This week on Weird and Wacky Wednesday a woman was caught trying to sell her newborn to pay for a nose job, a young girl caused a big accident for watching Netflix while driving, and a man in the UK mooned a judge after being sentenced to jail.
Follow the jump and learn more about this week’s weirdest and wackiest cases from around the globe!
Baby for nose job…seems fair
A Russian woman has recently made news after it was discovered that she sold her newborn son to a couple for $3,200 USD. The reason? Apparently, it was for her to be able to afford a rhinoplasty surgery, that she claims would help improve her breathing.
She was arrested in late May after local authorities had been tipped off that this woman had illegally sold her five-day-old son earlier in the month.
The couple who adopted the child were also charged for taking part in this illegal adoption process, but they denied ever paying the woman any money.
from the mugshots the police have of her, it looks like she never actually got the chance to have the surgery she sold her newborn child to be able to afford.
Stranger Things is too binge-worthy
A young girl from Minneapolis was lucky to escape with her life after she was distracted while driving and swerved into oncoming traffic and almost head-first into a semi-trailer. What caused this distraction? Well, it was the latest season of Stranger Things that had taken up all of the girl’s focus.
Luckily for her, the truck driver she almost ran into wasn’t distracted and managed to swerve off to the side of the road to avoid a head-on collision, but the girl’s car still made contact and ended up rolling over.
While in the beginning, she tried to deny she was watching anything, the police found her Bluetooth was playing Netflix.
Now I know the show is super popular, so maybe she had to watch it on her way to work to avoid any spoilers? Still, we all know the rule about texting and driving, maybe we need to add a section in the rules about bingeing and driving.
Check out this full moon
A man in Newcastle showed his dislike to the judge who handed down his sentence in court in the most childish way possible…he turned around and mooned them.
The case wasn’t actually happening in person, but rather it was over a video hearing. He was in court after he got in trouble for making serious threats against his probation officers.
After he was put on mute for swearing, he took it upon himself to stick up his middle finger and then turn around and show his bare behind to the camera.
