If you can't afford a c section, try a public hospital in a poor urban area, especially in a liberal state. Generally, the price is affordable. Call ahead, ask if they do c-sections and see what they say. One doctor in an affluent neighborhood, private hospital, would c section every kid. No exceptions. So, find out if its needed.

It was stupid of him to rat on himself just out of vengeance. Did he really think he would get to keep the 75,000? That's a lot of money. He may have been ripped off but he really should have just shut his mouth and learned his lesson.
Why? he came up with the plan he should get punished accordingly, and she was dumb enough to go through with it and should thus be punished accordingly, you do the crime, you do the time according to your crime, they commited different crimes
Why are you assuming she followed him out of stupid and not malice? It's not just men who are greedy and evil. They should both get the same sentence because that's how the LAW works. Ever heard of "The law is the same for everyone"?
Imagine all the people who did this and didn’t get caught. That’s why I don’t feel bad when people refuse to donate to charities online even when they can tbh

This is why people don't often want to help people in need, because of the risk of scammers. My suggestion to anyone wanting to help someone, instead of giving them money. Offer to actually buy them something, like a sandwich (or a blanket, clothes, etc) or try and find a service/place that helps support the homeless. Although I wouldn't just advise you to buy someone something, just in case of things like allergies or health issues, always ask first. Any scammer isn't going to want actual help, they're there for your money. Unless they're really committed to playing the long game and their role, most won't accept such help.
My takeaway is being a female gets you half the sentence. So much for equality. The judicial system is obviously not blind. That woman spent more than half the money

AND THAT is one reason I Never share money with individuals or organizations. Save the Children did a Christmas Drive about 10 years ago. Familes in need were to get all they needed to cook a holiday meal, turkey, potatoes, the works AND the children were to all receive books I believe in the power of reading. Long BS story short - The Children Never Received Their Books🤬 Third reason I don't share money: The pregnant homeless woman, after a good days haul of cash, went down around the corner, down an ally, got in her Benz and drove to the home she owned where no nursery was prepped because she was Fat, not pregnant! I'm in my 70s, disabled, in failing health, make do on $1,000. a month and get Testy when young able-bodies walk up to me in my WheelChair to beg money😠 Well now, that was bottled up and shot out like a 🍾champagne Cork😂 Thanks to anyone who rode That!
it’s always the people that don’t need it. i was given 500 in donations after i was illegally abandoned by foster care after being abused as a disabled very sick teen after being homeless for a long time while battling a tumour and a huge surgery. that 500 got me on my feet. now i live on 700 a month. sorry i’m just pissed these kinds of people get donations that could cure me and make my life whole again (as in adequate care to continue my highschool career and get a job even)
Speaking from someone who spent 20 years on the streets homeless this rarely happens so don't go out and not help out someone in need because you think that it's a potential scam. This is why gift cards are perfect. Choose one from a place that's close by. Remember you can't eat for $5 a day. If it's a gift card for a grocery store at least try to put up to 50 bucks on it if you can. Of course $5 is great don't get me wrong. Gift cards cannot be returned to the store for cash value. Most stores won't let you buy alcohol or cigarettes with a gift card either.
I remember this story. His image was the MAIN draw, although the story played a part. Since Kaitlyn(?) and her BF would've gotten 2/3 of the take, they should've given him AT LEAST $125000. They STILL would have gotten the lion's share, but it wouldn't have been so glaringly obvious that they ripped him off. Greed is a dangerous drug.
I think they both deserve jail, but why did she get less time for the same crime. "Master mind" means nothing she knew the plan and acted out the plan. Perhaps there is more to the case.
the "more to this case" is that he is a man when a man is the mastermind, he gets more time for thinking of the crime when a man isn't the mastermind, he gets more time for committing the crime
This is when you open a "non-profit" and take exorbitant amount in salaries for project manager and admin. You gotta be at least a little smart, and borderline transparent, and give less than 5% for development of the target beneficiaries.

