A Florida couple, Tiffany Score and Steven Mills, gave birth to a baby girl named Shea after a fertility clinic mistakenly implanted an embryo not genetically theirs. The biological parents of Shea were identified as Patient 004 through DNA testing. Score and Mills, who are white, are raising Shea, a child genetically unrelated to them. They reached a custody agreement with the biological parents to retain permanent custody of the child. According to gdelt, a judge in Seminole County, Florida, approved the mutually devised custody arrangement. The fertility clinic involved in the embryo mix-up is the Fertility Center of Orlando, which has ceased operations. Score and Mills have filed a medical malpractice lawsuit against the clinic, which remains open, according to fox35orlando.com.
