Utah woman charged with human trafficking for allegedly attempting to smuggle a 6-day-old baby out of the Philippines has been arrested on an additional count of kidnapping, authorities said.
She pulled down her mask and said, “I object to this press conference without my attorney and the embassy present.”
Jennifer Talbot stands between two agents of the National Bureau of Investigation on Feb. 19, 2020 in Manila, Philippines.Talbot had planned to board a Delta Air Lines flight to the United States with the baby on Sept. 4, according to prosecutors. After discovering the baby, airline staff called immigration personnel, who arrested Talbot at the airport. The baby was turned over to government welfare personnel.
The prosecutors said that Talbot presented an affidavit at the airport, allegedly from the baby's mother giving consent for the newborn to travel to the U.S., but it had not been signed by the mother. Officials said no government travel approval had been issued for the baby, prompting them to file human trafficking charges last year against Talbot. Talbot also violated at least two other laws, kidnapping and illegal detention, the prosecutors said.
Talbot was served with an arrest warrant for kidnapping on Monday while she was attending a court hearing related to the trafficking charge. There is no bail available for kidnapping.
