A woman who has been comatose for at least a decade gave birth in a Phoenix nursing facility Dec. 29, sparking a police investigation into possible sexual abuse.
Her caretakers had no idea the woman was pregnant until she was pretty much giving birth, a source familiar with the situation told CBS 5.
From what Ive been told she was moaning. And they didnt know what was wrong with her, the source told CBS 5.
The baby boy is healthy, but the mother remains in a vegetative state caused by a near-drowning incident years ago. The patient had around the clock care and many staff members at Hacienda HealthCare where she lives could have entered her room alone.
Hacienda HealthCare has already instituted a new policy so that male caretakers are never alone in a room with a female patient, the source told CBS 5.
The health care facility issued the following statement in light of the incident:

The woman was likely sexually assaulted in the spring or summer of 2018.

Seems to me a li’l DNA testing is in order.
Maybe they should use "probable." Or (just goi g out on a limb here's) "certain."
I wonder what the poor young woman's parents are feeling now.
No one noticed her stomach getting bigger and bigger?
“Her caretakers had no idea the woman was pregnant until she was pretty much giving birth,
Caretakers or rapists?
They knew. They are liars. Patient privacy and all that.
Lying is a way of life in this country these days.
“Possible sexual abuse”
LOL!! Ya think? Notice they can’t even say rape anymore. Just a bunch of weasel words and meaningless phrases, always couched in “potential” or “possible”. Wankers.
When a female body is in stress of some sort, it can stop periods. That is probably what happened to her.
Kill Bill! Kill Bill!
I hear that Elizabeth Warren is innocent.
*POSSIBLE* sexual abuse?
Ya think????????
[Police Launch Sexual Assault Investigation]
As they should. Saw this over at Yahoo earlier.
And a lot of references to a particular movie.
Just wow, the whole thing.
So the staff at this facility is raping her - unaware she’s missing periods and pregnant.
I had a seizure once because of stress. Never stopped my period though.
“When a female body is in stress of some sort, it can stop periods. That is probably what happened to her.”
As far as I know, if a woman isn’t having periods, she’s unable to conceive a child. So she probably was having them. As others have posted, DNA swabs all around for ANYONE who had access to her. Just hope a loving home is found for the baby!
I said stress can stop periods. It is usually hormonal.
The story doesn’t talk about how big she is. Might be many hundreds of pounds.
How could they not know? Even in a long term care facility a doctor or a NP comes in at least once a week for rounds. Abdominal sounds are checked regularly and especially if a patient’s belly looks distended. With this you would hear a fetal heartbeat at some point. You would also do an US to check for ascites as that would be a probable reason for stomach distension.
There was an episode of Law and Order where a rich disabled man was having his doctor impregnate women in comas so he could abort the child and collect their stem cells (being a better genetic match) .Even though it was just a show, you have to wonder if this has ever gone on?
