A Missouri mother and father reportedly left their young son at a local courthouse, effectively abandoning him without adequate care, because they believed he would be removed from their custody anyway.
Jeremy Lamp, 36, and 31-year-old Jessica Lamp reportedly dropped their son off at the Livingston County Courthouse in Chillicothe without "any clothes, food or other infant care". This led to child neglect charges being levied against them, according to their probable cause statements filed in circuit court.
