A Florida prison inmate has been compared to the Virgin Mary after falling pregnant with the child of another inmate despite the two never having met face to face.

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.

    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.
