A woman in Florida has been trying to sell her eight-week-old baby son to pay for a new car

Stephanie Bigbee Fleming, 22, was arrested for trying to sell her eight-week-old son to pay for a new car and court debts.

Fleming was arrested yesterday and her mother - Patty Bigbee (left), 45 - was arrested last week with her boyfriend Lawrence Works (right), 42

Stephanie Bigbee Fleming used her mother Patty to broker the deal and initially demanded $75,000 (£38,319) for the infant.

The 22-year-old later agreed to reduce the price to $30,000 (£18,551) when the prospective buyer said they could not get a bank loan.
The Florida Department of Law Enforcement (FDLE) said Fleming was to receive $9,000 (£5,565) from the sale, with her mother taking the rest.
"Fleming planned to purchase a new vehicle from the money received," an FDLE spokeswoman said.
She also needed money to pay court costs for an unrelated probation violation, the arrest documents also revealed.
Fleming was arrested on Tuesday. Her mother, Patty Bigbee was arrested last week with her boyfriend Lawrence Works.
All three have been charged with the illegal sale of a child, and Bigbee was also charged with communications fraud.
Officers said Patty Bigbee had offered to sell the baby to a female relative in October, explaining she had been caring for her grandchild but "was not mother material".
The relative alerted police and worked with them during the negotiations.
The baby remains in state custody.
