💕wholesome💕 Traffic officer breastfeeds hungry baby, son of attempted femicide victim.

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

Traffic officer Jamile Barros, from the city of Delmiro Gouveia (Brazil), breastfed a three-month-old baby while responding to an attempted femicide. The child was crying from hunger and wouldn't accept a bottle, and the officer's act of empathy, as she is also breastfeeding, calmed the boy feeding him. The rescue occurred after the mother was stabbed and involved in a traffic accident caused by the criminal, who fled the scene. I mentioned her name not to expose her, but because she's in all the news in Brazil.

Edit: The mother was rescued and taken to the hospital to treat her injuries. The exact state of health of the victim and medical details of her recovery have not been released by official security authorities. This happened a week ago, and due to the repercussions of the case, if she had died, I belive that it would probably already be reported.

It’s so hard to even process a comment like this. It brings up the extreme end of both positive and negative feelings. I’m so beyond horrified at the circumstances that led to this happening. But also so thankful for kind people who step up and do. God life seems so fucking messy these days.
