Sheriff Judd seems to be a man who balances a combination of no-nonsense discipline, and compassion. He walks that line very well.
Except he won’t get body-cams for his officers despite having the funding. His lame excuse is that private information will get out, despite *every* other police department in the nation not having that problem considering they have complete control over what is edited and released
@@Tortilla.Reform Oh wow, for some reason I just assumed that all police departments had body cams.
If she wants it? She left it there to die. Take it to someone who wants it.
Someone is going to find out she’s no longer pregnant. They’ll find out! Someone helped her have the baby. She had all that attached. Someone maybe helped her have the baby.
Thank you GOD ALMIGHTY FOR SHERRIF JUDD , IN JESUS NAME AMEN .
Hopefully, this infant will be raised by a loving family, and have a wonderfully productive, and blessed life.
Yes thank you member of public for finding this infant and getting this kid to safety.
Yeah white folks
@@punkrockcowgirl6929 no the police did not find the baby. a lady and her husband heard baby and found it
@@punkrockcowgirl6929 oh the irony of your calling someone dum dum, when you are wrong about a fundamental part of the story... The police did not find the baby.
More likely she'll go into the foster system where she'll be abused
Angel Grace is a perfect name. I hope she gets the most loving family.
This baby saved her own life by screaming for help! Praying for the precious baby.
The people who found her saved her,,, they could have ignored it thinking its animials,,, or they could have not been home.
That 50 degrees comment got me.
I believe God pressed upon their hearts to investigate further when they heard those cries! God bless this little Angel and may she go to a beautiful loving family 🙏🏻❤️
Are you joking save its own life !!!
She's a survivor!
Thank God the child was found.
So grateful for the neighbor who heard the baby and found her. Bless their hearts. 💞
At least leave the baby where he/she can be found.
@Leeanne right?! If you have a c-section you'd be in the hospital for about that long.
@@leeanne8410how long should it be?
Weber,
As old as necessary. There should be no age-limit. People, especially those that are poor, or very young, whose circumstances are unstable, will change their mind sometimes about keeping their baby.
While shopping we noticed two anxious teens hanging around the pregnancy testing kits, I could overhear one saying "we don't have enough money". We handed them $20. I said "talk to your parents or an adult you trust" and then walked away. They're scared, uninformed teens not knowing who to turn to. The safe haven law should be discussed in schools, at the very least pamphlets should be handed out. My children were raised knowing there was nothing too big we couldn't handle as a family. I identified my parent's mistakes and didn't repeat them...praying a great forever home is found for this little blessing.
I always taught my girls that a pregnancy and birth of a baby weather unwed or in teens no matter what is a blessing and would be welcomed never any reason to feel abortion as a answer. My mother would often mention that we better not embaoher by being a teen pregnancy. I live everyday regretting my mistake of having a abortion when I was 17. I wouldn’t of down so if my mom wouldn’t of made it clear that it was not acceptable. I hate that mistake everyday
I’m so thankful my girls and I have a very close and open relationship. When I hear stories like this, I talk to them about it.
I always tell them “I’m your biggest supporter and will help you in anyway possible. But if you lie to me I won’t be able to help you.” I might get upset in the moment but I will fight for you with my life.
This makes me so sad. You can literally take them to a fire station, police station, hospital. Hell drop them on a doorstep of someone you trust
My Dad use to say we can't deal with a lie but we can deal with the truth whatever it is.
@@jodaciarmani8264 I feel your pain, My husband and I had an abortion for medical reasons. For the first 10 years my husband would remind me of the age our child would have been, that was 30 years ago. We blindly followed the doctor's orders. I know I'd give my life for the children that I birthed,. I should have left it in GOD's hands instead of the doctor's hands. I too live with my mistake.
Your parents will be disappointed at first with you but they're not going to kill you. They'll help you if you talk with them. Don't listen to your friends. Nothing blesses the heart more then a baby that you made.
This man is a National Treasure !
