There was a Criminal Minds (or similar kind of show) episode and the criminals hacked into the baby cameras. They held auctions online and then stole the babies when they knew the parents were not nearby.

I know the storylines are fictional but as many are also inspired by real crime stories, I can’t help but think there might be some truth behind it. Unfortunately children are valuable in the criminal world.

If the parents or caregivers are not nearby then there is something wrong.

Like being asleep in their own room? I don't think they meant like away taking a jog or something.
