Because she got knocked up, and didn’t have anywhere else to turn, how a woman made the choice of abandoning her own young, from the Front Page Sections, translated…
Two days ago, the collectors of slumps found that there was a dead fetus, with the umbilical cord attached inside one of the slump barrels, after the police sorted through all ten routes and nine hundred fifty collection sites, they’d zoomed in on the escaped Indonesian female migrant worker as the suspect; she said, that as she came to Taiwan in February, she’d found out she was pregnant, after she’d given birth in the house of the people who’d hired her, she saw that the infant wasn’t moving or crying, she thought it was already dead, and that, was why she’d tossed the body into the slump buckets as Indonesian tradition, not knowing that it’d, broken a law.
The D.A.’s examination of the fetus found, that the fetuses that died before birth should be black in color, but this particular corpse looked pink, and they’d suspected that the child was born alive, and they will conduct an autopsy on the infant, to see if the female migrant worker was responsible for murdering her own young, or if she’s just responsible for disposing of the body.
The family who’d hired her said, that two weeks ago, they were introduced by a family friend, to hire her, that because he was busying with his work, he’d not noticed if she was already pregnant or not; just thought, that she was, a bit on the fuller figured side, and wore loose clothes, and had a big appetite, not knowing that she was pregnant, until the cops came to her door, she’d found out, it was a shock to her too.
The Yangmei Police in Taoyuan received a call from the slump collectors, they’d interviewed the truck driver first; and because the body was placed in three coatings of recycling trash bags, that it’d matched the habits of a certain building in the region, and so, the police zoomed in on the building’s residents.
The police reviewed the surveillance camera of the building, and found that at five in the morning two days ago, a woman carried out a bag of trash and a bag of slump, gone to the first floor of the building, and stayed awhile around the slump buckets, after the police confirmed that she was one of the hired maids, they’d immediately talked to the family who’d hired her; the woman who hired her said, that she came here, a bit fuller figured, and two days ago, she’d lost weight all of a sudden, the police suspected that the foreign hired maid gave birth to her young then, tossed him away, they’d immediately called her in.
This female foreign hired maid continually denied having given birth or disposed of the body, until someone from her home country translated the words of the police to her, it’d made her tell the truth. She said, after she was married in Indonesia, she already has a son, and this February, she’d come here, to work as a bed side assistant, that it was too hard on her body, that, was why she’d run off, at the same time, she’d found herself to be pregnant, she’d not dared go to doctors, nor did she get the prenatal exams needed. On the evening of the 26th, she’d given birth on her own in the bathroom, and found, that the fetus was dead, that, was when she’d wrapped him up in the trash bags, and, before anybody could know about it, she’d, tossed him out like trash.
abandonment of children here…
So, this, is a consequence of life, the female migrant worker didn’t have anywhere she could turn, and she did the only she can, she’d given birth on her own, and, after she’d found that the fetus was a stillborn, she’d, disposed of him, but, the baby had been born alive, based off of the coroner’s examinations, so, this woman had, murdered her own young, then, disposed of him like a piece of TRASH!!!
