A 70-year-old woman has been arrested in the US after shocking claims emerged that she tried to trade a foster child for a monkey. Brenda Ruth Deutsch is now facing serious charges, including child abuse, neglect, and endangerment, following an investigation into disturbing allegations.
Authorities in Lincoln County, Missouri, say several exotic monkeys were discovered at Deutsch’s home. What’s raised eyebrows — and alarm bells — is the suggestion that at least two of those monkeys arrived shortly after she allegedly sent a foster child in her care to a property in Texas, reported the Mirror.
