In a bizarre and controversial case, an accused murderer in Florida has claimed that she conceived a child with a fellow inmate without any physical contact.
Daisy Link, 29, who is currently incarcerated at the Turner Guilford Knight Correctional Center for allegedly killing her husband last year, gave birth to a baby girl in June. She asserts that the child belongs to Joan Depaz, 23, another inmate at the facility.
According to reports, the two women developed a romantic relationship through conversations carried out via their cell vents.
The unusual method of conception allegedly involved passing semen through the air conditioning vents using plastic wrap and bedsheets. This unconventional act of intimacy has raised eyebrows, with authorities investigating the circumstances surrounding the claim.
“Being in isolation for so long you begin to spend hours and hours talking to this person, you know, to the point where it’s almost as if you’re in the same room with them,” Link told the publication.
Depaz, who wanted to be a father, supposedly sent his semen to Link, who said: “I put the semen in Saran Wrap every day like five times a day for like a month straight,” according to the same report.
The two had realised their jail cells were attached by an air vent.
Depaz said: “I told her a way that one of my friends had shown me through the vent. Because the vent is like a L-shape, really. It drops right into my vent. From her room, she could throw a pen into the vent and it’ll land right into my vent.”
Link explained how she then got pregnant with Depaz’s semen, which he would roll up with Saran wrap every day.
“He would kind of roll [the semen] up almost like a cigarette and he would attach it to the line that we had in the vent and I would pull it through,” Link said. “From there, I had placed it inside of the yeast infection applicators. I had placed it inside of there and then from there I administered it.”
Currently, Link’s family is looking after the infant, whom Link has called “a blessing” and a “miracle baby”.
Depaz said Link is “like the Virgin Mary,” as he denied any physical interaction.
Both inmates are still in custody, awaiting their trials.
