    What’s the story with mom? I’m curious as to why babies are being born in jail to begin with.

      Probably a twin situation. Sometimes one twin will strangle the other to death in the womb. In Texas this is punishable by jail as soon as you are born.

      • Woman commits crime.
      • Babby is formed.
      • Woman is convicted of crime, is pregnante. Goes to jail/prison.
      • gregrant women has baby during sentence duration.

        They couldn’t bring her to a hospital for the delivery? Maybe postpone her sentence for the sake of the child. Do anything humane?

        I could see maybe if she was a murderer and a flight risk but it’s also possible she’s doing time for something stupid like being black on a Friday. Which is why I ask, what’s the story with mom?

      Given that fetus are now children, because of skydaddy, she should be able to go after the workers of the jail for kidnapping her.
