He's fine, as far as physically. The guy never hurt him. |
He's very traumatized because of what he witnessed. He's asking a lot about his mother. |
It's like a battered child syndrome where she was being abused over a period of time, and was obviously the only one, since the other children had no injuries. |
Mothers don't have to face prosecution, they will remain anonymous and cops will not look for them. |
People don't have to leave (babies) in dangerous areas. They can safely surrender them. |
She was receiving adoption subsidies for the children while they were in Africa. She was getting close to $500 for each one of the children. |

We think his name is David, but we don't know. He doesn't talk. He is very clingy. He will not let go of whoever is holding him. |
We'll be looking into where his mother was, how long he was outside and whether anyone was watching him. |
We're going to try to get him some therapy services right away. |
