>Gypsies with drugged babies

Pretty sure I've seen a local version of that around SF, or at least I used to pre-COVID.

I’m not sure what either comment refers to. Can you explain?

[Talanes]

There was a woman who would post up outside the Market St. Muni entrances with an unnaturally quiet baby and a sign saying she needed money for the baby. Same woman was there for multiple years, always with a baby around the same age.

Different baby? Or fake baby?

[ReptileMan]

A beggar mother part of organized crime that hugs her baby that is heavily sedated.

[azinman2]

Is the con saying “oh look how sick my baby is?” Why do they sedate the baby?

[ReptileMan]

I guess for it to be docile. So it won't cry or make trouble.