Michigan needs him! ❤
Sheriff Grady Judd is simply the best! Thank God for him! ✝️
Nooooo he’s really not. He likes to think he’s a legend, when in actuality he’s nothin but a joke!
Make adoption more easy sheriff. People shouldn't have to jump through hoops to adopt a child. What the good sheriff doesn't tell us is an adoption can cost between 5 and 40k
Yeah, national treasure of tyrants
Thank heavens this baby girl was saved. She will be bring so much joy to someone.
Mainly a certain sheriff when he is able to bust her for prostitution in about fifteen years.
What a beautiful name you gave this precious girl! Thank You Sheriff Grady Judd and thanks to the couple who found her ♥️👍👏🙏⭐️
a beautiful name indeed.
I hope her adoptive parents keep the name….except for the last name unknown part…
I just wish the Safe Haven law covered any age child not just newborns a week old or less. Maybe if that happened some of these children being abused or murdered might be saved. I think this should apply to all States.
I do too.
I agree
AGREED!!!
IN the US a parent can give their children up if they don't want them or can't care for them. However, most parents, even bad parents, won't give up children voluntarily. Many of these horrible parents get all kinds of government benefits. HOwever, well off people abuse their children but would never give them up. It isn't that a person can't, they won't. There are mental and emotional ties that have nothing to do with love.
I very much agree 👍
That sheriff is amazing. He seems like the type of person who would gladly take that baby. He speaks of little Angel Grace like he’s the proud papa. He is a shining example of what all LEO’s should aspire to be.
Thank you Sheriff Judd. I saw in your eyes the compassion for this infant. It is you and those like you that engenders trust . But mostly it's the compassion I saw. When I was born, I didn't go home as I needed so many surgeries that I had to have to be able to take formula. My biological father had run out on mother and me. I wound up being raised by my maternal grand parents. So as I was watching the video all of a sudden the tears began to flow. I am 66 years old now and was not able to father children. My heart was broken for this baby but also thankful that that she was found.
You have a Heavenly Father who created and loves you very much! Me too.
Praise Father God. Father has a great plan for Angel Grace
He just wants to make sure the child can grow up so his officers can violate is rights someday
😔🙏
@@luv2bbq you actually sound like a pos wannabe that has spent time in lock up and have a hard on for the sheriff. Grow up and live your life right without harming or robbing others.
Please lord keep your hands on that sweet baby and the people who found her.
Glad baby was found alive 😇
Blessings to the people who found and saved this precious baby.
I wonder how much bone crushing, emotional pain this tiny newborn baby will feel one day when she learns about her story...I pray at some time she'll get a copy of this video to watch over & over...Perhaps one day she'll get to meet Sheriff Judd & her rescuers, face-to-face, to really understand she *was* already loved by so MANY people, upon her discoverey...🙏
Beautifully worded.
Also be able to read all these replies🌟🤧🤗🙏🙏🙏🙏🙌✝️🙌💞
That could be so comforting to her...
I am sure she will see this with love, and understand how much love as a community comes together with compassion and care.
many abandoned children are healthy and happy... depends on how the story is told... it can be... a wonderful story of redemption and loving choice the parents...
America need a sheriff Judd in every county
AMEN to that!!!
Yep, America Need👍
Don't choke on the boot.
Support your local sheriff, many of our local LE are awesome!
God bless those people who found her and you as well Sheriff! She must be held accountable for sure.
Sheriff Judd is amazing! Every time I see him, I’m more and more impressed. He’s very well spoken and intelligent. He loves the law and his job.
How does that boot leather taste?
Bless that couple for rescuing that precious baby girl 💜
Thank God she is found and safe
Best Sheriff ! Love the name he gave her!
Glad your people found and saved this little sweetheart. Great job to all the men & women involved.
Thank goodness for the couple that heard the baby's cries & went to check it out. Bless them for finding & keeping her safe.
You sir are a rare gem….and I thank you for your service
Sheriff is correct, I am 1 of those 1,000 ppl that would love to give a baby a loving home!
