write a whodoneit. 8>)

I got it. Plus, sounds like "the staff" all know who did it. How could you not notice a pregnancy?

“None of the staff were aware that she was pregnant until she was pretty much giving birth..."

Right. That's believable.

I’m guessing she was gang raped nightly...

[Openurmind]

It’s getting that way everywhere. Citizens do not qualify for educational grants anymore. Business grants for motels and Circle K’s either...

Reading this story, I was curious of an ethical scenario. Would it be rape if the woman was married and her husband was the father of the child and prior to her accident, they had been trying to conceive as it was her wish to have children?

I know that's not the case here but I'm sure somewhere out it could be.

[sparklite2]

maybe she came out of a coma long enough to consent?

Depending on the prosecutor, he could be charged. ‘General’ consent isn’t enough, specific consent at the time is required. But the prosecutor might pass, or a judge could dismiss based on specific state law, or a jury could acquit.

Here’s a vaguely similar case:

A DNA test will identify the Daddy!

[Drew68]

Here’s a vaguely similar case:

Thanks. I was thinking of that exact case.

[Notthereyet]

They need to do a DNA check on the baby. Submitting the DNA to every possible company that they can...eventually someone will be picked up as a relative (long range, even). By starting with that person they can then track it backwards/sideways to the male who worked at the hospital and charge him.

[Rashputin]

Wait a minute, all the BS over that air head Ford and the democrats trying to derail a USSC appointment because said air head remembers something happening sometime decades ago, somewhere she can't specify, with someone who may have been the accused, and in this case there's an, alleged victim ?? !!

Save this article with something from the loudmouths spewing at the confirmation hearings for the next idiot who tells you the media formerly known as mainstream is anything other than a propaganda lie machine.
