LEGAL KIDNAPPING: This Mom Checked Her Newborn Out of the Hospital Early, The Next Day Her Baby Was Taken Away.

Tiffany Langwell was thrilled to find out she was pregnant again at the age of 38. She had two children from her first marriage — a 15-year-old girl and a 9-year-old boy. After separating from their father, she had reconnected with a high school boyfriend, David Hodek, and they had gotten engaged. In August of this year, their baby girl was born healthy, at 8 pounds, with bright blue eyes and a full head of downy hair. Langwell and Hodek had what they describe as a blissful first night home.

The next day, a representative of the child welfare agency in Riverside County, California, took the infant into protective custody.

Wait. Hold on.

She had two children from her first marriage — a 15-year-old girl and a 9-year-old boy. After separating from their father, she had reconnected with a high school boyfriend, David Hodek, and they had gotten engaged.

So she took two children from their father so she could hook up with her high-school sweetheart?

If her husband had left her, or if he had abused her, that information would have made it into the article so we could sympathize with her more. But no, she separated from him, period. This means that she left without cause.

And now she’s getting worked up over someone taking her child? Welcome to the club, sister.
