大家看到昨天的新闻了吗(附后)?
这个娃娃大概也就这么几个出路:
(1)跟不想要他的生母在一起。
(2)送到一个由政府资助的寄养家庭(foster home)。
(3)送给那个愿意出$30000的亲戚抚养。三万美金差不多是一个人的年薪了。
大家帮政府出出主意。
Mom sold baby to buy car, police charge
MIAMI (Reuters) – A Florida woman was charged with trying to sell her
infant son in order to pay for a new car, police said Tuesday.
The baby's grandmother brokered the deal and initially demanded $75,000 but
agreed to cut the price to $30,000 when told the prospective buyer could not
get a bank loan, the Florida Department of Law Enforcement (FDLE) said.
The mother of the eight-week-old boy, Stephanie Bigbee Fleming, 22, of
Bradenton, Florida, was to receive $9,000 of the proceeds, the FDLE said.
"Fleming planned to purchase a new vehicle from the money received," an FDLE
spokeswoman said.
Fleming also needed money to pay court costs for an unrelated probation
violation, the arrest documents said.
Fleming was arrested Tuesday. The grandmother, Patty Bigbee, 45, was
arrested last week with her boyfriend Lawrence Works, 42, both of Holly Hill
, Florida. All three were charged with the illegal sale of a child, and
Bigbee was also charged with communications fraud, the department said.
The arrest report said Bigbee offered to sell the baby to a female relative
in October, explaining she had been caring for her grandchild but "was not
mother material."
The relative alerted police and worked with them during the negotiations.
Bigbee and Works were arrested when they collected a $30,000 cashier's check
and handed over the baby to an undercover agent in a Daytona Beach parking
lot, police said.
The baby remains in state custody. |
