Ann Pettway, the 50-year old woman who snatched a newborn from a hospital more than two decades ago and raised the child as her own, has been sentenced to 12 years in prison by a judge. She plead guilty to the charges of kidnapping, and described how she (in 1987) took a train from her Connecticut home to the hospital, and posed as a nurse. After kidnapping a baby, she raised the child for 20 years as her own.
