"The fetus survived"

Jeff Taylor | December 18, 2004

Is it just me, or is the use of the words "fetus" and "baby" in stories about that bizarre Kansas case very confusing? Politics at work perhaps?

Meanwhile, why can't anyone nail down exactly how a tipster heard about the case and then immediately fingered a suspect? Are there many Internet chat rooms where people somehow disclose their fetus/baby-napping intentions?

Questions, questions.