God bless Sheriff Grady! And the couple that saved this baby, so glad they didn’t just blow it off as a hurt cat in the woods!
Bless you All.❤
Me too!!
Why don’t you go and adopt one of the thousands in foster care, big talker?
@@sookie4195 right on!
Me too I would love to have any child
Good, go on down and sign up to be a foster parent first. You will be putting on a long ass waiting list to adopt and if you don't have about 10k laying around, you can forget it. It costs to adopt a child, a big cost to agencies and courts, etc.
Years ago while working as a paramedic in Ft Worth TX on my first shift back after the birth of my first son we ran a call of a new born little girl abondoned in a dryer at a apartment complex, I've thought about her thur the years and hope she's living a good life.
I live right down the road from where this baby was found! Absolutely insane. Thank God that couple found Angel Grace. 💖
"There has to be accountability and responsibility in our society."
Agreed!
100% right
I agree, but unfortunately, he is still in office.
@@dokidaddy1056 way to deflect there, buddy.
Sheriff Judd is a very special man who is strong enough to take care of justice yet has a heart of gold . As the mom of Pa. Deputy Sheriff, I'm thankful for leaders like him. They have such a hard, dangerous & stressful job to do every day. God bless you Sir & all officers who take on this type of profession it's certainly not for the money .🙏 Most folks have no idea what goes into this career. We love all of you all over this country ❤️ 💕
GOD BLESS YOUR SON. FROM PENNSYLVANIA ALSO
@@Woodstock53 Thanks so much 🙏
As the mom of "Pa.deputy" Pennsylvania sherrif?
@@polishpat95 😅 Yes, Pennsylvania. That did read silly didn't it ?
Sheriff Judd is a amazing human being and I wish him long years and good health helping the community! I hope everything will line up for this precious child from now on!
How sweet he named her Angel Grace.💗 SO fortunate sweet baby girl didn't die from exposure or wasn't eaten by an animal, especially since she still had her placenta attached. 🤬 This was just beyond CRUEL!
Great point. Many animals eat their placenta and would definitely have eventually found her from it.
I am a single father with full custody of my current two daughters with disabilities. If this angel needs a home. My daughter's and I would love to add her to our family, with love and compassion. She is a gift for us to remember life is to always be cherished.
Life is precious. You sir are a fine human being. May you be blessed by Father God the Most High. Surely He is watching over your family. So wonderful of you to even think of caring for another. People like you give us hope for humanity.
THAT IS HONORABLE! Grady wouldn't do that. I literally hope that happens for you and your family!
Amen❤
Sir you don’t need anymore added to your plate and as a single parent, especially of disabled children, you really don’t need to be adding to that. There are PLENTY of people that literally pay to have children because they can’t, that would be better suited
I would gladly take this baby girl. I have 2 children. I always wanted 3. I had a miscarriage when I was 18. So, I waited to have children in my 30s. I am in my early 40s and would love another girl. I personally could NEVER abandon a baby.
Thank God the precious baby is safe.
I worry for the mom. She may be a victim of trafficking or in an abusive situation. She is in need of medical care.
So true. Compassion is crucial in this situation. Who knows what the mother's circumstances are?
Two wrongs don’t make a right.
@@AB-ce4ge Compassion is not blind to wrong or right. Compassion seeks to alleviate suffering.
What if the mother's child was taken from her and left to die? Just let's find out what happened.
This is an excellent point. The mother may have had no choice in the situation if she’s being trafficked.
She left the baby in the woods to die.
Bless the couple who found this little angel and to the sheriff
Bless the people that found this baby may this little Angel grow and be with a loving happy positive family and keep in touch with the people that found her.
How sad. Thank God baby Angel Grace was found!
I don't see how god gets any credit. The people who heard the baby crying are the ones who found it.
WOW! I'M A SINGLE FATHER OF 4 BEAUTIFUL GIRLS, THAT BEING DONE TO A LITTLE HELPLESS BABY IS MOST EVIL THING YOU COULD EVER DO! JUST BREAKS MY HEART THINKING THIS IS BEING DONE, THANKFULLY THIS BABY WANTED TO SURVIVE! THIS BABY IS SPIECAL
Beautiful comment!!!
