Value of gun exceeds child
What a peach! Hope this kid gets a chance to have a real parent
someday. Welcome to the third world.
PHOENIX (AP) - Authorities say they have arrested a Mesa woman who
allegedly tried to trade her 2-year-old daughter for a gun.
Maricopa County Sheriff's deputies went to the home of 33-year-old
Tanya Nareau on Tuesday after receiving a tip about the swap.
While at Nareau's home, a family friend who had the child confirmed to
deputies that Nareau gave the girl to him for a gun.
Deputies say Nareau felt that the friend would do a better job in
raising the child. They say Nareau also claimed she could not buy a
weapon because she's prohibited to do so by law.
Authorities say Nareau has been booked into county jail. She's charged
with the unlawful sale of a child and solicitation to possess a weapon
by a prohibited person.
It was unclear whether Nareau had a lawyer.
