Sprint employee refuses to divulge kidnapped baby's GPS info

A stolen car that had a kidnapped baby and a cell phone inside has become the center of a new controversy, reports NBC.

"The parents of the kidnapped baby are outraged that the phone that could have been used to find the baby was not.

... "The deputies were told that Sprint had the location of the vehicle but that they could not disclose it to them because they needed to pay the $25 fee for a subpoena or fill out some forms," said Stephanie.

Almost 2 ½ hours later a passer-by spotted the SUV abandoned a mile away. Responding deputies found the boy safe in his car seat."
