NEW: The woman who filmed and intervened to help a young boy who was being neglected by his mother got *fired* from her job for stepping in.
Absolutely insane if true.
The woman who filmed the video, Felicia, says she was fired for posting the video.
"Hi, my name is Felicia, and I’m fundraising for my bills unfortunately. I lost my job on 1/20/2024 by helping a child who were being neglected by his own mother," she said in a Go Fund Me post
"On 1/17/2024 a young lady came in Wal-Mart with her child & the child only had on a Diaper!!!! It’s like 20 something degrees or it was in the teens."
"The child had on no clothes, no socks, nor shoes, and I took it upon myself to record it for the child sake."
"No I wasn’t thinking about the consequences at the time... my main focus was on that innocent poor child and to get him some help."
"I posted the video on my facebook page bc I wanted to reach out to some of her family members, and case workers."
"The video I posted gotten 3.1 k shares in an hour my manager called my phone and told me to take the video down immediately, and I did!!!!"
"Thursday and Friday were my off days. When I came back to work Saturday 1/20/24 my manager fired me 2 hours before I got off. Now Im jobless bc I was only trying to help and save that baby life."
My ex traumatized me so bad I get flashbacks of us together n instantly get overwhelmed w/ anxiety I wouldn’t wish it on anyone honestly like tht boy did me bad & I thought tht was love I can’t wait to heal but it’s hard especially when ur brain constantly reminds u of memories
