Details On Florida Inmates Who Conceived Child Behind Bars Without Meeting

Daisy Link and Joan Depaz, who were held at the Turner Guilford Knight Correctional Center in Miami-Dade County, spoke to WVSN about how it all went down. Per The Independent, Daisy Link and Joan Depaz said they never met in person but somehow had a baby together. Law & Crime reports they allegedly started talking through air conditioning vents in their cells. When they spoke to WSVN, Link called their child “a miracle baby,” and Depaz compared the conception to “the Virgin Mary.”

Link explained that she easily bonded with Depaz because they spent so much time talking.

“Being in isolation for so long you begin to spend hours and hours talking to this person, you know, to the point where it’s almost as if you’re in the same room with them,” Link said.

Depaz then remembered telling her he wanted to have a baby, but he couldn’t for a while since he was allegedly facing a first-degree murder charge, according to Law & Crime. From there, they made a plan.

“I always really wanted to have a baby. And I’m not gonna get to do that for a really long time. So if I had to choose somebody, you know, it would be you,” Depaz said.

Daisy Link explained that she got pregnant through the prison’s vent system. The two figured out that she could drop something from her vent, and it would land in Depaz’s. Depaz allegedly wrapped his reproductive fluid in Saran wrap five times a day for a month straight. She reportedly placed it in yeast infection applicators and inserted them into her body.

“He would kind of roll it up almost like a cigarette, and he would attach it to the line that we had in the vent, and I would pull it through,” Link stated.

After a few tries, Daisy became pregnant. Their baby girl was born on June 19 and is now five months old, living with Joan Depaz’s mother. In her WSVN interview, Daisy shared her surprise that their plan actually worked and said she has high hopes for their daughter.

“I can’t believe it worked. I think everything happened for a reason. She could be anything. I think that she’s gonna be something great,” Link said.
