Oklahoma man arrested after 12-year-old arrives at Tulsa hospital 9 months pregnant

An Oklahoma man has been arrested and charged with first-degree rape for allegedly impregnating a 12-year-old girl. Juan Miranda-Jara, 24, walked into Hillcrest Hospital in Tulsa July 14 with a child in mid-labor.

Doctors called police, telling them they had a rape victim and Miranda-Jara was arrested. "They walked in just like any other couple would, excited to deliver their newborn child," Tulsa Police Officer Danny Bean said. The expecting couple thought the situation was 'kinda fine' and did not see anything wrong with it.

The suspect admitted to police he has been in a relationship with the child since October 2020. Investigators are trying to piece together how the girl’s pregnancy carried through to full-term without anyone alerting police. Social media posts suggest that some of Miranda-Jara's relatives were allegedly aware of his relationship with the minor and approved of it. On his Facebook page, which has since been deleted, Miranda-Jara openly stated that he was in a relationship with the underage girl and shared photos from their recent baby shower.

Miranda-Jara is being held on a $50,000 bond. His first court date is set for August 26.
Miranda-Jara appeared not to understand what all the fuss was about. Despite her young age, the 12-year-old delivered a healthy baby daughter and was later released from the hospital, but without her boyfriend.

9. Can't argue that. My first reaction was, "Get a rope".

It's not as if a DNA test would leave any room for doubt.

The World’s Youngest Mother Who Gave Birth at the Age of 5

https://historyofyesterday.com/the-worlds-youngest-mother-who-gave-birth-at-the-age-of-5-fea0678c3e9d

Lina Marcela Medina is confirmed to be the youngest mother in history, giving birth at the young age of 5 years and 7 months old. Lina was born on September 23, 1933, in Peru. She came from what seemed to be a humble family, her mother by the name of Victoria Losea who was a housemaker and her father by the name of Tiburelo Medina who was a silversmith.

At the age of 5 and 6 months, her parents noticed an abnormal abdominal swelling which at first sight they thought it could have been some sort of tumor but would have never guessed that upon diagnosis from Dr. Gerardo Lozada, Lina was actually 7 months pregnant. At first, the parents didn’t even imagine that it is possible to be pregnant at that age and took Dr. Gerardo for a fool. Therefore they have taken Lina to a specialist which actually confirmed the original diagnosis.
