29-year-old Daisy Link was being held at the Turner Guilford Knight Correctional Center in Miami-Dade County, Florida, when she met 24-year-old Joan Depaz, initially contacting him through the vents in their prison cells, according to WSVN7.
"You would knock on it and you can hear the people from the different floors. You would stand on the toilet actually to be able to talk to them," said Link. "Being in isolation for so long you begin to spend hours and hours talking to this person, you know, to the point where it's almost as if you're in the same room with them."
...
After Link and Depaz began a romantic relationship, Depaz shared his ambitions to have a child with Link, according to WSVN 7News.
"I always really wanted to have a baby. And I'm not gonna get to do that for a really long time," said Depaz, recounting what he told Link. "So if I had to choose somebody, you know, it would be you. And she was like, 'Yeah, we could do that.'"
Depaz and Link then hatched a plan to create a direct line between each other's cells using bedding. Once they had established this, Depaz began sending Link his own semen wrapped in saran wrap.
...
"I put the semen in Saran Wrap every day like five times a day for like a month straight" he continued.
Link described receiving the packages, which were rolled up "almost like a cigarette", administering them to herself using yeast infection applicators.
After a couple of attempts, Link became pregnant with "a miracle baby", conceiving "like the Virgin Mary," according to Depaz.

Those two cookies are in for murder 1 and murder 2 plus other violent offenses. Just in case other people were wondering why they said they wouldn't get a chance to be a parent for a very long time.

I got the sense that he was stockpiling his…product, and then shipping it over the border once he had accumulated enough for a proper insemination attempt. I hate everything about what I just typed.

Considering that sperm die pretty fast outside the body it's more likely it was "fresh".

Anyone can be a father. But it takes semen in Saran Wrap every day like five times a day for like a month straight to be a dad.

They might be in there for a long time, no conjugal allowed. It's possible when they get out - they won't be able to have kids, so they did this.
Us prison system is a brutal dehumanizing place
Flocklesscrow@lemm.ee · 0 pts · 1y
So FUCKING WHAT. Having the biological ability to create progeny does not mean everyone is entitled to be a parent. Because most people are not good parents. Most just perpetuate whatever shitty abuse they suffered and the cycle continues.
It's not the child's fault, but the child will now be tossed into a world where they are incredibly more statistically likely to be abused, to grow up without financial and emotional support, to be in foster care, and ultimately to be an adult with a dramatically lower potential for a happy and thriving life.
They should charge these two idiots with reckless child endangerment. And charge the warden and guards with whatever will stick; obviously they failed in their duty as well.
Prison should be for rehabilitation, but that's obviously never been the system we have in America. The 13th Amendment should be abolished. That doesn't mean we should be condoning and abetting the procurement of additional downtrodden. This poor kid never had a chance.

To save any other Britons having to search it, "Saran Wrap" is American for "Cling Film".

They are accused murderers. Meaning they won't likely getting out till old AF and never going to be able to have kids.
There is very good chance they did this for that reason.
gramie@lemmy.ca · 18 pts · 1y
I don't know, I am more inclined to believe that they found a way to meet up and have sex, but they are trying to hide that so they don't get into trouble. Maybe the facility is going along with it, so they don't get into trouble either.

This reminded me of a story in "Archipelago Gulag." Bear in mind, some gulags were absolutely vast.
So at least in this particular gulag, women and men had separate dormitories, but men often visited the ladies' huts and openly got it on, resulting in a lot of pregnancies. Pregnant women didn't need to work and after their 2nd (3rd?) child, they were discharged and could go home.
The guards finally managed to keep the intruders out, but now, men and women just met after work, out in the open. Guards put up barbed wire to gender-separate the areas. Pregnancies surged even harder. How so? You see, the wire did not touch the ground in all places. So the men got down under the wire, on their backs. The women squatted down, and...
The guards then put up a solid fence, but good jumpers/ climbers could get over it, so... pregnancies, still. Finally, they made the fence so tall that the baby-making stopped... almost entirely.

Hopefully these two never meet in person because their relationship would suddenly end very quickly.

Schmoo@slrpnk.net · 23 pts · 1y
If we assume this story to be true, and they really did set up an elaborate semen delivery mechanism using bed sheets strung through the ventilation system, that practically guarantees mutual consent. Every part of this scheme requires the full cooperation of both parties.
SeattleRain@lemmy.world · -29 pts · 1y
Why is forcing men to have children funny but not women. So you'd think this was funny if a man got a woman pregnant by covering her dildo in his semen that he received consensually but the woman didn't realize his semen was on it.
Y'all liberal Reddit refuges hate men so much it's unreal.
Schmoo@slrpnk.net · 21 pts · 1y
Did we read the same story? Both the man and the woman in this story were willing participants. You're so dead set on being aggrieved by imagined persecution against men that you have to conjure up fantasies to validate your resentment.

The article describes it as his idea. He asked her if she wanted a baby, she agreed and they concocted a harebrained scheme to pull it off in a way that required mutual effort to enact and was probably more awkward and uncomfortable for both parties than pleasurable. So yeah, pardon my belief that he consented.
