What is wrong with some people?!?

PLANT CITY, Fla. - A 2-month-old is back in the arms of her parents and the wife of a top Pittsburgh Pirates minor league prospect is suspected of taking the infant from a health clinic outside Tampa, authorities said Tuesday.
Amalia Tabata Pereira, 43, was being questioned by Florida detectives in Manatee County, where the girl was found unharmed Tuesday afternoon, a day after she was taken from the clinic. Plant City Chief of Police Bill McDaniel said authorities are looking to charge Pereira with false imprisonment.
She is the wife of Jose Tabata, 20, an outfielder and one of the top three prospects for the Pirates, who train in Bradenton, which is in the county where the infant was found. In a statement, Pirates president Frank Coonelly said they have received “no indication that Jose is believed to have had any involvement in this matter.”

I can't figure out how on earth a 20-year-old hot* baseball player married a 43-year-old apparent crazy woman. I guess you don't always recognize 'crazy' until it's too late.

*I'm just assuming he's hot because he plays baseball. Okay I guess not all professional baseball players have pretty faces and are hot. Just nice to look at in baseball pants.
