This is simply dreadful. I'm not sure 3 years in jail is enough. But I am not certain as to what happened to the baby.... Does anyone know ?

It says
The father has since taken custody of his child.

Thanks grasscarp...I missed that ! Well, a sort of happy ending then it would seem. To kids, restored to their Dads in one week.

This is a local story - totally bizarre.

[mikey4444]

I am not sure how these two awful women thought that they would get away with it !

[wolf63]

Looking at the pictures that the local papers printed a few weeks back I would guess that they weren't very bright.

Having said that they did set up a fake Facebook account (yet - my girl cat has her own FB a/c so that isn't much proof of intelligence).

Locally there was an unexplained death where a woman lay dead for a couple of days before the police found her. Her three year old son was alone with her for this period. It is very sad.

From YOUR Link Mikey

///The father has since taken custody of his child.///

You really should read them sometime!

[ummmm]

HaHa Baldric...the first answer on the thread pointed that out...

[hc4361]

Who are the two women, mikey? Am I missing something?

I assume for three years this child has been raised by someone he believes to be his parent, who is now in jail. To be removed from that person must be traumatic for the child.

It's a right pickle.

Grasscarp noticed.

[mikey4444]

hc...in order to protect the child, I don't think that the names of the mother or the lesbian are being publicised, which seems reasonable to me. This story is just dreadful and shows how evil some people can be.

[hc4361]

What lesbian? Are you sure it isn't a gay man that was named as the father and the natural mother as the mother on the birth certificate?

[Baldric]

ummmm @ 1855,
you are so right, I just didn't think it provided enough detail, so
enhanced it!

[Baldric]

As hc said, What Lesbian?

I am not sure if this link helps or not.
