A 25-year-old mother of two from Indiana has confessed to authorities that she sold her two very young children for sex about eight times.
According to the Post-Tribune, Natisha Hillard of Gary has plead guilty to one count of selling a child for sex, along with two counts of letting a child be a part of child pornography. Reportedly, Hillard claims that she met a man named Christopher M. Bour through an online dating service, and when they first started hanging out, he showed an interest in her two children, one who was only FOUR MONTHS at the time and the other, 3 years old at the time when his crimes would begin. He eventually wound up sexually abusing them, and pictures were found of the 39-year-old man touching the children inappropriately, with Hillard actually in the background of some of the photos. Sexual photos of the eldest child were also found in Bour’s possession, and he reportedly paid extra to be alone with the child.
Hillard told authorities that she allowed Bour to do such things because she needed the money, but admitted that she never knew what he was doing with the images. “He didn’t tell me what he was going to do with them.”
Well, he had been showing the photos to a few people. According to the Huffington Post, Bour was caught because he was asking a female friend to join in on his crimes, once sending her a text message that said, “U wanna watch me play with a baby tomorrow a real one ;)” The acquaintance called authorities and Bour was subsequently arrested after having assaulted the two children from September 2011 until February 2013.
Bour has actually plead “not guilty” to the charges against him and is being held without bond, while Hillard, who is also being held without bond, faces a mandatory 30 years in prison to life sentence for the act of selling her children for sex. Both of these individuals are the scum of the earth and I really have no other words for them or their actions. But what do you make of this horrible situation?
