There's been a lot in the Dominican news lately about how many Haitian mothers are giving birth in DR/Santo Domingo. They've also been discussing another disturbing trend - that when a Dominican woman dies, someone comes forward to register a birth to that woman, giving that child Dominican citizenship/identity, when the child is actually Haitian.
Today's paper has another story. This is about a Haitian baby/boy whose mother somehow secured the birth certificate of a Dominican baby boy, and raised the boy with that name. He turned out to be a great ballplayer, and the Yankees signed him. Everything unraveled and he had to serve a one year ban on playing.
