Woman Caught Trying To Smuggle Newborn In Carry On Luggage

A woman was caught trying to smuggle a newborn baby out of the Philippines by hiding her in her carry on luggage. The woman, named Jennifer Erin Talbot, who is from the U.S. boarded a Delta flight yesterday (September 4th) to Detroit with a baby from Ninoy Aquino International Airport in Manila. During the security check, the baby -- who was only six days old, was discovered in her carry on bag. Talbot told officials that she was the child's aunt but had no documentation to prove it. Bureau of Immigration officials said in a statement, “[The] infant was hidden in the oversized belt bag and [she] did not declare nor present to the immigration inspector during departure formalities." The National Bureau of Investigation said they will likely file child trafficking charges against her. (NY Post)
