In Canada, a couple from Vancouver posted an ad last year to sell their baby for $10,000. They were not charged for the said ad because they claimed that it was just a sick joke. Pete and Granholm admitted on posting the ads but that Pete was just joking when he posted the ad to sell their week-old baby. Now, that may seem to be just an alibi as they had previous cases of theft and obstruction charges as well as fraud which they claimed to be a thing of the past.
The couple has been charged with fraud for their involvement in the credit card stealing group that involves 5 other people. The 7 people had made a spending spree from June 8 to July 16 amounting to $80,000 with purchases such as electronics, tickets and even a limousine ride.
The couple had been on the headlines last year for their “sick joke” ad but are now in the news again and this time, they can’t make any “sick joke” alibis with the charges against them.
