It was one of the most bizarre sex crimes in recent Tulsa history. Now it’s over, and both adults involved are headed to prison.

The 12-year-old girl showed up a Hillcrest Hospital in midtown Tulsa in July 2021 in labor.

The father-to-be apparently expected to walk out with the girl and their new bundle of joy.

“They walked in just like any other couple would, excited to deliver their newborn child,” Tulsa Police Officer Danny Bean told FOX23 News in 2021.

When the child, well below the age of consent, showed up to give birth, doctors immediately called Tulsa Police to report what was happening.

    RAPE! She helped him RAPE!

    GET THE FUCKING HEADLINES CORRECT.

    A 12 year old did not “get pregnant by grown man.” She was FUCKING RAPED!

    Holy shit, it implies the issue here was the getting pregnant. There’s a little something that occurred before that and it was called RAPE!

      I would also point out the human trafficking by pimping out your own child. Really need some sort of extra charge for that one, something about abusing a position of power.

      I’m not sure whether the rape or the non-consentual pregnancy and forced birth is worse…

      Then there’s the fate of the child born to the kind of monster that would pay to do this…

      I read this article about an underage marriage, and while it explains how they get to that point in a more specific way, these are still men who rape children incapable of consent. No matter how you slice it, it’s rape.