This is why a lot of people only donate very selectively. People that do this ruined it for those who really need help.
I think i remember hearing about this when it happened.
All this accomplishes is making it harder for people to trust.
I was just about to go to the comments and say the first good woman I've seen in a while
It's not our fault that no women want to talk to you bud
Sometimes greed pervents greed from greeding properly
AND THAT is one reason I Never share money with individuals or organizations. Save the Children did a Christmas Drive about 10 years ago. Familes in need were to get all they needed to cook a holiday meal, turkey, potatoes, the works AND the children were to all receive books I believe in the power of reading. Long BS story short - The Children Never Received Their Books🤬
Third reason I don't share money: The pregnant homeless woman, after a good days haul of cash, went down around the corner, down an ally, got in her Benz and drove to the home she owned where no nursery was prepped because she was Fat, not pregnant!
I'm in my 70s, disabled, in failing health, make do on $1,000. a month and get Testy when young able-bodies walk up to me in my WheelChair to beg money😠
Well now, that was bottled up and shot out like a 🍾champagne Cork😂
Thanks to anyone who rode That!
Lesson for today, scamming for money is only legal for the gov ✨✨✨
I remember their story causing a whole ripple effect on people.
No good deed goes unpunished.
Thanks for bringing it full circle
And I'm glad they went to prison instead of getting slapped on the wrist with a few years probation
I like how sad they look as if they just don't get why their offer wasn't good enough for him
They didn't deserve prison time. If ppl are stupid enough to hand money to a homeless they deserved to be fooled.
They absolutely do because scamming is illegal and you probably should too
it’s always the people that don’t need it. i was given 500 in donations after i was illegally abandoned by foster care after being abused as a disabled very sick teen after being homeless for a long time while battling a tumour and a huge surgery. that 500 got me on my feet. now i live on 700 a month. sorry i’m just pissed these kinds of people get donations that could cure me and make my life whole again (as in adequate care to continue my highschool career and get a job even)
It's hard to be genuinely nice these days.
This should stop giving on go fund me. There are so many known and more unknown fake stories. 😢😢
THERE'S NO DEPTH Of LOWNESS PEOPLE WON'T STRIVE FOR
Lesson: helping it's an art. You have to do deep research or stay local. Giving money away is not necessarily helping.
Stealing from homeless people has to be the most pathetic thing ever
The guy wasnt even homeless, he was part of the act, the "unfair" overall payment that he got was the thing that got them caught
This is why as a human beings, sometimes im scared to donate
I was pretty sure people were doing this. It’s sad because it makes it where you can’t trust anybody anymore.
this is why i don't trust anything on the internet... greed ruins everything
Money is not the root of all evil....it is THE LOVE OF MONEY that does it.
I never give anyone my money, no matter how sad or touching the story is.
Speaking from someone who spent 20 years on the streets homeless this rarely happens so don't go out and not help out someone in need because you think that it's a potential scam. This is why gift cards are perfect. Choose one from a place that's close by. Remember you can't eat for $5 a day. If it's a gift card for a grocery store at least try to put up to 50 bucks on it if you can. Of course $5 is great don't get me wrong. Gift cards cannot be returned to the store for cash value. Most stores won't let you buy alcohol or cigarettes with a gift card either.
stuck in the middle of a highway at night and given $20 to materialize gas out of nowhere.
I remember this story. His image was the MAIN draw, although the story played a part.
Since Kaitlyn(?) and her BF would've gotten 2/3 of the take, they should've given him AT LEAST $125000. They STILL would have gotten the lion's share, but it wouldn't have been so glaringly obvious that they ripped him off.
Greed is a dangerous drug.
imagine how many of these stories we don’t expose and they actually get away probs a disgusting amount tbh the world is run by con artists
There's no cure for stupidity...
Sadly my gofund me got nothing in 2015 when I broke my knee so I ended up losing my rented home.
America greatest country on the planet 😂😂
Moral of the story no backstabbing in greedy work
I think they both deserve jail, but why did she get less time for the same crime. "Master mind" means nothing she knew the plan and acted out the plan. Perhaps there is more to the case.
the "more to this case" is that he is a man
when a man is the mastermind, he gets more time for thinking of the crime
when a man isn't the mastermind, he gets more time for committing the crime
AYO!!! I remembered this story from Ray!! The truth is always sucks
I hope that the money still goes to the homeless
I had forgotten about this...situation. It still pisses me off.
No honor amongst thieves...shocking 😮
😢 SAD, ONE Spoiling it
For Everyone Else 😢😢😢
This is exactly why I never give away money to anyone that doesn’t give anything to me.
I completely forgot about this story. I remembered when all this went down on the Internet.
This is when you open a "non-profit" and take exorbitant amount in salaries for project manager and admin. You gotta be at least a little smart, and borderline transparent, and give less than 5% for development of the target beneficiaries.
That was here in Philly where I live. This story was crazy, ingenious and evil all at Xmas time
Disgusting. This is why so many people are reticent about helping.
People who prey on other people's kindness are truly evil
There's a reason greed is one of the deadly sins