@@alissonjalil4729 JUST HURTS TO THINK WHAT COULD BE DONE TO A LITTLE BABY! THAT BABY IS A FIGHTER!!
@@FOUNDITBURIED This story really hit home for me! I went through hell to have my children. I have chronic lupus and went through years of infertility and miscarriages then premature babies and infant death. There are so many people like myself out there that adore children and animals and will take them in and raise them. I currently am raising a house of 4 by myself. My grandmother raised her 4 alone and 27 foster children! God bless you w/love & light
@@alissonjalil4729 PROUD OF YOU FOR NOT GIVING UP!!
WHY ARE YOU SHOUTING? DO YOU THINK NO ONE CAN HEAR YOU?
Thank God for the people who found this adorable beautiful baby I pray the baby gets a forever loving home and never harmed again
I'm so happy this beautiful baby girl is healthy and safe, also happy that sheriff Judd is taking care of business..
Bless everyone for saving Angel Grace! ❤️
Love to Sheriff Judd and all of our Polk County Deputies. Your community is grateful.
BLESS THAT LADY AND HER HUSBAND.
He did an excellent job explaining this situation
Oh thank goodness that this baby is ok and the neighbors were aware.
I am not from Florida.I wish we had more Sheriff Judds in this world.He is just an awesome Sheriff and big shout out to the wonderful caring couple that went out and searched and found this little baby.I pray the very best for the sweet little angel...Much Love everyone !
Amen ❤🙏
Grady is the best sheriff out there an so Tru he saving lives daily
Can he help targeted individuals
@@debanda4504 What's that?
@@debanda4504 instead of asking that question on social media, do some research. .
Hell yeah! Grady's a TV personality now.
He doesn't give a s*** about true investigating crimes.
My comment got deleted
title 18
I love this man! I wished there were more like him - people who actually care!!!
It saddens me to know how cruel humanity can be to a new born. It is scary to be alone in the woods and it is cold outside without a mothers touch.. I hope someone comes forward and adopts this beautiful baby. I love Sheriff Judd, he is a beautiful man with a wonderful soul. I see the tenderness and his caring in his eyes. May he always be healthy and safe. God will always bless Sheriff Judd with victory, inner strength and prosperity. He is a special gem. in God's eyes.
God Bless this child
You are such a great Sheriff & those under your authority. What a beautiful name for a child Angel Grace!
So pleased the baby is OK and will get the life it deserves. I hope the mother is OK, you never know what she is going through.
🙏 ♥ I hope she is alright too
Exactly.. Could have been anybody that left the baby there.
I cannot imagine a little baby laying outside at midnight crying. It’s heartbreaking like nothing I can even imagine. That little baby my God.
Wifey and I love sheriff Judd. He is a prime example of what a law enforcement officer should be. Every sheriff's office needs a man like him in charge. Down to earth, wise and obviously christian moral values.
, domestic conference, ect?
except he is being awfully judgemental that the mother did something why not include human traffic
Christian values? This guy is the opposite of Jesus Christ. He promotes killing your neighbor, ignoring the poor, and does it all on camera for political purposes. You need to go re-read the gospel.
Amen!
Don’t put religion in this conversation. Damn.
I cannot even begin to imagine what that mama must be going through...for her to have left her baby girl all alone in the woods like that...she myst have been going through sonething awfully traumatic. The baby being born healthy means mama wasnt on drugs...my geuss is mama is still a baby herself.💔😭
🙏 ♥ I'm thinking you're right and the biological mother is very young. She may have been forced to leave her baby or someone else may have left the baby out there. Glad the baby is healthy and alive
Keep making excuses. She's a cold and calloused psychopath, nothing more to the story.
