A woman accused of kidnapping a three month-old baby befriended the infant's mom at church after noticing she was heavily pregnant, it was claimed.

Carolina Ayala said that Yesenia Ramirez, 43, inveigled her way into her family's life after spotting her with the huge baby bump, and became a regular called to the family's San Diego home after Ayala's son Brandon was born.

Ayala said: 'She would go to my house a lot, she always wanted to be there,' Ayala told KTST-TV, a Telemundo affiliate.

Brandon was snatched from his grandmother's home Monday by a man cops say is Jose Roman Portillo, 28.

They allege Portillo was encouraged to carry out the abduction on Ramirez's orders. Brandon was discovered safe in a San Diego home on Tuesday, with Ramirez and Portillo both appearing in court Thursday charged with his abduction.

Ayala said she was at work cleaning a home when her sister-in-law called her on Monday, to let her know her child was missing.

'I felt like half of my heart had left with him. I felt like I died,' Ayala told KDTV-TV, a Univision affiliate.

Authorities did not issue an Amber Alert because investigators did not have a vehicle description.

In the early hours of the investigation, officers and FBI agents went door-to-door in the neighborhood to appeal for witnesses or information.

Ayala was reunited with her son on Tuesday, after police found him in Portillo's home, and said it was like 'having my soul return to my body.

With open borders, such kidnappings will increase; unfortunately, most will be for ransome.

They kidnapped the wrong Brandon.

You dont say. Women in America not groomed with their kids by pedos to accept transexuals what not?

Not one word about the legal status of the mom or the kidnapper. If they don’t say, they are clearly here illegally.

Brandon!! who is going to name their kid Brandon anymore.
Glad he’s back home.

“inveigled her way into her family’s life”

Okay, who can honestly say they knew what “inveigled” meant?

Definition of inveigle

So...was Brandon an anchor baby?

Irrelevant issue in this story. The kidnapping of a wanted child supersedes other considerations.

Here I am posting this in religion forum to show you can’t trust everyone who comes to church and says they are “Christian”.

Please tell me you all got that warning.

[Albion Wilde]

I’ve often estimated that less than 10% of those claiming any of the many world religions actually understand it, know their scriptures and humble themselves before their Lord. For many, it’s just a thing that they do, hoping to look good, please their parents, make connections, or ask for a miracle without doing the work of repenting or learning.

[Baldwin77]

Totally relevant. We don’t need people here that break the law just by coming in. Already, they have demonstrated lack of civil responsibility and a certain, “F U” attitude towards obeying laws.

Notice the correlation between increased crime and increased illegal invasion?

It is totally relevant.

[Baldwin77]

Some times, you can’t even trust the person who speaks from the pulpit. In fact, often you can’t.

Except for high-profile infants who would bring a ransom, newborn kidnapping is almost exclusively done by obsessed women seeking to replace a child they have lost, and it remains comparatively rare. The cost of police work in this particular case resulted in a reunited mother and child. The mommy is lucky the child wasn't cut from her womb and herself left to die, as in so many baby-theft situations, which occur in every culture around the world. The cases below were chiefly among white U.S. citizens:

Texas, 2020: 'Friend' arrested for murder, kidnapping after baby cut out of womb
North Dakota, 2017: Monster Cut Baby from Mother's Womb, Now Grieving Boyfriend Raising Her 'Miracle'
Colorado, 2015: Woman who cut fetus from mother’s womb convicted
Wisconsin, 2015: Wisconsin Woman Accused of Abduction, Cutting Out Fetus
Massachusetts, 2009: Baby cut from mother's womb found alive
Kansas, 2004: Woman set to die for killing woman, cutting baby from womb
Missouri, 2004: Skidmore, Missouri: woman carves fetus from a mother’s womb
Ohio, 2000: Pregnant Woman Killed, Fetus Stolen
Illinois, 1995: 3 Held in Killings; Baby Cut From Womb Survives
Many cases in various states, 1987–2008: Baby cut from mother...

Infant kidnapping is a felony, with all the expense of prosecution attached; but in the case of murder of the mother or death of the infant, it can be a decades-long death penalty case with long incarceration and multiple appeals.

As for the abduction in this thread, it's likely the perp will be convicted and any welfare payments she may have been receiving will be a "wash" with the costs incarceration. The cost of lengthy appeals are not likely to be supplied by the organized left, since this crime is still universally repugnant. Therefore I continue to suggest that the legal status of the mother in this happy-outcome case is a comparatively minor concern.
