Wholesale Baby Farming: Startling Revelations: At the Birmingham Police Court, last week, Ann Pinsent, a midwife, living at Nechells, Birmingham, was charged with concealing the birth of a child of a single woman named Reader. Mr. Jesse Herbert (instructed by the Town Clerk) appeared for the prosecution and explained that the police had had considerable difficulty in the case, owing to the child not having as yet been traced. The evidence of the mother, however, would show that she was confined at the prisoner’s house on the 15th of January, that the child was born alive, and that the lady was on the following day sent away by the prisoner, who represented that death had ensued from convulsions. Since the prisoner was first arrested, the learned counsel added, the skeletons of no fewer than eleven infants had been found buried in a garden adjoining the prisoner’s house. Evidence having been given as to the child being born alive, the prisoner was, on the application, of the police, further remanded for a week. According to a statement of Detective Sergeant Mountford, young women have been in the habit of being confined at the prisoner’s house, and no one can tell what has become of the children.