THANK YOU, Sheriff Judd, you look so very 'taken & truly touched' by this event, you are a loving person, you are a child-lover & you certainly named this little baby absolutely appropriately. GOD BLESS YOU Sheriff Judd & God bless & protect this little innocent baby. The biggest 'thank you' to the neighbours who did not just dismiss the crying but rescued by their investigating.
As a mother, grandmother and human being, I ache to hold this precious life in my arms. I don't think this world will ever be right, if this kind of mindset continues. Angel Grace is a precious life and the world holds their breath in hope for her.
So glad she was found safe, she is an Angel! My daughter has been trying to have a baby to no avail, she would of been so grateful for this little baby!
Mine too.
I say that God has blessed this baby because many will line up to love her
Love Sheriff Grady Judd. One of a kind. Need more like him.
This breaks my damn heart, I would take that baby girl in the blink of an eye. I have been wanting another baby and we have been trying to have one for 13 years and we are on our 3rd round of IVF. I pray this little angel goes to a family that will love her unconditionally
I love that Sheriff Judd gave this sweet little miracle such a fitting name, Angel Grace 🙏 Lanou. Its wonderful to hear that she's healthy and doing well. So grateful these wonderful people found her because this could have turned out much differently and not in a good way. Even though what she did was wrong, she could have brought her in a safe environment. I hope the end of this story turns out positive and I'm quite sure this little Angel who is already loved by many is cared for by a very special family. 💗. Much love and respect for Sheriff Judd.
Thank goodness for the neighbors who searched and found the child
if i raised that baby i would not tell her origin story until at least she was old enough to handle it , my grandmother who bore my father was found at someones front door back in 1910 or so , why leave the baby the woods , thats insane
Well post partum, poverty, fear of a teenage pregnancy could all be a factor l. This child was fated to be found and will grow up, have a life by the grace if neighbors who chose to investigate the screams of an infant.
He is one of the best story tellers. I imagine he is a great leader. Terrific communication skills.
You have to worry if the mother gave up the baby or if someone else made that decision to abandon the baby. This is Mrs. Ace X, in Florida.
Just saw this. Another person also mentioned the same thing.
OMG this child was blessed to be found 🙏🏿🙏🙏🏼🙏🏻🙏🏽
Thank the dear Lord this little baby was heard & the neighbors pursued her cries. They saved her life for sure!
This has caused Grandad Judd some pain of the heart. Hope things work out for everyone.Stay safe little one, stay safe.
My mom lives in Polk county and wants to adopt her. I told her to reach out to the Sheriff office to get more information. So happy the baby is alive and well. So sad. FL has a safe haven law, you can give up a child with no questions asked within 7 days of being born.
Sign up to be a foster parent! What a blessing you could be to a child. ❤️
In missouri, it's less than a year old.
Your Mom already had her family. Let a childless couple adopt this little one. If your Mom wants to raise more children, foster or adopt from the pool of kids who have been waiting for a family for years.
@@user-bo1rj2xu2s What makes you think it's your decision on what she does? If she wants to try and adopt this baby it's her decision, not yours. Stay triggered my friend.
@@Swerewolf Relax, silly. These are called YT comments, not decisions.It's not about you or me, it's about the little one. Peace, silly.
Thank God those people found her and did the right thing!
Wow, this is incredible. I wish the baby a long healthy life in a loving home. ❤️
That baby girl is truly blessed, let’s pray her adoptive folks bless her again.
Thank God they were able to find her before the animals did or even exposure 🙏
Best Sheriff' in all of Florida.
God Bless Judd and his family
Love to see him run for President 2024
Correction: Best Sheriff in the whole country.
Certainly agree wish upstate New York had one like him. Compassion man and doesn’t stop til he finds the answers he looking for ..
America's sheriff.
@@majorlaff8682 I 👍 agree
Love to see him run for president
2024
We need more Sheriff Judd’s in this world. He amazes me and shows you how all LE should be!
Thank You Sheriff, for you being an Angel as well.
My admiration and respect for Sheriff Judd just reached an all time high!
