Illinois Woman Sells Young Son (Joliet, IL) -- An Illinois woman allegedly sold her son yesterday for 100 dollars. The "Joliet Herald-News" reports 28-year-old Jovon Griggs was arrested after a "concerned citizen" told police Griggs was trying to sell the 18-month-old boy. Police then asked that citizen to purchase the child while under supervision. After witnessing the sale, officers arrested Griggs on a misdemeanor charge of endangering the life of a child. She is out on bond, but both the 18-month-old and Griggs eight-year-old son are in state custody. Authorities arent sure why Griggs was trying to sell the child.
