🚨 The Wild Claim:

Two inmates in Miami’s Turner Guilford Knight Correctional Center — both facing murder charges — reportedly conceived a baby together without ever touching, seeing, or meeting in person.

They were housed in separate cells.
They used only a vent, Saran wrap, and a yeast infection applicator.
And somehow — a healthy baby girl was born in June 2024.

Too insane to be real?

🧑‍⚖️ Meet the Inmates:

  • Daisy Link, 29 – Charged with murder, in custody since 2022
  • Joan Depaz, 23 – Also charged with murder, in custody at the same time

Both were housed in adjacent cells at the Miami-Dade facility.

💌 How They Communicated:

According to interviews with WSVN 7 News and People, Link and Depaz began talking through the shared air conditioning vent. That led to:

  • Passing handwritten notes and photos
  • Developing an emotional connection
  • Planning to conceive a child — without ever physically meeting

🧪 How Did They Conceive?

According to both inmates:

  • Depaz collected semen daily, rolled it in Saran Wrap “like a cigarette,” and passed it through the vent on a makeshift clothesline made from bedding.
  • Link would pull the line into her cell, extract the sample, and use a yeast infection applicator to self-inseminate.

“I placed it inside of the applicator,” Link told WSVN, “and from there, yeah, I administered it.”

👶 A Miracle Baby?

After several attempts, Link became pregnant.

She gave birth to a healthy daughter in June 2024, while still incarcerated. DNA tests confirmed Joan Depaz as the biological father. The baby now lives with Link and is visited virtually by Depaz from a separate facility.

🔍 Official Response

  • Miami-Dade Corrections confirmed both inmates are in custody.
  • An internal affairs investigation is ongoing to determine how the materials were transferred and whether procedures were violated.

Despite the bizarre method, fertility experts interviewed by WSVN say it’s not impossible — just incredibly rare.

“I can’t believe it worked,” Link said.
Depaz called it a miracle, comparing it to “the Virgin Mary.”

✅ Final Verdict: TRUE

Yes — this actually happened in a Miami jail.
Two inmates, without ever touching, successfully conceived a baby using ingenuity, a vent, and a lot of patience.