Right. That beautiful name he gave her
Except he won’t get body-cams for his officers despite having the funding. His lame excuse is that private information will get out, despite *every* other police department in the nation not having that problem considering they have complete control over what is edited and released
@@Tortilla.Reform stop copying and pasting the same deleterious comment!! If you're so darned concerned, contact his office and obtain answers. What is the irrefutable source for your statement that "every other police department in the nation has them"? SMH
@@vickimeyers2672 You didn’t read what I said, try again. i said every other department with bodycams doesn’t have the problem he made up as an excuse to never get them. But keep letting your defensive emotions cloud your ability to comprehend things you choose to speak out on
@@vickimeyers2672 How do you know his office hasn’t been contacted for answers and stonewalled as a government organization who has control over the information they share with the public? Where are your baseless assumptions coming from? Ignorance or emotion?
America's sheriff is at it again, damn fine interview! Not all heroes wear capes
This is just heart breaking, there are so many families who would welcome a baby as a blessing. I hope the mother is safe and gets the care she needs.
I hope this child doesn't fall into the hands of the wrong person. I pray this.
Thank God! ❤❤❤
Amen
Miracle’s happen every day 😊
My prayers are with the baby and thank God for the lady and man who saved this baby.
My prayers go out to the baby and the couple who found her. I pray "Angel Grace" has a blessed life!
It was so lucky that those folks went to see and found her. She's lucky and hope after this,she will have a happy life and have kids herself. Sheriff Judd is such a good man,Polk county will miss him when he retires.👶🇺🇸🚔
Boot licking?
Men like him don't retire until they die. Let's hope that's a long, long way off.
Has he stated he’s retiring?!? He’s in his 70’s already,& I don’t know but of One person who wants him to retire-his wife!!! I think if he has His way, he’d prefer “leaving us”& his job, on 🥰🙏the way to a call!!!
@@cynthiamgrooms8195 Hi. I haven't heard he has or is retiring,just when he does he will be missed so much by the folks in Polk county. Thanks.🇺🇸🚔
I'm so glad the baby is okay. It's good to hear good news.
God bless all of them.
THANK GOD FOR YOU MR JUDD THANK GOD FOR YOU AND THOSE PARENTS WHO FOUND THAT BABY
What a beautiful name you gave this precious little baby!
Wow,hope we can do more teaching young women where they can safely leave their babies.
Welcome to the world baby Angel Grace. We are excited you are here and send best wishes for lots of love and more love to follow you where ever you go.
Sheriff Grady Judd,
Thank you so much for your Love and Compassion. God bless you and your family!
I had the same thing happen recently. My ears perked up at the cry in the woods behind our house. Thankfully it was a kitten. I would happily help any mother in that situation. I'm a mom of 4, soon to be 5. We have previously taken in a mother and newborn. Please don't abandon your baby. 🙏🏼💗
Your a amazing Sherrif. I wish we had men like you in California.
So happy the baby was found and thank God for the members of public who didnt ignore that sound but went to investigate.
That baby cried because it was afraid that something was wrong just to sad 😭 so many people would love to have that baby 🙏🏽
Sheriff Judd is what many of us are missing in our communities. I wish we had a lot more with his wisdom and compassion.
From someone who tried desperately to have children, to hear that someone disposed of this beautiful little life in this manner, makes me furious. Thank God that she's okay! Thank you to the people who took the time to go and look for her.
How many unwanted babies or foster children have you adopted? None? Shut up.
Same 🙋🏻♀️
Amen.
🙏🏻✝️👶🏼✝️🙏🏻
Exactly. I lost 2 to miscarriage and it broke me at the time. To think someone would just throw away such a priceless gift…unimaginable
It makes everyone furious.
Thank god she was saved
Sheriff Judd is wonderful a family man, father and community protector. Thank you so much for doing the best job. People who work with him have a wonderful time. Just priceless 😂
OMG... I cannot believe it. I would love another child. By the grace of God, Bless this child.
Thank God they found her. Thank God you have sherriff Judd who is a good man.
