An Arkansas couple, aged 21 and 20, has been arrested for allegedly trying to sell their two-month-old baby to a man at a campground. The couple faces felony charges of endangering the welfare of a minor and attempting to accept compensation for relinquishment of a minor.
The incident came to light when the manager of the Hide Away Campground reported to the Benton County Sheriff's Office that the couple had attempted to exchange their baby for a six-pack of beer and $1,000. Witnesses corroborated the attempted adoption, and the child was found in need of medical attention upon discovery.
