Nebraska has what is called a “safe haven” law, which allows a parent to abandon a child at any hospital without fear of prosecution. The point was that new mothers who for one reason or another couldn’t care for their infants could leave them at a hospital rather than a garbage bin after giving birth in the girls’ bathroom during the prom. What has happened though is that an 11 year old in Omaha and a 15 year old in Lincoln have been abandoned at hospitals, and under the new law the parents cannot be prosecuted. I wonder if this new law would work for problem employees? You’ve got a clerk who won’t do his job, just drop him off at Bryan Hospital. Cashier won’t count back change, abandon her at Lincoln General. Meat wrapper won’t clean out the sink, drop him at St. E’s back door. Great. Problem solved.
