It Was a Suspected ‘Birth Tourism’ Site. Then Came Late-Night Screams.


One of the adults, who was stabbed in the leg, was the 31-year-old father of one of the infants, the police said. The other adult, a 63-year-old-woman who was stabbed in the torso, was a co-worker of the employee, according to the police. “We think it had something to do with immigration and citizenship,” the law enforcement official said. “It had something to do with their desire to have the kids as American citizens and it would eventually help the parents.”Officials do not know if the mothers will take them back home in what appeared to be a “maternity tourism” or “birth tourism” operation. Typically, “birth tourists” are people with sufficient money to travel from foreign countries to give birth in the United States.
