TUPELO – A Tupelo woman is facing a felony charge and up to 10 years in prison for allegedly trying to sell her son.
Kathryn Herring, 31, was formally charged with offering to sell a child Wednesday afternoon. According to Tupelo Police detective Lt. Lynette Sandlin, the arrest was the result of an investigation that began in February.
“Citizens came forward and alerted authorities that she was trying to sell her child,” said Sandlin. “It’s been a lengthy investigation, and we have documented that on numerous occasions, she tried to sell the child for profit.”
The Department of Human Services placed the 18-month-old boy in foster care months ago when the allegations emerged.
