This police report caused goosebumps: in mid-August, an 85-year-old Austrian resident allegedly offered a totally shocked mother $100,000 for her eight-year-old daughter in the parking lot of a supermarket in the city of Port Orange, Florida.
Laughing, he replied to alarmed officials: “We all love children!” The suspect was – as usual in America – a sex offender registered in a publicly accessible official database.
$200,000 “offer”
Because doubly unbelievable: in 2019 the Austrian-American had already offered a mother money for her then eight-year-old daughter – in this case $ 200,000. But the Austrian no longer comes before an earthly court. The 85-year-old died in prison following a medical emergency.
