Then , the Doctor called the police, which imprisoned the father minutes after arriving.The reason? He was the main suspect of such an aberrant event.Although finally, Tiburcio was released, since they found no strong evidence against him and no other suspect was arrested in the case.

The explanation

According to the medical record registered at the American Academy of Obstetrics and Gynecology, Lina Medina could be mother with just 5 years because she obviously had an abnormally early hormonal development, in fact three months after she was born she already had pubic hair and at 2 years and eight months she began to menstruate.
