Texas, November 6: In a shocking incident from US’ Texas, a 21-year-old woman named Juniper Bryson was arrested after reportedly attempting to sell her newborn son on Facebook just hours after his birth.

According to reports, Bryson, citing financial struggles, asked for funds to secure an apartment, transportation, or a job to regain custody of her older daughter. In one post, Bryson clarified, “It’s not even like that, just enough to move into an apartment so I can work…or any car to get to different places to DoorDash.” US Shocker: Woman Caught on Camera Poisoning Husband’s Coffee With Bleach, Strikes Plea Deal to Avoid Prison.
