Oklahoma man arrested for 'planning rape of newborn baby'
A man in Oklahoma conspired with a pregnant woman to rape her soon-to-be-born child, police have alleged.
Daniel Thomas J. Deffner, 39, was arrested in Yukon after authorities say he was planning to molest and torture the baby when its mother, who he was messaging over Facebook, gave birth.
The Midwest City woman, it is alleged, did not just agree to the sick fantasies being carried out on her child - she said she wanted to actively take part herself.
Canadian County Sheriff Chris West said the case was 'one of, if not the, sickest things I've ever heard of'.

KFOR reported that he added: 'I can't describe the evil and deranged details of what they were planning to do to this innocent and defenseless baby.'
Deffner is also alleged to have had around seven pictures of an 11-year-old girl he had manipulated into sending naked images of herself.
Police also said Deffner had arranged to meet up with the girl later this year.
Sheriff West added: 'It sickens me to no end that an 11-year-old girl spent any amount of time alone with such a sick and demented individual as Deffner. I pray that baby wasn't scarred for life.'

Deffner was arrested on June 9 and is facing charges for procuring a minor in child photography, possession of a controlled dangerous substance and one count of possession of drug paraphernalia.
He was already on probation for drug charges and child neglect.
Deffner, who remains in custody, has had his bond put at $101,500.
Police worry there could be more victims in the case.
The pregnant woman in the case - whose identity has not been released - has now given birth, according to KOCO, and her newborn baby and other children have been put into protective services.
Her case is being handled by the Midwest City Police Department.
