An abandoned baby has been found alive in Sydney, Australia after his mother left him in a storm drain. Police allege the baby had been in the drain since last Tuesday, after having been born on Monday.

Now, the 30-year-old mother of a baby boy found in a drain has been charged with attempted murder. Inspector David Lagats told Daily Mail Australia that the woman is of Pacific Islander background and lives in Sydney. Police are yet to locate the father of the child and have confirmed the mother is not married.

The mother, Saifale Nai, did not appear in court to answer the attempted murder charge. Her lawyer did not enter a plea and the magistrate formally refused her bail.

He was found by cyclists near the overpass of a freeway after they heard him crying and thought it was an animal. Members of the public and police helped lift the 200kg covering of the storm drain and two officers climbed down to rescue the baby. It appears that the child was dropped from the height of a few feet into the drain.

“We actually thought it was a kitten at first, but when we went down there we could hear exactly what it was — you could definitely tell it was a baby screaming,” cyclist David Otte told The Daily Telegraph newspaper.

As is often the case, because the amount of information on the web is virtually limitless, you run across the response to something that had run previously you hadn’t seen. That happened to me today when The Oklahoman ran a letter-to-the-editor responding to its editorial, “When the issue is abortion, plain English discouraged.”

The letter (boxing the editorial board’s ears) comes from “Julie Burkhart, Wichita, Kan.” Her allegiance is not noted. For the record, Burkhart [above] has opened an abortion business (manned by “circuit-rider” abortionists) at the location of the late George Tiller’s infamous abortion clinic. Her response requires we know something about the editorial, which is, say we shall, written circuitously before arriving at a thoughtful conclusion.

The two players referenced in the editorial are Oklahoma County District Judge Bill Graves, who “recently upheld a state law requiring doctors who perform abortions to have admitting privileges at a nearby hospital,” and “Dr. Larry A. Burns, who challenged the Oklahoma law regarding admitting privileges.”

The editorial goes on to note that “Burns performs 44 percent of abortions that occur in Oklahoma. And he’s done them for 40 years. Yet Burns isn’t referred to as an ‘abortionist,’ although his practice clearly focuses on abortion.”

The editorial does a masterful job illustrating why Burns, who aborts and aborts and aborts, wants to be called a “doctor.”

According to the Mayo Clinic, an amniotic fluid embolism is a rare but serious condition that occurs when amniotic fluid — the fluid that surrounds a baby in the uterus during pregnancy — or fetal material, such as hair, enters the maternal bloodstream.

On November 3, Karisa Bugal was scheduled for a routine caesarean section; however doctors quickly discovered she had [the] condition. She had a few options. Karisa could delay giving birth, which could save her life but risk her son’s; she could stay awake for her surgery, but by [the time] the doctors would have put in a spinal tap it’s possible her son would not have made it; or she could have had an emergency caesarean section.

She chose to deliver her son right away and her give him best chance of survival. Tragically, she passed away shortly after he was born; but prior to her death she was able to ask how much he weighed. Her son, Declan Jay Bugal, was born weighing a healthy 7lb 4oz.
