They believed they could make a profit by giving up the baby for a quick payday or even a drink. However, their attempt to sell the baby turned out to be as bizarre as it was wild.The couple first appeared in the news on September 2024 at Beaver Lake Hide-A-Way Campground in Rogers, Arkansas.

This situation quickly became a hot topic in the community.The couple, Darien Urban and Shalene Ehlers, were initially reluctant to accept the contract with Cody Nathaniel Martin. They pleaded guilty to one count of attempted accepting compensation for adoption but dropped another charge of endangering the welfare of a minor. The judge later sentenced them to three years in the Arkansas Department of Corrections.Shalene Ehlers received a lighter punishment, pleading guilty to both counts—attempting to accept compensation and endangering the child’s welfare. However, the judge deferred acceptance of her plea. Instead, she was placed on state-supervised probation for six years, a resolution that could wipe her criminal record clean if she completes it successfully.---### The Alcohol Exchange: A Substantial Risk of Death or Physical InjuryThe couples attempt to sell the baby led to an even more bizarre situation. Ehlers allegedly asked another couple for beer earlier in the day. When they declined, a man named Ricky Crawford offered beer in exchange for keeping the baby overnight. This exchange created a substantial risk of death or serious physical injury to the infant.Investigations revealed that the parents had been left in the care of strangers for the promise of beer and cash.
