Man gets life in prison for kidnapping baby cut from womb
FARGO, N.D. (AP) — A North Dakota man was sentenced Monday to life in prison for conspiring to kidnap a baby that his girlfriend had cut from their neighbor's body and lying to police about it.
William Hoehn, 33, was found not guilty last month of conspiracy to commit murder in the August 2017 death of 22-year-old Savanna Greywind of Fargo. Brooke Crews admitted that she sliced Greywind's baby from her womb and is serving life in prison without the possibility of parole in that killing.
Hoehn denied knowing anything about Crews' plan to kill Greywind and take her baby. But he admitted to hiding the newborn and giving false information to law enforcement to cover up the crime.
