"The baby appeared to be only a few hours old when the passerby found the infant about 6 a.m. The infant was making noises after being tucked behind a wall near Hardwick Street and Lakewood Boulevard, authorities said."

This is a block from our house the sad part is there is a fire station around one corner and a police station across the mall from this. Could have left it at either.

That is heartbreaking.

Interesting FFact: My family found an abandoned infant like this once. (before the infant drop-off law) Long story short, the adoptive family got in touch with us later using info from the newspaper articles, and we exchange Christmas cards each year.

I think many people, especially those who have had run-ins with law enforcement or are in an environment where they are discouraged against trusting anyone in "the establishment", don't believe there are no repercussions for using a safe haven drop off site.
