Spain arrests Dutch woman wanted in Netherlands for sexually exploiting children
The police in Spain have arrested a Dutch woman who is wanted in the Netherlands for sexually exploiting children, among other child sex abuse-related crimes. She is now also suspected in Spain of child abandonment, the newspaper El País reported.
According to the newspaper, the woman lost custody of her two children, aged 12 and 13. She abducted them, along with two other Dutch children, and fled the Netherlands. The two other children are 16 and 17 and had been staying at the same place of safety as her two children.
On December 7, the Spanish police found a 13-year-old girl, the woman’s daughter, and a 17-year-old boy on the street in Alcalá de Xivert. They told the police that the woman had abandoned them and left with the other two children.
The police launched an investigation and traced the woman to the nearby town of Alcossebre. They caught her in a car along with her 12-year-old son and a 16-year-old boy. The Spanish police arrested her for child abandonment.
According to El País, all four children are in good health and have been taken to a foster care center until the Netherlands can assume guardianship of them. The woman was remanded into custody pending extradition.
In the Netherlands, the woman is suspected of sexually exploiting children, possessing child sex abuse images, human trafficking, drug trafficking, and deprivation of liberty. 
Of course, drugs were involved; they always are in candidates for Worst Mother of the Year. Kids and drugs don't mix, ever!
