Using the cell phone number that was listed in the ad the police were able to arrest both of the parents.

The 23-year-old mother and 25-year-old father told police that the offer was a hoax but they were arrested and charged with public mischief with other criminal charges possible as the investigation continues.

The baby girl is now in the hands of social workers.

The ad described the infant as “very cute” and said that the parents couldn’t afford to care for her and wanted to give her to a good home.

While the parents may think that putting a child up on Craigslist is a good joke what will that child think later in life?
