Juniper Bryson
People hate, but a bitch gotta get she money.
A pregnant 21-year-old Texas woman tried to sell her unborn baby to the “highest bidder” and shook down would-be desperate adoptive parents for cash in the maternity ward, according to cops.
Juniper Bryson posted in September on a group for adoptive parents looking for “adoptive parents” just days before she was set to give birth.
One of her alleged marks was Wendy Williams who responded to the post, signed legal paperwork to adopt the baby, and traveled to the hospital for the birth, Williams told ABC 13.
The baby she tried to sell.
But at the maternity ward, she learned the “adoption” was a scam, said.
In reality, Bryson had spent the last days of her pregnancy shopping the unborn baby around online and demanding cash payments from would-be parents, and was “waiting for the highest bidder in exchange for her son” while lying in the recovery room, cops say.
Her effort to sell the child began as early as Sept. 21, just three days before the baby was born, when Bryson asked a distant relative for help finding a home for her son, court documents allege.
The relative then wrote a Facebook post that said: “She needs someone there during labor and take baby boy home. She doesn’t want him going into foster care.”
But in a follow-up message exchange, Bryson told the relative that whomever takes the child was “gonna have to compensate,” phone records show, prompting the relative to respond with, “that’s illegal!”
I don’t really see how this is much different from the adoption system. The “real adoption” people are just mad because the mother is getting the money instead.
