Tampa Police Reinforce Florida Safe Haven Law Awareness

According to a statement from Tampa Police Chief Lee Bercaw, “The loss of a child is always a tragedy. As our department actively investigates this incident, we want all expectant mothers to know there are resources available.”

The Safe Haven law in Florida “allows parents to anonymously surrender an unharmed newborn infant seven days old or younger to any Fire Station, EMS station, or hospital staffed by full-time emergency medical technicians, paramedics, or firefighters,” according to the TPD.

“There will be no questions asked, and no charges will be filed for surrendering a newborn under the Safe Haven Law unless the infant has signs of abuse or neglect.”
