Mum threw a baby shower for her 12-year-old daughter with her 24-year-old 'boyfriend'.
After throwing a baby shower for the pregnant girl and her "boyfriend," 24, a 12-year-mother old's has been charged with enabling child sex abuse.
A mother in the United States was arrested after throwing a baby shower for her 12-year-old daughter just before she gave birth to the child of her 24-year-old "boyfriend," who has since been charged with her rape.
Desiree Castaneda has been charged with allowing and encouraging her pre-teen daughter to date Juan Miranda-Jara, who is twice her age.
Miranda-Jara was surprised, according to police in Tulsa, Oklahoma, when officers arrived to arrest him on July 14 at the hospital where his victim was giving birth.
“They came in excited to deliver their newborn child, just like any other couple would,” officer Danny Bean told Fox23.
Miranda-Jara and the girl arrived at a local hospital in the midst of labor, with Miranda-Jara proudly announcing to police that he was the father.
The man appeared displeased that police were involved.
Oklahoma's consent age is sixteen.
“We don't get calls like this every day,” Bean explained. “It was certainly unexpected for everyone involved.”
The Tulsa Police Department shared graphic details of their investigation that culminated in Castaneda's arrest.
Following the arrest of Juan Miranda-Jara, 24, on first-degree rape charges, police inquired about the girl's parents, asking, "Where were they?"
“The investigation established that the victim's mother and family were aware of the victim's relationship with Miranda-Jara.
“The relationship was permitted by the family, and there are photographs of the victim and the suspect receiving a baby shower.”
“At this time, we do not believe this is incest,” officer Bean said, adding that police are continuing to investigate their relationship and how the girl was able to carry a child to full term without anyone reporting it to police.
Castaneda was charged with enabling child sexual abuse and neglect.
According to cops, the victim's father is serving a 12-year prison sentence for an unrelated case of first-degree rape.
Since the case's details became public, the community has been outraged, with many calling the alleged abuse "disgusting" and "gross."
