¡Adios, America!

52.Developed-country list of births to girls aged ten or younger:

  One child pregnancy in Switzerland to immigrants from Cameroon. “10-Year-Old Gives Birth to a Child,” Times of India, September 20, 2005, http://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/world/rest-of-world/10-year-old-gives-birth-to-a-child/articleshow/1236732.cms.

  Two child pregnancies in Spain to immigrants from Colombia and gypsy immigrants from Romania. The ten-year-old gypsy girl, Elena Chiritescu, was impregnated by her thirteen-year-old cousin, who had been raised as her brother. See, e.g., Nick Fagge and Tamara Cohen, “Tragic Tale of Star-Crossed Lovers,” Sunday Times (Australia), November 7, 2010. (Luckily for us, the New York Times is on a campaign to bring more gypsies to America!)

  One child pregnancy in Belgium to a ten-year-old girl and a thirteen-year-old father in 2005, about whom no ethnic information is available. Hints that the case did not involve Belgian nationals include the fact that the little girl’s mother was delighted and that a Dutch medical journal’s report on the pregnancy noted that birth control for ten-year-olds was being prescribed mostly to “ethnic girls.” “Doctor Calls 10-Year-Old Belgian Girl’s Birth ‘Dangerous,’” FoxNews.com, October 3, 2007, http://www.foxnews.com/story/2007/10/03/doctor-calls-10-year-old-belgian-girlrsquos-birth-lsquodangerousrsquo/.

  Actual American, William Edward Ronca, struck in 2006.

  One child pregnancy in the United States when, in 2008, Guadalupe Gutierrez-Juarez, thirty-eight, an illegal immigrant from Mexico, was arrested in Idaho, along with his twenty-seven-year-old illegal alien girlfriend, Isabel Chasarez, after the girlfriend’s ten-year-old daughter showed up at an Idaho hospital nine months pregnant and medical staff called the police. Nick Draper, “Child Rapist Sent to Prison,” Idaho Falls (ID) Post Register, November 26, 2008.

  In California, fifty-year-old immigrant Paul Narvios repeatedly raped his girlfriend’s nine-year-old daughter, getting her pregnant. See, e.g., “Girl, 10, Gave Birth—Abuser Sentenced,” San Francisco Gate, September 9, 1999; and [Unnamed story] Associated Press State, September 9, 1999.

  In 2011, a thirty-three-year-old illegal immigrant from Haiti, Fede Datilus, became the fourth “American” child-impregnator after getting a nine-year-old girl in Florida pregnant. See, e.g., Wayne K. Roustan, “Lantana Man Gets Life in Prison for Impregnating Girl, 9,” Sun Sentinel (Fort Lauderdale, FL), March 23, 2011.
