how creepy is this: man sneaks into neonatal unit and bottle feeds baby

https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/crime/iowa-man-arrested-for-sneaking-into-hospital-feeding-baby-that-wasn-t-his/ar-AATmJXU

According to the Des Moines Police, on December 28, 2021, a man snuck into a secured area in the neonatal intensive care unit at a MercyOne hospital by misrepresenting himself as a baby’s father. He was caught on video bottle-feeding the baby.

Police arrested Adam Wedig, 36, of Des Moines, on two counts of criminal trespassing. Wedig’s motive is unknown, but it is not believed that was trying to harm the baby, according to the Des Moines Police.

Unless it’s changed since I had my kids, the father was also given a wristband that he always had to show. Entrances were locked up tighter than Fort Knox, and the nurses always checked our IDs against the baby’s ankle bracelet before leaving him or her with us. How in the hell did he do this?

Neonatal ICU, no less. SMDH.
