Baby Found With Dust Bunnies


This baby, whose name is Shannon Dedrick, was reported missing by her mother five days ago; however, she was found in a box under her babysitter's bed today. She wasn't crying and she appeared to have been cared for.

As if that isn't strange enough, it appears that the baby's mother gave the child to the babysitter.

This is what goes on in Florida when you let people out of their double wides.

Everybody's got different names but they're all sort of related. I really can't be bothered listing everyone's name and what they have to do with each other. You'll have to take my word on it. Let us just say that the baby's father is the babysitter's stepbrother.

The babysitter, whose name is Susan Baker, once had a stepson who mysteriously disappeared in North Carolina 22 years ago. She and her husband did some jail time for that, but the boy's body was never found.

And apparently Ms. Baker, with the missing and presumed dead stepson, wrote a letter to the Governor (I'm amazed she can actually write) asking for custody of little Shannon because her parents did drugs in front of her, and so on and so forth. I guess somehow she decided she was Mom of the Year.

I'm hoping the authorities get the kid away from these people, out of their town and preferably out of their state.
